Okay, normally Mod-Blog posts are entirely family-friendly with not even a hint of something you'd want to have junior not read. But I feel compelled to post something that some parents might not want their kids thinking about. It is not dirty, but it does relate to the reproductive sciences. If this is an issue for you, please stop reading now and skip to the next post.

Still there? OK. this story has my head spinning, and I think it - more than anything else I have read recently - shows how schizophrenic and illogical human nature is. Here is the deal: women are going to plastic surgeons to have their hymens restored to how they were prior to the loss of virginity... so that they can lose their virginity again. Hunh?!
My readers mostly know I am still a virgin at over 30, so maybe I am not qualified to talk about this. But there seems to be something inherently WEIRD about a society that allows their teenagers to lose their virginity at virtually the earliest possible moment (some parents even rent the hotel rooms for after a big dance or buy the alcohol to help) - sending the message that virginity is of little to no value - and then spend thousands of dollars to have it "restored" in their middle age, so that older adults can reexperience deflowering. I can see it sending only two possible (and deeply disturbing) messages: (1) Virginity is not valueable but the process of deflowering is very valuable, or (2) Virginity is too special to be wasted on the young.
Am I reading too much into this? Maybe my married friends can help explain. But all I can think is this is the biggest distortion of the gift of sex/love that the Evil One has tried to pawn off on us yet.
