I think the parent's point was that it might seem questionable to find penises and vaginas disgusting. There is a healthy reason to find feces and defecation disgusting - feces carry diseases and are a waste product. Sexuality is not. |

If we want to encourage more openly talking about sex, perhaps it's only fair that we also support people openly talking about what they find disgusting.
There is some healthy biological basis behind a disgust reaction to either, as genital contact carries diseases too, depending on how it's done and the history. In that regard, handling faeces is quite similar to close encounters with gentalia - either can be safer or unsafe depending how it's done, and both are a natural part of life which is healthy in moderation.
