Trying to figure out people’s actions or thinking — banned on Reddit? WTF.

Opposition to the practice of sexual intercourse
“Interestingly, these two women, Swiney and Elmy, made clear their opposition to the practice of sexual intercourse. This practice has become so sacred that it is almost impossible to imagine any serious challenge being made to it.

Top Guns
