Justme, being, as I am, as old as the hills -- and as common as dirt, too, I suppose :-) -- I can remember well the forerunners of today's "adult movie (porn) theaters. In the days when pornography was an ugly word (it still is, of course, but not in mainstream America anymore, sad to say), the peddlers of smut in those days attempted to conceal their real merchandise, which was nothing less than pornography, by adopting the name of "art films" to describe what they were showing in places they called "art theaters." Now the term "adult films" and "adult theaters" is in the vogue, but porno by any other name is porno. I like the story about a group of businessmen who were gathered at a convention. One of the members of the group said that, since there were no women present, he'd like to tell an "adult" joke. The leader of the meeting, a Christian man, said, "No, there are no women present at this meeting, but there are gentlemen present. Please don't tell your joke." ..... Just as the word "gay" has been adulterated to mean "homosexual," so has the word "adult" been adulterated to mean "pornographic." And "adult" section of a bookstore does not mean material that is suitable for adults in the sense of being above the comprehension of children and thus unsuitable for them. It simply means "smut, porno, filth." And when the panderers of porn say "suitable for adults only," they lie. The exploitation and perversion of God's sacred gift of sexuality is suitable for no one. --Hank | ||||||
