I found a link over at Critical Mass about Shocking Sex Acts in Schools -- requires registration. I use bugmenot except for the WaPo and NYT, for whom I have actually sent in valid data because I read them often enough.

I don't have a good answer for what to do about the apparent sexualization of younger and younger people. I agree that five year olds should not be 69-ing in the kindergarten bathroom. I'm pretty solid on that.

I'm also solid on the fact that I want my Maypo porn. The fact that someone else's child could possibly be exposed to my porn is not a sufficient reason to keep me from having porn any more than the argument that someone else's child could possibly be accidentally run over by my car is a sufficient reason to keep me from owning cars. It is the responsiblity of the parents to monitor a child's media intake and to keep it within the bounds they deem suitable for the child's age/experience. This is fairly easy when the child is three. It's more difficult when the child is ten. It's nearly impossible by the time the child is fifteen, but by then I'd expect the child to have some judgment.

I'm not sure what to do on this front. It's something to think about, anyway.

For some reason I keep thinking of those Bratz (website annoying and slow to load, probably interactive bullshit, I gave up before it finished loading) dolls, here. They look kinda tarted up, if you ask me. They have blow-up-doll lips. Seriously. That's what they remind me of. Am I missing something, here? It says ages 6 and up... Barbie never pissed me off this much. Barbie is more wholesome-looking and far less sexual even though she has much bigger tits. Probably I'm getting old.

Here's the funniest piece I've read on menstruation for quite some time, an essay notable not only for the original humor, which is quite good, but also for the reaction to internet fame (added at the bottom of the post). It's kind of a two-fer in the world of enlightening things. Go read. I pulled this link from amanuensis1, whose smut I've been reading of late... for those following along, in her recs, Amanuensis had the link to the doily-related fiction mentioned previously. Featuring Percy, as it happened. The internet is a marvelous thing, for without that tenuous thread, I would never have had the chance to plow through (go there, do go there) her own delightful smut. Important note for newer readers: Pretty much anything I link to on the fiction front is smutty, slash/yaoi fanfic that's well-written on at least one count and kinky and smutty. I did mention the smut content, right? I'm not talking diseases of grapes, here. You've been warned.

According to this survey, better than sixty percent of Merkins are not able to name even one supreme court justice. So. Here are our current supreme court justices (we get a total of nine).

Sandra Day O'Connor
Clarence Thomas
William Rehnquist
Antonin Scalia
Ruth Bader Ginsburg
David Souter
Anthony Kennedy
Stephen Breyer
John Paul Stevens

Never let it be said that I don't perform a public service. In the unlikely event that any of my readers were in the 'unable to name even one' pile, now all ya'll are not. You have been raised up. You have been exaulted. Lift ev'ry voice and sing. (I gotta get that on .mp3...) Or something.

Another ringing endorsement for the warm, quiet and oh-so delectable blowjob. Period.

When I opened this LJ to anonymous commentary, that was so that I could hear from people who refuse to have LJ accounts. To prevent me from being confused about which of the eight bazillion anononymous non-LJ'd people on this planet you might be, please pick an alias and use it so that I can tell you from, for example, my mother, my cousin Sandra, and my friend Mitch. Sign your posts, please. Use your real name or not, but pick something and put it at the end of what you write each time so that we know it's you. I hate playing guess-the-prose. It makes me twitchy.
