Sexual Competence is a Mainstream Value

I think both are missing the real point. Well, OK, the tweak-the-fogies camp is not completely off base, but there is something the Natalie Krinsky who wrote this item of tweakery understands that they don't seem to. And that is this: today, sexual competence is a mainstream virtue -- part of the normal toolkit of adults, like table manners or choosing appropriate clothes.

Eric Raymond is absolutely correct in this. Like any other aspect of life if you do not have the skill and training you will not get as much from an activity as those who do. Obviously this is something to be decided by the individual but as far as Raymond's point it is completely accurate and in line with what we see every day.
