Okay, so there's this school in Minnesota, where apparently the schoolchildren have created a game called 'rape tag.' I'm not sure if that's what they call it, but that's what the article calls it anyway.

Here's the article.
Now, there seems to be a lot of sensitivity about normal childhood sexual behavior, in the comments section and in the article itself. The children are playing a game where they hump each other for their own amusement and enjoyment - a fantasy, not built upon rape whatsoever.
Isn't it just normal explorative sex play, which is normal behaviour for children? I don't think it would be beneficial to repress sexual curiosity in children, curiosity which is ultimately harmless and quite beneficial.
Don't you think the teachers, the parents, and some in the comments section over-reacted to this?
If I was in the position to end this, I wouldn't. It seems completely harmless. When I was young, there were lots of games 'worse' than that.
What do you think?
