Nup, no emailz. Just viagra ads and invitations to join Yahoo! groups. Perhaps because I’m not an admin?

Gots to check your spam filters, Percy. I bet you is getting emails really.

I had significant troubles with Denny’s site, mostly due to layout. And, I guess, blind insistence.

I don’t get emailz! I’ll have to regularly check manually. Lame.

But! I have now read those comments, and thanks to futiledemocracy, I hope you can embark on awesome sex adventures!

As for Denny, I’ve gone to your blog and added my thoughts. I’m quite positive you won’t like what I said.

Percy, can you tell me if you get an email about comments when they’re approved, as well as when they’re posted and held for approval?

p.s. you should approve your comments, guy. Or delete them, so I don’t come and approve them later when I get bored of waiting to see if you’ll approve them so I can see your reaction to them.

Yeah. So, I spend some time looking at the youngfolk in Sutekh, going WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU OH GOD, and it seems that there are a lot of people who are scared of sex, and (especially dudes) who believe it’s disrespectful to want to have sex with someone, mostly because at their schools, the people who WERE having sex were doing it in really disrespectful, horrible ways. I spend a lot of time explaining how really, ladies LOVE the cock. Or the vag. But that basically, if they were to indicate to a lady that they were sexually interested, it’s not necessarily a disrespectful or rude thing. Especially if that lady is your lady. (Not, like, YOUR lady, Percy, but, you know, one’s lady. One’s special friend. One’s girl friday. One’s better half).

I am also glad that we see the same thing about abstinence education. Oh man, hilariously, my sister thinks abstinence education is the worst thing in the whole world (other than nanny states where people aren’t allowed to drink coke or use the internet) and it’s cool, because it’s this position both of us have come to separately. Like, obviously, our dad was a relatively cool dad when it came to sex ed (told us about condoms and respecting ourselves and not putting out just because you want a boy to like you, which I think is important, but did this in a way where it was clear sex WAS okay if the other person was a good person – my father, in particular, had no problems with Tom and I sharing a bed in Millthorpe from the time we started going out, but my mum was all IT IS WEIRD and dad was all SHE IS AN ADULT ALSO HE IS DREAMY), but yes, my dad doesn’t really have stern viewpoints on abstinence education and when my sister and I go on rants about how it is evil and antifeminist he is mildly surprised and then pleased that we share opinions. But, yes, ideas about sex are really tightly linked to ideas about women and the place of women in our society.

I think women are rad, we should have more of them. yes.

Woah, sorry, I wasn’t actually referring to you in my post. I apologise if it came across that way You tend to put forward your points in a logical manner with actual arguments, also, you try to look at the other side with a little finesse.

Plus, consdiering what I know about your background, you’ve been on that other side pretty hard. Qualifications are a good thing!

See, if you’d used a time machine and visited 2004 Finn and explained stuff the way you do, i’d have sat down and thought about it rather than thrown up knee-jerk defenses. It’s just that some people really suck at arguing and these people not only fail to further the cause, they actively harm it by being douches.

But yes, i was just trying to muse as to why people might choose abstinence and unfortunately “not wanting to associate with some of the douches on the other side” seems like it would happen fairly often.
