RE :”I don’t want any of my boys or my husband, for that matter, to develop an unhealthy, unrealistic idea about women and relationships.

This reminds me of my childhood. When I was a kid my dad liked R rated movies that were crime/action based themes that had violence and some nudity. Mom couldn't stand those films, in fact she loved Roger's and Hammerstein Musicals GAG and comedies.

So when I was about 13 or so Dad started taking me with him, in fact at that age those were the movies I was dying to see. Sometimes it was a drive-in and there was no telling what the 2nd and 3rd features were.

When I was 17 yrs old cable finally reached my neighborhood and my dad got us HBO to avoid those movie ticket prices. My youngest sister was about 7 then.

Funny thing is, both my sisters claim (as do their husbands) that they saved themselves for their husbands, even after us getting HBO and being able to watch R movies. (and yes, it was on all the TVs)

I still look back fondly to those days. Every-so often one of those movies turns up on cable and I think of those times with him.
Lesson 1 we learned : TV is not real.
