正文部分

我没这么想过，那一定包括性行为.我希望我们的父母没那么做。
Rachel: I know, I mean, why can't parents just stay parents? Why do they have to become people? Why do they have... Why can't you stop staring at my breasts?
我懂，为何父母就不能是父母？为何他们就得成为人间男女？别再盯着我的胸部看？
Chandler: What? What?
什么？什么？
Rachel: Did you not get a good enough look the other day?
那一天你还看得不够吗？
Ross: Alright, alright. We're all adults here, there's only one way to resolve this. Since you saw her boobies, I think, uh, you're gonna have to show her your peepee.

我不知道，或许你想让婚姻失败。
