PG

So runner Dave and Leanne will be arriving within the next couple of hours, so the children are helping to ensure that the house is as messy as possible for their arrival. Paul will be getting home from work around the same time they arrive. And I convinced him to bring some Arby's home for dinner. I love my husband!!!!!!!!

So as well as finding that I am writing a blog for the scholarly, I also checked up on my blog's rating. Keeper of the Cheerios is now PG instead of G. The reason given was three instances of the word breast and one of the word sex. I will grant that the post in which these words were used is somewhat illicit and not appropriate for very small children. However, I really do not believe that sex or breast are bad words.

I could have been writing an article about how the doctor had easily determined the sex of our baby by doing so many ultrasounds. Or I could have been discussing sex as the Latin number six and the root of the word sextuplet. Speaking of sex, is that also the root of sexton?

Then again I could have been writing a recipe which called for breast of chicken or breast of turkey. Or I could have been discussing how I plan to breast feed the baby because breast milk is the absolute best nutrition for baby. Breast is not a dirty word! I wish our culture was more understanding of the fact that God designed breasts for the purpose of feeding babies (and perhaps with other mating purposes in mind).
