My girl doesn't talk about law all day, or on the many occasions that we watch videos of monkeys fucking frogs.

What? You mean there is a whole
genre of primate-amphibian pornography? Goodness. I had no idea.
Hmm, Bane...I think I must just be a little different than your lawyer friend, since if I were frequently watching videos about primate-frog fellatio and *especially* if I were a law student I most definitely would be trying to discuss with you the ethics and legal definitions of what we were observing.
For example, I might say, "Hey, Bane, do you think this primate is a moral agent? Is this actually 'sex' based on legal definitions, or is Bill Clinton right that oral sex is not actually sex sex? Is the chimp guilty of 'rape' or 'sexual assault' of the frog? My recollection is that among humans, forcing someone to perform oral-genital contact would be classified legally as sexual assault."
So you...you don't discuss
any of that together during your movie marathons?
Well, MB shows me again and again that people have very different viewpoints on things, so our different reactions to your video and to Tore's and my toad talk are probably to be expected. For example, I felt Tore and I were quite skillfully interacting with each other to entertain, amuse, and inform...and definitely were not in competition. He always posts much better pictures than I do.
Oh,
kayleigh! I almost forgot to answer your question: do not fear for yourself (or for the chimp)--toads do not spread warts:
Toads and Warts.
However, human oral sex can spread numerous diseases, including HIV, so protection (oral dam/condom) is recommended. The chimp in this video was *not* practicing safe sex. If it *was* sex.
