Hi Caledonia and all, You know I was thinking about the coment that sex is sacred. And I thought about my reply ( I reserve sacred for religion )..... Actually on second thought I thinks sex can be sacred. Definately not as sacred as religion; but very high on the list. At the same time I can understand that others don't feel the same way and I can respect that. I suppose it depends. Needs vs real honest love. Mechanics vs a joining. Cal- As you I'm sure are aware can live perfectly fine withought seeing porn. So you aren't missing much. BUT if you have to watch. For a class of something, to avoid being disgusted watch porn with the sound off at fast forward speed. The movie last shorter and is more fun in general. Actually this trick works with almost all movies. Jordy-Are you aware that Emannuelle has been turned into a cable movie? I saw it cinda once. I frankly was slightly bored and confused. It has also been turned into a comic as has the story of O. Haven't seen the Fanie Hill thing. BUT I have seen Barbarella! Not erotic or even sexual. It was silly!!! Now for your next reading assignment you have to read the entire GOR series by John Norman ( I think. ) Playboy is mostly erotica and informative interviews! Playgirl-Stupid posing. Very stupic posing. Hustler-Smut. O magazine ( That's the European O magazine. ) NOT OPRAH! Erotica, porn, humor, design, and expensive all at the same time. The magazine has Great paper though!!!! I have seen the Perils of Gwendoline. It silly, so silly, but interesting costumes! Bsteph
