Does it? I don't know - you don't know - but how terrifying that our species won't even consider the possibility.
I never thought of my knees and thighs as sexual organs, funnily enough. When did they become out of bounds?
It used to be quite common for someone to grab your leg in a jolly sort of way and I would think nothing nothing of it, unless it was in a seedy sliding- further-up movement, in which case it would be moved without fuss.
Nobody seems to touch each other much at all these days.
Can I your touch your knee Honey ?

Indeed.
In fact, why should the idle brigade bother with taking any responsibility ?
They waste their education - no problem, someone gives you money.
They can't afford a house - again, no problem, a Council gives you one (and makes someone else pay for it).
They waste their money on mobile phones then claim they cannot afford to eat - again, where is the problem? Along comes a "food bank" and gives them food - free !
WHY should they take any responsibility ?
(if they could only work out how to get booze and drugs for free life would be perfect).
Its time we put a stop to this constantly escalating gravy-train once and for all.
If some suffer, so be it - the rest will learn a very valuable lesson.
Wait till you hear this one...
A teenage girl who lives locally is going on a fabulous holiday with her well-off family. It is an island that only has a swish hotel on it, and they are going to be diving mostly. It sounds lovely, but she has asked the doctor for the pill, not for contraceptive purposes, (they don't do that round here) but so she can take the packets back to back and avoid a period ruining the holiday.
A great idea if she was paying, but it was free.
Why is her holiday my problem? And why am I paying towards it? Apparently, this is what "everyone" does if they are going to Glastonbury etc.
