So true. There should be a companion law for discussions of racism.

Agreed...though I'm concerned that the impetus will be to protect *tourists* specifically rather than, you know, everyone...still, I have a feeling that tourism will stay down as long as the message people are getting is "yes, we have an enormous sexual assault problem, but don't worry, your door will have an…

Interesting and informative, though I never want to hear the phrase "blowhole penetration" again.

I know! So cheesy and kinda fakey, yet somehow still so earnest and happy!

Also, am I the only one who would probably have trouble inserting it properly with my stubby little baby fingers? To say nothing of women with long nails...

I've seen that article before, and I've always loved it. As dark and sad as it seems at first, there's so much hope and humanity in the stories of women who'd been told all their lives Planned Parenthood was a den of cruelty and sin, only to be faced with the opposite experience. The letter from the woman who said "I…

Honestly, as much as I dislike the anti-abortion movement and find them to be more concerned with controlling women's sexuality than with helping anyone, I do have mixed feelings on this. Shouldn't this sort of protest be allowed for the same reason that we allow Nazis to march?

On the other hand, the fact that we have…

Yeah, actually I think DangerTits is sadly right. When your mental image of what a woman's body should look like is Photoshopped to shit, ANY kind of line or bulge on the tummy, even the kind formed by six pack stomach muscles looks wrong.

You kidding? All the men I've met who are hypercritical of women's bodies are straight virgins.

It's not a Baltimore thing, Divine is awesome as fuck EVERYWHERE.

I have a related question for any pro-lifers who believe the father should be allowed to prevent an abortion against the mother's wishes: How would you feel if you learned that a father who did not wish to support a child forced the mother to have an abortion against her wishes?

If that scenario upsets you and seems a…

I agree wholeheartedly. I think any loving couple should have a talk about it, where the feelings and needs of both people are respected. And it's a sad and unfortunate situation if a father wants to keep the child but the mother chooses to abort it. But unfortunately, unintended pregnancy can lead to a lot of sad an…

I suppose that's true, but it doesn't seem like a reason to reinforce that perception, unless you agree with it.

It's still kind of silly to be like "Superheroes like Ghost Rider! Daredevil! Or the Watchmen!" given that Watchmen is a deconstruction of the genre. It's sort of like saying, "I like John-Wayne style cowboys, like Rooster Cogburn, Blondie from The Good, The Bad and the Ugly, and Django!"

Every time "Watchmen" is listed alongside Iron Man and Daredevil Alan Moore dies a little inside.

I strongly disagree. Certainly, some writers treat them like that, but what about Gail Simone or Devin Grayson, or Jill Thompson? Or even male writers like Darwyn Cooke? I like the New Frontier Wonder Woman, and whether or not she's your favorite, I don't think anyone would say she's about tits and ass.

Sure, there are…

If the government wanted to fight obesity they would cut down on the corn subsidies that ensure everything we eat and drink is filled with corn syrup, not engage in a useless shaming campaign.

That project sounds very interesting and worthwhile...is it a private thing, or will you be publishing somewhere?

Someone who would shoot another human being over $150 is definitely not sane, whatever his reasoning, and the consequences of that were tragic.

I'll agree that it's not the start of a new, terrible trend. It's a symptom of a very old, terrible trend.

I'm not certain how Nevada law responds to this (my understanding of it comes from wikipedia) but it seems to me an important legal precedent set in any place where legal prostitution exists is a clear, legal indication that a client does not ever have a right to demand service. (i.e., a prostitute has the right to…
