that line stuck out to me as well. as with most vices there are those that think legitimizing the vice in some fashion will somehow make people who are fundamentally out of control suddenly find control.
"as with most vices there are those that think legitimizing the vice in some fashion will somehow make people who are fundtamentally out of control suddenly find control."
On the surface, I agree w/ you; and its sad. But, I'll add that finding control ... well, in effect, a lifetime behind bars is what many men find is quite controlling and suffiently addresses a need they have seen to it that needed to be met. It is no accident that almost all men behind bars grew up w/o a dad.
Most gay men, as well, grow up in a similar dad-deficit environment. AIDS is another kind of prison, and thus the control they seek is found.
So, the rationale is nutty as you rightly observe, unless you put yourself in their shoes ... for what they pursue is after all, control.
Feminism, gay nuttiness, porn epidemic; all are the mold that grows by default when guys fail to grow into men and be the fathers God has called them to be...
