[Mr. K]

you know what? I was doing the same things back in '77

I was raised at the tail end of the 'sexual revolution' where people who should have known better were teaching that 'if it feels good, do it'

I grew out of it. You would think you would not have to learn on your own that 'virtue is it's own reward' but it is amazing when you finally do.

Judging by many of the posts in this thread, not many freepers saw Pumping Iron.
It shows quite plainly an ambitious and shrewd young man playing it to the hilt in a "sport" that is extremely competitive, not just physically, but mentally. The glamour and adulation that comes with being a world champion bodybuilder obviously has its "perks".
If Arnold claimed to be some sort of angel through that I'd have good reason to doubt him.
I'll also add that was an interview that was by design juicy and racey, because that's what people wanted to read, and he gave them the show they wanted.
This is all much ado about nothing. Everyone knows Arnold has a racey past, and most people either find it titillating, or don't care. I find it ridiculous that anyone be judged because they partied some 25+ years ago and used crude language in a magazine full of crude language.
