Days later and my chest hurts. I wish I wss enrolled there, y'all. I wish I was. Because I'd be asking this professor some embarrassing and pointed questions.

The most they should be saying about infants is that they can experience a form of pleasure from stimulation, PRESUMABLY, because the neural and physical pathways are present at birth. They are underdeveloped, however, and manipulation of the genitalia is abuse. No child should be touched in that way except in the most incidental of ways, when cleansing and bathing and administering necessary medical treatment. That's it! Period! All else is abuse! Let kids be pure and innocent. I won't get into the whole circumcision debate, but some of you may be aware that they didn't used to numb baby boys when performing this operation. That's vile. That kind of trauma so young, how many babies struggled to attach and trust adults? How many behavioral problems stemmed from that one violent act? I shake my head at the so called smartest of the world, who decided it was okay because "they don't feel it anyway". Any mother can tell you different. Okay, i have to go break stuff now. @#$%&

This reminded me of something I saw over 20 years ago. I was working in a person's apartment. There was a baby present that was being changed. When I glanced over I noticed that this child had a full set of pubes! It really disturbed me. I have heard that sexual abuse can bring on early sexual development, but this was not even a toddler, but a months old infant.

I've never heard that it brings early sexual development. But a variety of hormonal and pituitary issues would.
