Porn star to address Oxford Union
Yahoo! News | Reuters ^ | 2/28/05

LONDON (Reuters) - In its 183-year history, the august Oxford Union debating society has heard the wisdom of Winston Churchill, Ronald Reagan (news - web sites) and Mother Teresa.

But until now, its members have yet to hear from anyone with quite the same resume as Ron Jeremy, star of 1,700 adult films, including "Bang Along With Ron".

"As far as I know it is the first porn star to address the Oxford Union. I'm 99 percent sure of that," Peter Cardwell, spokesman for one of the English-speaking world's most respected debating societies, told Reuters.

Jeremy, who claims to have slept with more than 4,000 women, will address the union on Wednesday, joining many British prime ministers, three U.S. presidents and political figures from the Dalai Lama to Malcolm X in its archival guest list.

"Ron is the biggest and apparently the best in the business, so I'm sure he'll have some fascinating stories to tell," said Oxford Union librarian Vladimir Bermant, who organised the event.

Debating society, eh? Will Ron impress them with his mastery of the subject matter?

1700 films? I've never heard of him. What is he, another Ward Churchill story teller?

Apparently Vladimir knows Jeremy "is the biggest...in the business" and must be waiting, breathlessly, to hear some of those "fascinating studies". Is Vladimir a fan?

What purpose is really served here for these Oxford "scholars" to hear Jeremy? On the other hand, what could Jeremy possible have to say that would be erudite, edifying and educational?

recall when clinton's sophomoric romps occured in the noblest room in civil government anywhere in the world? The brit's ran a headline that read, "America Makes Peace With Adultery."

Now Britain Makes Peace With Pornography.

Just wait untill they find out that Ron Jeremy is a FReeper

They'll rescind the invitation and chase him off campus with pitchforks and torches.

I thought I read that he had changed his ways and became a born-again Christian, living in Park City, Ut. Or am I thinking of someone else?
