When it comes to pornography and prostitution, why do women patronize other women?
   
I thought the women's movement is mainly about women being able to make their own decisions for themselves. Yet, some self proclaimed feminists are quick to tell another woman that her own willful decision to work as a porn actress or a prostitute is really a sign of her immaturity and inability to realize that she is being exploited.

Some women may be exploited, but others just like the sex and the money. Why the generalizations? Is it so hard to accept that a woman can enjoy uncommitted sex with strangers? IMO it is just another way of saying that a woman who is promiscuous is something to be looked down upon.

Why is it not treated the same as the abortion issue? A woman makes a decision about her own body and it's nobody else's business.

I like the pic in your sig line. I have a Wilson-face volleyball, complete with "hair," riding atop my car's antenna.

As for the porn issue...don't get me started. Really...don't. I have to get to work.

Hmmm.  It looks like Pedro Picasso didn't get back to work stuffing those envelopes:

18. Wouldn't it stand to reason that women wouldn't go to counseling if they felt good?
   
Seriously, no snark. Your post is good as far as it goes, but you only speak for women who seek out counseling. People seek out counseling for drinking problems, credit problems, etc. Point being, it is entirely expected that the people you'd see in counseling are there because they don't "feel good about what they're doing." That is the nature of counseling. It really doesn't change anything re: the original question posted.

It's a very large bonfire, but really, without the now-mausoleumed Fat Che at it, it's pretty boring.

I guess I missed something.

How did Che get the ol' tombstone?

He fisted poorly.....

And I would have thought it was his felching technique that was in question.

It's actually been nearly two years now.

My fellow alum Skins had repeatedly sent Fat Che courteous messages, gentle warnings, stern reminders, that his conduct was out of line--and the more Skins warned Fat Che, the more Fat Che kept violating the rules.

So finally Fat Che was mausoleumed, and went over to Big Jerry's salon (DemocratWarrior).

Fat Che professes to loathe Skins's island, but it's obvious he'd rather be there, than in Big Jerry's salon.

I thought the same thing when Billy Jeff was raping women in the White House but I was wrong.
