I notice that the people who have the most "prurient interest" in other people's sex lives are konservatives. They are voyeurs, which is a form of perversion.

It should ban the Bible at any rate. Perhaps a trans person should have public reading of the prurient parts.

And the notion that women are essentially men's property.

When I was was growing up, in 'regular' school, there were always somn kids mentioning abuty the priests in the Catholic school right next door. On one level, I think some of us thought it was just school rivalry,But as we got older we realised it was likely true.

But more to your point, I think it has to do with Catholic priests having to be celibate. And so they go for those thet they think will not talk. Eventually this started happening with pastors in non-Catholic churches.

And they even redefine it. The First Amendment prohibits Congress from passing laws that inhibit free speech. It does not apply to private citizens or private entities.

It does not mean that trumpsters get to say whatever nasty things they like and no one gets to respond.

Don't you mean to keep the erection hidden from the kids?

The British, and to a lesser extent, Canadians, remember their history, as in Shakespeare's time ALL the women's parts were played by men.

talibangelical churches attract them, because they seem to be unable to do background checks...if you are fluent in their Xtianist lingo, they will fall for a fake story every time.

That's why you can pretty much count on those businesses with the fish symbol on their sign to be grifters or incompetent.

Good point:4) CCs have no standards other than tribalism. As long as you recite the proper shibboleths, they'll let you commit any crime you want w/o punishment.

Just getting to this, the big thing with Klinger was that it was semi explicit that he's not gay, though that might have been partly to get around censorship. The joke within the joke was that he keeps cross dressing long after it's clear his superiors aren't going to do anything about it. So, either he really enjoys it or he is at least willing to keep it up as a gesture of defiance for its own sake.
