Not only young boys ... Shakespeare uses lavatory funny stuff, in "Comedy of Errors" for example ... and it can be found as far back as Chaucer:
From Geoffrey Chaucer's "The Canterbury Tales", The Miller's Tale, lines 698-707
And probably in earlier literatures ... and in the oral traditions of most cultures.
But many of the PC rules governing dress, food and recreation in schools are funny, if one finds "funny" in the ridiculous.
