That depends on the type of porn, and on the locality you are in. Try viewing porn depicting orgies with Muhammed's wives in Saudi Arabia, and you'll find out exactly how illegal it can be to look at porn... we're talking death penalty illegal here!
Dude, you've obviously never read The Virtue of Selfishness. For the record, I was a registered Libertarian for 30 years, until I changed to Democrat in 2008 so I could vote for Barack Obama and Steve Novick in the primary.
Never underestimate the lengths to which an immature male will go in order to get off. They used to steal Penthouses from convenience stores; I think they can figure out how to type in an IP address.
There are 3 main costs associated with sex: 1) The probability of pregnancy, 2) The probability of contracting an STD, and 3) The emotional harm caused by later rejection. Those costs have not changed significantly. As far as "illegitimate" children, some matriarchcal socities have been structured so that it doesn't really matter who the father of a child is; illegitimacy only matters in patriarchal societys (some have argued that this is an advantage of patriarchal societies; you can still have a line of succession even if the males are infertile. A 9 month pregnancy is hard to fake, but whenever a Queen gets pregnant, it is always assumed the Kimg is the actual father.)
Valid point, this would fail with name based virtual hosting, but not IP based virtual hosting. I'm sure a lot of porn sites are using virtual hosting, but how many porn sites are actually using name based virtual hosting?
Stop freaking make sex so taboo. Right on! Anything that happens between a priest and an altar boy in the privacy of their own confessional should be their own business, and nobody else's!
Stop teaching women to be so emotionally tied to their vaginas I'm not sure this is learned behavior... many have suggested that women are inherently wired that way.
Stop treating the penis as though its the key to a mans life, it can be replaced with a... turkey baster to transfering sperm. When that turkey baster can actually produce sperm, I concede that you are on to something here. In the meantime, I prefer not to think of penises or vaginas in isolation, but rather as part of a larger system. For some reason, my wife prefers that larger system to a vibrator... go figure.
a $15 battery powered chunk of silicon that is more effective for every purpose except urination. Only if you have a really tiny penis. Do you prefer a fleshlight to a real woman?
Perhaps the Puritans (and pedophile priests) are on to something here... maybe sex really is a lot more fun if you feel guilty about it, and have to keep it a secret! There is something very attractive about taboo behavior, particularly to adolescents.
The company has argued that the.xxx internet domain should be approved for porn site use, allowing parents and businesses to easily configure browsers or filters to automatically block sites that carry the domain. Right... 'cause children and employees obviously aren't capable of typing in an IP address that doesn't need to do a DNS lookup!
True Libertarians believe that people should be held accountable for the downstream effects of all of their actions, but that it should be a civil matter, not a criminal one. When a company kills someone, the deceased persons relatives should have the right to sue for unlimited damages. Ideally, reasonable safety precautions become a less expensive manner of doing business than constantly paying off damages claims. I argued with my Economics professor that the corporate shield from personal liability was a bad thing; he insisted nobody would be willing to invest in a business if that shield did not exist. But liability only acts as a deterrent to those people that actually have something to lose.
Liberals are just a bunch of hypocritical twits. Just like Conservatives. Which is why Libertarians rule! Sure, they are selfish, mean-spirited little gnomes, but at least they are honest about it.
Plus USB connector typically should have convex logo on it meaning "up", and sockets should be in an orientation that makes sense for "up" My tower computers sit on the floor, with the USB ports 1" from the carpet. Since they are towers, the motherboards are vertical, not horizontal. So, at least in this case, I don't think "up" means what you think it means.
Because 1) It emits light, and 2) it flashes! Er, wait a minute... how about because it was the device of choice for use by nocturnal flashers, unlike torches, lanterns, and candles which had the unfortunate side effect of causing serious burns to precisely that area of the anatomy that the flasher most wanted to illuminate?

The American Cinco de Mayo occurs on July 4, while the Irish Cinco de Mayo doesn't happen until March 17.

What part of "I prefer not to think of penises or vaginas in isolation, but rather as part of a larger system" did you not catch?

Real women can't talk either as long as they have something in their mouth... trust me, it makes them MUCH more pleasant to be around!

that Guacamole would be announced on Cinco de Mayo?

What exactly does plastic, dried feces, and urine smell like when you burn it? Could this heat be used for cooking?
Dignity will Prevail, you can Depend on it!
I'd say this is a really shitty idea, but that would be a dup!

Will the excuse "it was an email sent by a woman 'who happens to be a former court administrator' still work?

Did you try making comments like "Ooh yeah, that feels good! Shove it in harder!"?

the "g" in gnu is enunciated.
Really?!?
What are the odds that the use of tracking RFID will expand over time on that campus?
What are the odds that the proponents of this use of RFID will develop an obsession with looking for Kyle?
I've seen better porn than that in the pages of National Geographic!

Cue the "really shitty idea" jokes in 3... 2... 1.
