Fun movie, but...

Am I supposed to believe that 12 year olds in 2019 don't know what a handjob is, mistake a sex doll for a CPR doll, get scared by porn and think dildos are weapons?

Yeah that was kind of silly. When I was 12 I knew a hell of a lot more than these dudes, and I'm assuming most 12 year olds do

And kissing... i mean, com on. Guess they never seen their parents be intimate, any romantic movies or the obligatory kiss on the forehead from mom before bedtime. Sad.

Is this a sarcastic post?

[–] HAL 9010 (907) 5 years ago

No.

But I can retract if I remember wrong. Didn't the boys discuss what kissing was? Am I supposed to believe 12-year-old boys do not know what this is? Wasn't there a scene where one of them says "on the mouth" as a proof he knew... and filmed in a way, where he just guessed it.... like he wasn't sure kissing is usually mouth-to-mouth? Again, 12-year-olds, not 3-years-olds.

What does that have to do with a mother kissing her son on the forehead?

"seen their parents be intimate"? What kind of childhood did you have?!

Well, if you see your parents kiss... let us say, a goodbye and a hello kiss... you would not doubt what a kiss is. I hope it is so in most homes. These kids included, and so I find it unbelievable they be as clueless as this movie showed they were...

I saw my parents kiss and show their love for each other. Not in any inappropriate way. In a loving way. And when you grow up for 12 years in a household like this.... you know what a kiss is :)

... besides that, many movies show romantic appropriate kissing... also seen by kids. No, I find it impossible real kids would be this clueless to what kissing is.

It was not that they didn't know what a kiss was. They didn't know how to kiss well, that was the problem.

[–] HAL 9010 (907) 5 years ago

Yeah, I guess. Fair then.... though they had this one scene where one was guessing that kissing is on the mouth, like; ”see, I know my shit” (and clearly doesn't).

should of made this take place in the 90's if they wanted them that stupid

[–] Taeivon (197) 5 years ago

I was 12 in the 90s before the internet. All the kids my age knew what those things were and had seen porn in some form.

To me, it seemed more like a projection of what certain groups in modern American society are wanting from modern males. Asking consent before trying to kiss the girl you like, not knowing anything about sex, in fact, being grossed out by the site of sex in porn (yeah, right), etc.

Basically, getting rid of "toxic masculinity", and turning every young man into a pussy and future cuck, primed for mental, emotional, and financial manipulation.
