Pornography merely depicts pictures of nudity but not the real person; romance novels falsely portray reality in terms of what relationships and romance are like.<br /><br />Instead, there are virtues to combat this sin, to be practiced by both sexes, namely virtues such as vulnerability, letting others really get to know the real you, patience, self-control, chastity (that there is a time and a place for sexual union, that is, within the confines of a wholly committed marital relationship).clee67http://openid.aol.com/clee67noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5431055010587721658.post-36307547263915098532009-04-05T01:23:45.512-04:002009-04-05T01:23:45.512-04:00Amen, sister!Lindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14259069027092670619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5431055010587721658.post-4489592426718966942009-03-27T21:01:51.486-04:002009-03-27T21:01:51.486-04:00Amen.Boohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08354040829122139714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5431055010587721658.post-66506023818113241552009-03-04T22:30:24.159-05:002009-03-04T22:30:24.159-05:00I'm confused by the bit at the end about marriage and family therapists.. where does that play in to her story/your argument?Ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18056923986132878076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5431055010587721658.post-77186204331860109522009-03-03T11:03:43.394-05:002009-03-03T11:03:43.394-05:00IMO: Ur reading too much into this . . . she merely wanted to get enough $$$ to finish her schooling. Her older sister sold herself at Bunny Ranch to get the $$$ for school and now Natalie wants to do the same. Just so happens that the media picked this story up and she now has worldwide publicity. If only she would do something radical with the publicity like Jerry Rubin or John &amp; Yoko Ono.666isMONEYhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04278844324811261409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5431055010587721658.post-10242974379131235672009-01-20T16:23:29.879-05:002009-01-20T16:23:29.879-05:00I thought you conservative gals liked military men.Anthonyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12470479951332512262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5431055010587721658.post-45943100740641566282009-01-13T12:19:53.016-05:002009-01-13T12:19:53.016-05:00Hi!
