There was a LONG line of Republicans in the GAAY Male section showing their support.

*** means s.e.x in my previous post.

I''ve always said the Bible and pretty much all the other "holy books" were written by people who were at the margins of society. People who didn''t want to participate in the pagan festivities of their own community and would look at them with disdain, envy and jealousy.
So they came up with a way to make people feel guilty. Sodom and Gomorrah had to be destroyed, they were simply having too much fun.
Jesus said that if you have you lustful thoughts about a woman you are sinning.
In Hindu and Islam submission is demanded of women.
And to what end? Why are these people so riled up by someone expressing their sexual appeal?
There are four ways you can interact with a human: 1) Just saying "Hi", 2) Family and friends, 3) Business, 4) ***.
And *** is half of who we are, the other half made up by our brains. I don''t understand how getting indignant about the expression of *** can be a "moral" thing.

The blue noses here who have such strong objections to the CBS program and the porn industry should keep in mind that the violence and violations depicted in mainstream TV and the movies is not a characteristic of the porn industry.

The exploitation of women hogwash is just that - hogwash. It is always amazing that the idea of the exploitation of young men is never brought up as if only women are subject to exploitation. Stupid.

The men and women in the porn business know exactly what they are doing, or they soon learn. They aren''t hurting anyone or getting hurt. They have the option of declining to do any given scene while filming or opting out of the business entirely at any time.

I would rather watch a good porn lick than Bawbwa Walters or the the chief moron Larry king any time.

Re: "Porn is not a subject for comedy."

I must disagree. To the contrary, it is a rich and diverse source of humor, in my opinion.

I was just going to add that I was curious as to what the award looks like!

Porn is not a subject for comedy. The exploitation of women is appalling. As a mother (of both daughters and sons) and as a teacher, I was disgusted by your light-hearted approach to this. You ought to be ashamed for including such a piece of garbage in what is otherwise an exemplary program. You owe your viewers an apology!

What I find unbelieveable is how many Bible Thumpers know all the names of the porn stars!

Read these threads and you will see constant references to "jenna" etc...

I think many of these people have a little "Jimmy Swaggart factor" they need to deal with.

Perhaps viewing porn would be a good outlet for their religious fundamentalist repression.

GET OVER IT!!! THIS IS COMEDY!!!

Great story CBS!!

[gce65]

Maybe he should have explored a new demographic in porn: christian porn stars! Maybe that would have appealed to more Americans. ha!

While I was not crazy about the topic of today''s story, my main complaint is that I found it to be sexist. While Mr. Geist is ogling the many, many women interviewed (in addition, not very professional), the story didn''t cover any male actors. Maybe it was the editing, but in the end, still sexist.

Glamorizing and condoning porn? I really thought more of Sunday Morning until now. I am so disappointed. I wonder what all the young girls who were watching thought. I%u2019m guessing they want to be a porn star when they grow up...because it seems so neat! If the objectification and degradation of women was the message you wanted to get across, then you did it. Nice job Sunday Morning.
