I wonder if they will cover the issue of the world's GREATEST HYPOCRISY? The fact that more people
watch porn than have ever watched any single thing on TV or in movies... and then lie about it. How
politicians in many parts of the world (but clearly not in others) cater to the biggest hypocrites, and
therefore make themselves even bigger hypocrites.
If ever there was a reason to be damned for hypocrisy, I think this should be number one in that special
circle of Hell.

But, yes, if this was released in 1999, they are incredibly out of date by now. I wonder if I'll see any of my
old haunts in this, as part of my childhood included growing up in the porn industry capitol of the world --
Now all you need is a $50 camera, a computer, and any place that serves as background... i.e., a
McDonald's in Tokyo, a train with a couple of onlookers, a rave five miles out of Moscow, etc.

People are horny creatures. In the past, having free unlimited sex would've meant having many
unwanted children, most of which one couldn't have afforded to feed. Count the number of generations
that have had access to some form of reliable birth control, and then compare it to the number of
generations that didn't have it. I'm pretty sure my grandmother didn't have access to birth control
in her youth. All the thousands of generations before her had to rely on abstinence in order to
prevent problems, by which I don't necessarily mean children, but human suffering (famine, STDs). So
there's a strong history, and with reason, why sex has been condemned. The prevention of greater
human suffering is the reason why the church has preached against the "pleasures of flesh" in the
past hundreds of years. It's hard to shake that habit, and we have to forgive the church, the
politicians and people for committing this sin of hatred, fear and loathing of human sexuality.

There's another reason why we propagate the message of abstinence. I've noticed that it's possible
to grow bored of your sexual fetishes, so I see it's basically possible to grow bored of all of
them, which is a frightening idea. So that's why it's wise to not enjoy everything at once, and
leave something to discover for tomorrow. Besides, when pornography is forbidden, it's more fun to
break that restriction...

I'm not a religious person, but gods bless the internet.
