Porn

For what purpose is this material? Because we can? What does it say about a culture that objectifies half its population? What can this do for relationships and the ability to risk relationships? Aren't there enough real people with whom one can have sex? Isn't masturbation really a precursor to the real deal? Who among porn followers would have their daughter, niece, or mother be the object of pornography? Visual stimulation is one thing, visual/internet/phone sex with an unknown fantasy seems to isolate the user from real life. What, why, when and with whom?

The first amendment covers free speech. So porn is covered, usually. But at what cost to the user?

What's Up With Warren

Warren Adler seems to have fallen asleep for 20 years or is seriously depressed. I forgive him for either, but he should not post ideas and thoughts that zero in on his deficits. The Sarah Palin rescue post is riddled with what appears to be self-pity in the form of projection. Warren, keep writing books. Forget the blogs until this problem passes.
