Utah Tops The Wanking League


I'm still trying to decide the reason for Utah being tops in consuming porn. It couldn't be as simple as porn (and hypocrisy) being directly proportional to how much Jesus you got, surely not?

Perhaps it may be a shortage of young shagable females, they all being married off to church elders on reaching puberty; or thereabouts.

Anyway, it's quite academic really, because this little snippet of information is incidental, it being the result of a link from the main article, entitled, 10 Kinkiest Cities In America.

Nevertheless, when an article starts off with:

America's sexual pastimes have long been at odds with our puritanical roots. One such example of sexual contradiction is conservative Utah, which was found to be the largest consumer of online pornography a few years ago.

A fellow has no choice really other than to click the link.

A little taster from said article, and then on to kinky cities.

....However, there are some trends to be seen in the data. Those states that do consume the most porn tend to be more conservative and religious than states with lower levels of consumption, the study finds.

"Some of the people who are most outraged turn out to be consumers of the very things they claimed to be outraged by," Edelman says.....

....The biggest consumer, Utah, averaged 5.47 adult content subscriptions per 1000 home broadband users; Montana bought the least with 1.92 per 1000. "The differences here are not so stark," Edelman says. More New Scientist.



10 Kinkiest Cities In America
Wish Lonely Planet would stop being such a prude and release a guide to where you can let your inner freak flag fly?

America's sexual pastimes have long been at odds with our puritanical roots. One such example of sexual contradiction is conservative Utah, which was found to be the largest consumer of online pornography a few years ago. Despite America's sometimes shameful misgivings around sex, we can't seem to keep it in our pants. Wish Lonely Planet would stop being such a prude and release a guide to where you can let your inner freak flag fly? Well, look no further. Some cities cater to their constituents' wanton needs with festivals, clubs, or plain ol' randy reputation. Other cities get their sexy on more discreetly, thanks to the phenomenon known as the Internet. Whatever your preferred desire, the following places, in no particular order, can definitely show you a good time.




1. Roselawn, Indiana

Not only does Roselawn maintain a thriving (and family friendly!) nudist resort, the Ponderosa Sun Club also hosts a yearly pageant called “Nudes-A-Poppin,” MC’d by none other than famed porn star Ron Jeremy. It’s not just the strippers and porn stars shaking their money makers on stages and poles that draw thousands to this celebration every year; erotic dancing, public sex, and of course, exhibitionism abound. Located about 50 miles south of Chicago, on 88 acres of rural woodlands, Ponderosa also offers several G-rated recreational activities you never knew would be more awesome naked, like horseshoes, volleyball and chili cook-offs.




2. New Orleans, Louisiana

N’awlins, aka the Big Easy, has long had a reputation for debauchery. Of course, Mardi Gras, the infamous pre-Lent bacchanalian carnival has something to do with that, but New Orleans’ dirty dealings far exceed the typical Girls Gone Wild fare. Over an extended Labor Day weekend (starting the Wednesday prior), New Orleans hosts Southern Decadence, colloquially known as Gay Mardi Gras, but open to all orientations. This festival draws crowds upward of 300,000 from all over the U.S., with non-stop parties, “Big Dick” contests, and, well, sausage fests of the non-andouille variety. The South will rise again, indeed. Eight more.

There is no accounting for tastes but why do some people admire/hate Tom Cruise? You can't take him seriously. The man is a total fake, thinking he is God's gift to mankind, as dull as ditchwater and even more non committal than Clarence Mitchell f.e., not to mention the hysterical look in his eyes. Yes I know, people are strange.

"One natural hypothesis is something like repression: if you're told you can't have this, then you want it more," Edelman says.

A nucleus of truth perhaps.
I think repression can kill your dreams, creativeness, phantasy, etc. Porn is just a substitute but can never replace love and free thought in my opinion. M

The man is batshit; period.

He's a plastic product of a plastic society, but...

But he is also a product of a batshit society, a society of religious nutters.

The same society that not only condones religious nutters but actively endorses them.

Think about it for a minute, although I don't think you will need that long.

A science fiction writer starts a movement (cult) that talks about intergalactic war lords, volcanoes, thetans, H bombs and all the other batshit crazy stuff, and what happens?

The IRS (the government) gives this batshit the status of a religion, and as such, tax free status to boot.

So it's not hard to understand batshits like Tom Cruise, if batshit is good enough for the United States Government, it's certainly good enough for Tom, I'm so fucking batshit you wouldn't believe it, Cruise.

Where else but America would you find the atmosphere where openly talking about such (religious) batshit, and on the world stage I add, is totally acceptable and totally normal?

And it's not just Scientology is it, it's ALL religions?

If the batshit that people of all stripes come out with, if it didn't carry the religious tag they would find themselves committed for an indefinite stay, to a big house in the country.

By the by, I have no email, so if I don't respond it's because I am unaware of comments.

PS BT Yahoo email service sucks, it always has done.

Nothing can replace love, to be in love is to be truly alive, there's no other emotion that comes anywhere near.

Thanks for that.

Although I have blogged about Warren Jeffs in the past, I had quite forgotten the fellow.
