Do you draw a line anywhere?

My point is that you aren't qualified to draw lines for anybody but yourself, so why are you doing it?

I've seen those sado-masochism scenes on TV and they're like Martians to me, boring Martians, and also they seem to waste a lot of time (time that could be better wasted on SI.)

If women are "saying," as you put it, that they like things they don't, that is horrible. I believe you are implying that they are "saying" it but that they don't really like those things. Also, some of those things are injurious.

We were talking about anal sex, however. I am telling you that I have known, personally, women who like it very much as an erotic act, and because they and their partners are knowledgeable, are not injured or hurt by it. I am also concerned that pressure is being put on women to engage in anal sex by such popular culture icons as Howard Stern, and that some of them will not only find it unpleasant and painful, but will be injured by it. Ignorance is not bliss.

This doesn't change the fact that some women, and homosexual men, engage pleasurably and safely in an act that you find disgusting.

So the issue is, what business it is of yours what they do? Any at all? Should they not be allowed in certain professions if they like anal sex, for example?

Do you "have a problem" with sex with contraception? Masturbation?
