I didn't have anywhere near enough sex because the priests at my school brainwashed me into thinking that even the fleeting thought of a girl's nipples would consign me to an eternity in hell. Racism directed towards the Indian and Pakistani communities in Bolton, where I went to school, was de rigeur, never questioned nor challenged, even by those priests. At primary school we were taught to be bigoted against the "proddydog" kids at the school down the road. Gay people were pooftahs, queers, lezzies and freddies. We smoked untipped fags and got pissed underage*. I've had to fight my way out of all that so I don't want to be the young me again. Try to enjoy what I am now and carpe diem is what I tell meself.

*Though I've never used an illegal substance in my life (apart from that underage booze). I'm not all bad then...
