I should point out that is that those who speak out against the moral wrongs in the US are American themselves. And those who speak out against the moral problems in the United Kingdom are Americans as well.
Case closed.

and while beer for breakfast is not my cup of coffee, it's not exactly a moral trauma. Most of Europe was mildly potted for the better part of the last 2000 years.

Something to be said for that.

There is indeed. :)
Watched a fascinating documentary on it showing what an average European drank (about a half gallon of ale a day) and how the arrival of coffee as an alternative for ale helped usher in the industrial revolution.
After all while plowing a field is something that you can do while in a rosy haze running a large powerful machine is not.

Furthermore, I believe many women who use sex (or rather the denial of it) in a relationship are surprised to find out that their husbands turn to porn. Some of the worst vitriol over Dr. Laura's "Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands" was over her contention that marrying a man then denying him sex was locking him into a contractual obligation and refusing to hold up the other end of that contract.
Only a narcissistic jackass thinks they can get away with "heads I win, tails you lose" in perpetuity

Al Gore's porn superhighway is going to do enormous damage to society. Apple's video iPod is the next step toward all porn, all the time.

I personally think that the government needs to get out of the business of playing parent and start punishing those who become parents and shirk their duties. The government has a role to play in protecting public morality, since parents can't be with children 24 hours per day. Of course, parents don't need this crap either.

Women have always consumed porn, only it was usually in the form of romance novels. I swear, if men knew what was going in the books so many of their wives read, they'd never let us complain about Playboy again.
(Yes, I do like romance novels, but the ones in the Bertrice Small vein are just ridiculous, so I stick to Regency, which is still ridiculous, but at least it's clean)

Me, I hope my kids never get exposed to that stuff. But in the final analysis, I'd rather catch my kid surfing porn than surfing Demoncratic Underground."LOL...

Indeed. "It Takes A Village", after all. We are our brothers' keeper. Hilary usually perverts the principle.
