I'll see your Dieterchen, and raise you another Dieterchen. ;-)
Oh, I totally agree that there's a big difference between fantasising about something and actually doing it. The problem I have is that it's taboo to actually fantasise about it--i.e., if you write about a 13-year-old girl just wanting to have sex without actually having it, you'll be villified for doing so. Whereas literature is full of 13-year-old boys fantasising about sex. That's what I mean by a double-standard--this assumption that unlike young boys, young girls don't think about sex. Which you and I both know is wholly untrue!
