salon.com — One day in the summer of 1971, my parents held hands, closed their eyes and jumped out of their conventional marriage into something strange and new. I was 9 years old at the time. We were halfway into the camping trip when the six of us kids realized our parents had mixed and matched: My father was in the tent with their mother.

Very close family friends of my parents did this. And it happened on camping trip, too! It must have been 1970 or so. Everyone just kind of rolled with it. It was, after all, Eugene, Oregon...Both couples are still together today. Happily married.

Just like Dr. Drew says, this type of stuff never works no matter how much you want it to. Just isn't natural

Thank you. I didn't say it shouldn't be on the air, I said it should be moved to cable or to a later time slot. I don't think adult material should be dangled in front of children, because of course they'll watch it. I don't have kids but I have nieces, and I would be very upset if I saw one of them watching a show like that.When I do have kids, I'll do the v-chip thing.
