Sex is required for every human to exist. I'm sorry it scares you but you're kids are going to be fucking fine.

Akchually in-vitro fecundation is a thing.

This just means that penetrative sex with a penis is not required. Doctors can either inseminate people directly, or implant fertilized embryos.

But the only effective way to harvest sperm is through ejaculation. I.e. masturbation. So you're really not avoiding sex altogether. You're just going about it differently.

Do you consider masterbation sex? because uhh it isn't

[–] Neato@kbin.social 7 points 10 months ago

Solo sex. It's definitely sexual at least.

Gamers say they want parents to actually get involved and monitor the content kids interact with in games. A parent actually does monitor what their kids play, and suddenly gamers lose their minds.

In this case, OP is stating that he thinks no company should be making games with any type of sexual content. Just in case his kids want to play that game.

That goes beyond "monitoring what their kids play" and that's why people are reacting strongly.
