poliphilo I have a discriminating appreciation of erotica, you, I regret to say, have a dirty mind and he is a porn fiend.
We got into a discussionof/argument about pornography at the Meeting House yesterday. It was frustrating. We weren't engaging with one another; but rather- each of us- beating up on our own personal demons as projected onto the person opposite. And it struck me that most contentions- not just on this topic- are like this- from your shouting match in the street to all out warfare between nations. We don't hear one another or see one another but are in effect fighting with ourselves- on a battlefield defined by childhood trauma and psychological quirk.
