False dichotomy; I oppose censorship. I actually don't care about pornography ,finding it tacky and boring.---However, erotica is a different matter entirely.Tigger likes erotica.
Which you won't get from 'The Wife' is our point...because she is 'The good little woman'.

Mmm, coming from an infamous madam,I think that qualifies as a self serving statement.It's also simplistic and judgmental. Just who does she think she is, Shere Hite? (and Betty Friedan has had her moments)
I have seen and heard of far too many women taking husbands and then two kids and six years later fleeces the decent man for all he is worth.... I am thinking that this whole concept of "The Wife is Good" and the "Prostitue is Bad" has been skewed by the abrahamic religions so that we now have this debate over Adult Pornography / (Or more correctly) Erotica. I DO draw the line at Child Pornography which I feel may be lurking in the back of peoples minds when they see the word Pornography and is definitely self serving and debasing
