The Huffington Post-Nasal Drip
Saturday, October 11th, 2008
In reading Teresa Darklady Reed’s didactic op/ed piece on PG Porn in the Huffington Post I’m reminded of the ancient Navajo truism:
He who laughs last…didn’t get the joke.
PG Porn isn’t for everyone, but anyone who watches it and doesn’t recognize that it’s a parody can’t reasonably be expected to offer a sociological analysis of value. Especially if the basis of your argument comes down to morality contest. Arguing morality against satire is like calling professional wresting a real sport, then enforcing mandatory steroid-testing.
