I had to take a day before responding here - and ask a few of my colleagues what their reaction was to this original question. Every single person I asked came up with the same thought that I did...is the individual reading this type of magazine for erotic pleasure? And is this pleasure intensified by the proximity of a young teenager to him?

Who knows? But Psych 101, and Human Sexuality 402 - weren't that long ago that I would forget that this can be considered some form of exhibitionism.

I have no problem with my partner reading these publications, and have no problem with them in my home. Heck - I'll even look at them with him! But, if I was the mother of a 14 year old girl - and I was on that flight - there would be no question that I would have asked for someone to be reseated. No question.
