If you have a strong stomach, read this horrific report about two women in Iran who were convicted of adultery and sentenced to death by stoning. This is entirely in keeping with the point I made in my article at AT that totalitarian states view sex, not as a private
Continue readingA couple of weeks ago, I did a very short post bringing to your attention some peculiarities of sexuality when it comes to the far Left. Thinking about that — and thinking about the wonderful comments you all left — led me to create a much longer post about Sex

Continue readingThis is an entirely hypothetical scenario, because my daughter is only 12, and I’m not planning on her dating for at least another fifteen or twenty years, if not more. However, the sad fact is that, contrary to my entirely reasonable wishes, the dating scene is going to start in
Continue readingMy views on abortion have changed mightily over the years. The selfish, immature side of me still longs for a pro-choice label, but the mature, moral side of me has concluded that, subject to a few exceptions, pro-Life is the way to go. I won’t expand on that right now,

First off, let me clear the air here and explain that I haven’t developed some pathetic “middle-aged woman/teenage boy” obsession with him (although he does bear an uncanny resemblance, girlish hair and all, to the teen idols
Continue readingOne of the saddest aspects of 21st Century male-female relationships is the “hooking up” culture — a concept that takes the love and affection and commitment out of male-female relationships, and just turns them into insta-sex moments.
