I’m not the first person to use the following retort to your arguments, but you’re not the first person to trot the porn-oppresses-women pony ’round the track, either. What about gay porn, pictures of delighted boys drilling away at each other’s derrieres–does it oppress women? And porn produced by women, featuring women, for women–does lesbian porn oppress women in general, or just lesbians? And what about straight women who want to do porn or look at porn–are they oppressing themselves? Please.
Your abs crunch as you lean forward to begin writing a profanity-laced letter in which you accuse me of writing my own letters–a rather contradictory gesture on your part. But you’re angry, you’re not thinking clearly–Zima has that effect on you. Your triceps clench as, with passionate indignation, you grind pen into paper. Since it’s my fantasy, I am your Speedo, that thin layer of bright orange Lycra pressed between your twin globes of ass meat and the sticky vinyl of your kitchen chair.
