"It seems to me that to organize on the basis of feeding people or righting social injustice and all that is very valuable. But to rally people around the idea of modernism, modernity, or something is simply silly. I mean, I don't know what kind of a cause that is, to be up to date. I think it ultimately leads to fashion and snobbery and I'm against it."

Good Grief, Which Is It, Either Porn Is As Pure And Wholesome As Apple Sauce Or What It Is Is Wrong, You Can't Have It Both Ways
One of the big, brave, free-speechy guys who is so outraged at my offense against the great and noble force of porn and the cause of the pornographers is outraged at my hardly outrageous or nearly explicit description of what prostitutes are expected to do in the course of their, um, work day. Well, if porn and prostitution are so harmless and positive goods, what's wrong with giving a job description of what they consist of? Or does that only bother you when I put it in terms of YOUR ass and mouth and the rest of you?
Either you admit that you don't really believe that what you say is OK when it's done to prostitutes, in private or for view when it's turned into porn or you stop pretending to be one of Baby Blue's bluestockings when I put your own claims in your own fat face and your own sweet ass is proposed to be on the line. You're OK with other people's bodies and souls living on the line you wouldn't put a toe on.
