Pornography, it seems, is poisoning our precious bodily fluids. I was especially taken with the quote from Ms. Layden who said that porn is the “most concerning thing to psychological health that I know of existing today.” COUGH alcohol COUGH

Via a lot of people ending in cordiloquy

Punchline:

“Judith Reisman of the California Protective Parents Association suggested that more study of “erototoxins” could show how pornography is not speech-protected under the First Amendment.”

Everything these whack jobs hate is either a drug or a terrorism, or both.

Whenever you see someone who insists on being called "Dr." in every quote, even in her domain name (http://www.drjudithreisman.com/), you just know it's bogus. Surprise surprise, according to Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judith_A._Reisman), she's got a Ph.D. in Communications.

And on her website she quotes the support of "Dr. Laura" Schlessinger (doctor of physiology). It's like a perfect circle of dumb.

I have to say though, I don't think 24/7 broadband pornography, especially the corporate kind, is totally harmless. I don't think that lumps me in with the gay-haters or the prudes or the pseudo-scientists.
