Watching the people in this nation go nuts on the Age of Consent Laws and the glorification of Cougars, a thought entered my mind:
Has The Human Race Finally Hit Its Planetary Carrying Capacity?
Think of it: Japan and Europe are losing population. So is Russia (although for different reasons). The United States and Canada have grown [...]

First, a link to the original posting in which I comment on why I believed women “seducers” were being treated differently than men “seducers.”
It’s actually quite old for a blog post – over three and a half years old. Since then, quite a few new adult women/teenaged boys stories have popped up all over the [...]

I was thinking recently over all the stories I had heard over the years why people chose Import brands (and if they were indeed imported, so much the better). And I counted nearly thirty different explanations, each one talking about a car they had five to twenty-five years ago that had something so wrong that [...]

Steroids
Probably the biggest thing that’s been talked about for the past few weeks is A-Rod’s admission of Steroids Use back in 2003. Never mind whether it was legal for the list to exist (I believe it wasn’t and was being used to blackmail some of the other stars into sticking by the Baseball Union), the [...]

My first posting on Norman Porter/J J Jameson was a collection of thoughts. My second posting on Norman Porter/J J Jameson refined those thought.
This posting acts as a full reconsideration. More a sequel than the second posting was (that was more episode 1 1/2).
This was brought about by a quotation from NORMAN PORTER, JR. VS. [...]

Saving Grace (must register to read)
About time someone said sense about celibacy. And not “How Hard It Is Not To F%ck In Today’s Society.”
Thing is, I remember when I was a practicing Fundamentalist Christian. I was celibate. Not necessarily by choice, but I wasn’t exactly hurting, either. I desired sex and connection, but I can’t [...]

Joyce Ballantyne Brand, Creator of the Coppertone Girl, Dies
Remember the old Coppertone ads? Not the recent ones, the ones with more buttocks?
Yes, those ads used to run. Well into the seventies and eighties, even up to the start of the new millennium.
Thing was, back when the painting was in advertisements and on the packages people [...]

Polygamy vs Moderation
Truth Bearer dot org — Polygamy as “Biblical”
So this is where “Freedom defined is freedom Denied” is leading us? As the corporatistas strive to divest themselves of any and all responsibilities towards keeping society running (removal of laws that require corporations to act responsibly), their individualist tools (too often liberals who wish for individual freedom [...]

Amerindians Again Take The Hit…
…For Yet Another Euro-American Grasp At Pseudo-Holiness
But then, what do you expect from a people pushed to the sidelines and made to profit off our vices and troubles?
I’m serious. I’d like to see some industries developed that allow a blue-collar working class to develop amongst the American Indians, or at least drive them to become [...]
