		<description>Hi Stil, thanks :)
I hope you don&#039;t mind, but I highlighted this post and posted the feed on Topix, in the sexuality section I recently became editor on, and the subject/topic is generating discussion.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;@Stephen Stockwell:&lt;/strong&gt; This is, of course, another hallucination of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://stilgherrian.com/category/hallucinating-goldfish/&quot;&gt;Hallucinating Goldfish&lt;/a&gt;: that society is actually structured as simply as the moralists seem to believe.

		<description>Thanks for the tip, Stil.

Sounds like this book will sit handsomely on my shelf next to Easton &amp; Liszt&#039;s &lt;i&gt;The Ethical Slut&lt;/i&gt;: another fine read that completely blows apart the utter myth that pornography and polyamorous sex have &lt;b&gt;no place&lt;/b&gt; in a mature, responsible and loving relationship... or, indeed, society as a whole.

When was the last time we had a clear month without some purse-lipped, reactionary dullard (yes, Tracee Hutchison, that includes you) insisting that anyone who enjoys pornography is automatically a signatory to misogyny and female degradation?

Such wooden imagination.

It&#039;s painfully obvious that vanilla ideologues like these cannot or will not fathom the heady thrill of exploring their own repressed dom/sub fantasies in a safe environment... if, indeed, they&#039;ve ever had any. Meanwhile, perfectly normal, respectful citizens -- including women, Tracee -- flock to Sexpo and adult shops &lt;b&gt;in their thousands&lt;/b&gt; to buy toys and fantasy smut which they then take home and privately enjoy, thank you very much. This heresy has been going on for decades; probably more. But we&#039;re &lt;b&gt;still waiting&lt;/b&gt; for civil society to fall apart at the seams. 

There are &lt;b&gt;far too many&lt;/b&gt; good men and women in this world, whose relationships are genuinely nourished and strengthened by a healthy dose of pornography, for that happiness to be denied and punished by the Porn Is Bad choristers.</description>
