Afternoon Delight was...pretty funny in that way Middle of the road (read straight white and socially conservative) people love to dance and mime YMCA at baseball games and other all-American activities. People don't know what certain things mean. I hate the song, always did, but would laugh sometimes at who all thought it was so sweet and charming. Sex sells even when people don't know they're buying it.
