That’s what the moonbats at Grist want to know. After a long, long, long recitation of all the evils in Big Sex (you just know they’ll have to call it that soon), they come up with
Individuals selling sex to others is, of course, just a small part of the sex economy. Far from being underground or taboo, many aspects are legal, even glorified (think beautifully crafted lingerie). It’s a trillion-dollar cross-sector industry spanning live entertainment, pornography, pharmaceutical products, clothes, and accessories.
I’d suggest that it is probably a bit higher than a trillion dollars. Regardless, the must become green!
Feel like watching the latest Fair Trade-certified porn film? The actors all enjoy decent pay, health insurance, and pensions. The carbon impact of the set lighting and travel is offset through investment in clean, efficient cookstoves sold at affordable prices to women in rural Africa.
Derp! What else is there to say about so much monstrous stupidity in 3 sentences?
Perhaps you’d prefer a spot of ethical lap-dancing? You can be sure the performers are all willing and well-paid: It’s certified by Care and Consent, the highly reputable international certification body for ethical sex. You tip generously, knowing that 50 percent of the profits are promised to the local women’s community center.
Or, maybe best of all, you opt for an evening in with your sweetheart. You’ve got everything you need: condoms made from rubber tapped sustainably in Brazil, hand-carved FSC-certified sex toys, and delicious Fair Trade dark chocolate body paint.
Sheesh, it’d be just like liberals to take all the fun out of sex, and replace it with Social and Environmental Justice.
Crossed at Right Wing News and Stop The ACLU. sit back and Relax. we’ll dRive!
Teach it was not until 2008 that the Texas law prohibiting all sex toys was over turned. When it comes to sex the biggest laughs have ALWAYS come from the right side. Before 2008 Texas would put you in jail for selling “obscene devices”
conservatives want sex industry to go to jail
john,
I am about a conservative as it gets. In fact, I would defy anyone to out conservative me. Yet for all my conservative leanings, I have never understood our social laws and feel that they are all wrong. I have expoused on drugs in the past and the way the the “war on drugs” is one on the worst things we have come up with. Now we discuss prostitution. Again, I call upon experience in dealing with these people and would indicate that the laws are not working, will never work and that we need to leagalize the institution in order to make it safe and allow men to have rights that were taken away by liberals. That is right, the first sex laws originated out of liberal states. Legalization of the industry would allow taxes to be imposed, supervision of the workers to assure there health and safety and many other benefits. Yet this will not occur as liberals insist on imposing the government on us all.

And maybe we could outlaw the Chinese imports and encourage the vegetable growers to gene engineer bio-degradable or edible sex toys such as carrot & cucumber dildos, and radish Ben Wa balls (these might even have a natural sensitizing effect). And if we did have to include vibrators, we at least could drive them with body-movement generated electricity. It makes me emotional to think about it.
