Comments on: SPOILER!!! http://johnrlong.com/2007/12/13/spoiler/ I just blather on and on about stuff that interests me, mostly politics and sex and sometimes movies and art.

Where would you slide your credit card, in any case?

Oh, wait….

It is possible that the corporate purchaser had an extension of Wal Mart’s “go green” initiative in mind when ordering the product in question. In other words, perhaps the panties were made of organic cotton and colored with natural dyes? If so, I might be much less offended. It seems to me the owner of such a pair would then be making two very sound choices: 1) to not go into debt and 2) to minimize her impact on the planet.

This seems like such a tired debate to me. The point of the prior generation of feminists was to give my generation (both women and men) the choice of having sex for money by force or by choice or not. No fair bitching when we decide we’ll make spending money on our backs. That’s not how I was brought up and it sure as hell won’t be how my kids will be brought up, but I’m not going to judge someone else for doing it. Or in this case, poking fun at the process.

BTW, where is the outcry from short, fat, old, bald dudes standing on their wallets, or Santa in this case?
