I didn't find a transcript of Stern's show, just a summary of what stern said. I have seen/heard Stern and his stuff gets rather graphic.

I just don't think that Oprah's show appeals to the prurient interest whereas Stern's does.

I heard the Oprah clip and it was not as clinical as the transcript suggests. In fact, the audience was filled with ooos and ahhhhs during the explanation in a nervous, embarrased, aroused sort of way.
I am sure it was nervousness and embarrasment, but I doubt it was arousal. And I doubt Oprah's purpose was to sexually arouse anyone.

I don't think she was trying to sexually arouse her audience with tales of teenage sexuality. I think it was an attempt to educate parents about what is going on with their kids. I am sure her audience consistes primarily of suburban moms.
