The flowchart didn’t originate with Prof. Brundage; it was done later. The appropriate passages in the book are on pages 91-92. I would suggest that “For my daughter?” isn’t necessarily a Christian sentiment, but, rather a paternal one.

In fact, the Brundage household was a fairly liberal one, and neither Greg nor Bridget were over-parented.

So you’re saying there’s an implied “For my daughter?” block right after “FEELING RANDY?” on the flowchart?

I went to school with two of Profesor Brundage’s kids, his son Greg and his daughter Bridget, so I was also a frequent visitor to the Brundage home. This was while he was head of the history department at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Given the publishing dates, he must have been preparing this book during those years. It certainly explains the looks he gave guys who paid too much attention to Bridget, who was a knockout par excellence for whom the fires of hell were not sufficient deterrent to lust.
