Where did society get the mistaken impression that sex is bad, but
violence is OK?



Nuns in Catholic grammar school routinely used violence on the kids,



"Robert Casey, you bold brazen article, how dare you talk like that!"



but would sure be upset about anything vaguely about sex....



In my experience, such things would make them violent. In fact almost
anything could make an IHM nun violent. Bunch of nutcases, actually.

I had anotehr species of nuns in my school. "Sisters of Mercy" IIRC,
but there
was no mercy if you forgot your homework.....



On the first or second day of 1st grade, the nun teacher had to leave our
classroom for a few minutes. Of course some of us were talking and making
noise, as small kids will. When she got back, she freaked out. Made the
kids line up at her desk and punish each one in turn. Must have been 20
minutes
it took to do all 30 something kids.

Also on the first day, it was time for lunch, as the nun announced it. So
I get out my sandwitch and started eating in my desk. Nun freaks.
How would I know that the school had another room for eating lunch?
Have heard that teachers nowadays are taught to anticipate kids not
knowing such things when they start school....
