It shows a lack of growth for the person and is definitely a turn-off for this old man (turning 52 next month and proud to say it).

I couldn't agree more.
I would never refer to myself as a you-know-what but I guess I'll have to live with the fact that my relatives are going to have to bury me while trying to keep a straight face as the Taoist priest repeatedly intones prayers about my "innocence and utter lack of worldly knowledge" - even my nephews and nieces (the older ones anyway) know that this particular uncle has an especially long and truly catholic variety of sins.
