"Taurus Hall's" post was perfectly reasonable.

intimidated to ask a question because of possible rude and unhelpful

I can tell from their other posts in this group and brief portfolios
featured on their business sites that those who are the most negative seem
to be the poorer.
I should also take this opportunity to thank those who have replied via
email. Apparently what a few here see as the fringe the vast majority in
this group view as the frontier.
Again, thanks for being a voice of reason Thomas it's appreciated.

I wouldn't build an adult site or anything x rated. But that's just me. To each
their own. And I'm not embarrased to admit I wouldn't build an adult site. :)
On the other hand I saw South Park the day it opened, so I'm not a total prude.
Jeanne
Neither would I.
I have done (heh heh) extensive research. Adults sites are notorious for
use of banner ads, popups and circular links. Most so-called "adult"
sites are often just banner farms. Often an "adult check" login is
required.
It's just not something that you'd want on a resume:
"Look, I created a site that violates every design rule in the book and
it's about hot teens". Yeah, right.

Well... tough a bit in the *lowish* side, it was by no means an insult for
the designer, as most messages of this type has been in the past. You
could've been a bit more forward; as due to many past experiences, *small
budget* meant *no budget at all*; that's why the general negative attitude
of the group.
"I have hired a very kind manfrom this group to build the site. Since there

What???? This was a request for a design for an adult site. Nothing wrong
with that. Nobody forced you into taking on the assignment.
Also, let me ask you a question... if you had to design a site for Seagrams,
would your response be :
"So you think its Okay to lead young impressionable minds into drinking that
filthy poison?"
Sex online is a legitimamte business aimed solely at their target market.
They are not forcing you to give your credit card info away. Its a different
business with a clearly defined audience. So who gives you the right to say
what they can and cannot do?
You said "Dog poop is still dog poop, no matter how much sugar you put on
it."
My response is "Who asked you to eat it?"
If nobody did, shut up.

Nobody has the right to destroy people and these "adult" sites destroy
people. They destroy marriages. They promote rape. They degrade women.
They encourage child molesting. They are for adults in body but
thumb-sucking spoiled brat infants in mind. So then what is my interest in
this? I teach women and children to protect themselves from these babies
who go to these sites and carry out wht these sites promote and encourage.
I have a vested intererest in stopping this dog poop from spreading. I
don't want to have to teach women and children to protect themselves from
these perverts who have a mental age of about a 1 year old.
> I teach women and children to protect themselves from these babies

Sorry, I don't believe a word of this. I always try to give people the
benefit of doubt but in this situation I simply don't believe you. You have
a vested ionterest but it has nothing to do with "teaching." Even police
officers are not as emotionally distrubed as you appear to be on this issue.
In fact, I think it odd that your first post to this site, from what I can
find, was a reply to my solicitation to find a design person for my adult
web site. I know how USENT (not newsgroups work) and you are an example of
why only 1 in 6 people (source znet.com) use Usenet.
So if you want to quote some verifiable sources we can go from there. But
for you to just rant on like a little baby who wants his bottle, sorry I
don't play that game.
And I apologized to the regulars in this group who had to be subjected to
this nonsense. I will leave your group in peace now.
Cheers! TH
I would rather not teach. I do not enjoy headaches after simulation. I do
not enjoy the bit tongue. I do not enjoy the kick to the groin that
penetrates 2 cups and about 6" of high compression padding. I do not enjoy
the possibility of a late kick to the head when I go down. I do not enjoy
fighting for funds to keep this going as NOBODY in the organization earns a
profit on this, though some are blessed with enough grants (campus and civil
police departments) to just cover expenses (they do not cover wages for
teaching). So far I am several THOUSAND dollars in the red and am going to
a conference that will end up costing about $2,000 to learn to "beat up
women." This is after 2 surgeries to the 2 primary targets since April 8.
www.stopassaultnow.org, check out the video.
In addition, I will still be a teacher without sexual assault. radKIDS also
teaches bike safety, fire safety, drug use prevention, home safety,
out-and-about safety, etc. These will never go away. Neither will sexual
assault as there will always be mental 1 year olds in 14, 20, 60, 80 year
old bodies. At least not until Christ returns. But that is another story.

Mayber YOUR marriage was destroyed. My wife and I are still newlyweds after
25 years of marriage. Both of us are survivors of child molesting.
However, when I WAS using porn that did contribute to us nearly divorsing.
Since giving it up we have grown closer. This is typical of the problems of
porn and why it was illegal in the US for about 150 years. Then the despots
on the Supreme Court changed the Constitution to protect victimizers, to the
point they have effectively legalized child pornography.

Just read the sexuality psychology journals. Read the marriage journals
also as pornography is second only to money as influences of divorce. Read
the biography of serial rapists/murderers, like Ted Bundy. Check out the
report from the Pornography Taskforce.

Check out www.stopassaultnow.org. Also check out www.rad-systems.com and
www.radkids.org. about 70% of the instructors are in law enforcement. My
wife and I are going to be going to San Diego this Friday for additional
training, on our OWN funds. About 25% are involved in victim's recovery
organizations. The remaining 5% are like me, independents who are concerned
about sexual assault. We have the exclusive endorsement of the Internation
Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administrators. In addition we have
been featured on The Sally Show, America's Most Wanted, and CNN. If we are
"emotionally disturbed" for hating abuse, then so be it! I wish more people
were likewise "emotionally disturbed!"

Next time I go to the library for my research in creating a program to
prevent child molesting from happening in churches, I will get this info for
you.
"Other charities, such as the Boy Scouts and Big Brothers, have instituted
very effective screening procedures, and as a result the pedophile or the
child molester is migrating to the last institution where he can be placed
in immediate contact with potential victims in an atmosphere of blind trust,
and that's the church."

So how can you be 100% positive the girls involved in your "bit of porn"
weren't slapped around immediately before the photo shoot, or after? Are you
certain none of them are minors? Really certain? Are the models doing what
they're doing willingly, or have they been drawn into something they loathe?
Porn is an exploitative industry. By supporting porn, you support that
exploitation. It's as simple as that.
it's just too easy to make such conclusions, you could also say that people
who look at smoking advertising just support drug addiction... People who go
online just promote the fact of Internet Addiction, don't eat rice and
products that may come from african countries, because you are causing their
deaths by the minute because it's promoting the oppressing government...
Don't just mix things, The issue is not with porn, porn has been there
longer than the United States in their actual state, in europe it was long
there, i think the issue is more with communication, and that has been lost
quite a lot in our world, people don't take enough time talking to kids
about what they might have seen on tv, and so on. If you don't tell a kid
that the guy who shoots another in a movie isn't reality, but you talk
things out, and manage not only with Huge symbols like PG ratings and so on,
things might change.
The porn and sex industry has been there, and problems have arised more
since the closed houses have disappeared, because people just do that
hiding, by making it a huge taboo and sin to enjoy sex, that's what leads to
more sexual assaults, and so on, you hide things, make people think that a
good wank is evil and son on, then they feel that they are not normal, they
leave that normality status... doesn't that lead to something ? of course if
you're not considered as normal, why act like others ? just go crazy, then
they will at least have a reason to think that you are...

Sex is natural. Porn is not. Sex between a husband and wife is normal and

degrades those involved.

True, but how many started out being pressured or coerced into having sex. m
How many were pressured by boyfriends who threatened to leave it they didn't
get sex? How many were pressured by girlfriends to "join the club?" How
many were conditioned to accept more and more groping? How many were
conditioned by schools that handed out condoms and told they have no
self-control? How many are like my wife who was conditioned to accepting
sexual assault because she was extensively molested by father, uncle, and
cousins, like 1 in 3 to 4 women in the US who are molested before reaching
age 18?
So what if they are well paid? Many are NOT well paid. Many are like Linda
Lovelace, they are slaves, to be bought and sold and used. They are no
longer human, but some object to be used, like a paper plate to be used and
thrown away after use.

That is YOUR bigoted opinion. You need to reread my posts. I NEVER made
any blanket statement against sex. YOU imposed them on me by your
prejudice. You are the one with misleading words (also called lies),
claiming I stand for something I do not. That only proves that you know you
are wrong and have nothing to depend on except false accusation.
BTW, the most erotic literature ever written is in the Bible, between
husband and wife.

You just proved you know you are in the wrong. You have to resort to what
amounts to slander. I have given my real name. RAD is a well-respected
organization, recognized by hundreds of police forces across the US and
Canada. I see you "accidentally" snipped the fact that I stated that about
70% of those involved in RAD, over 3,000 certified instructors (BTW, the
founder and the governing board are almost all practicing police
instructors), are in law enforcement, in both campus and city, county or
state police forces. Snipping without saying you are snipping is also a
no-no. It shows a complete lack of integrity. Students get an "F" if
caught doing that. Researchers get fired for deliberate misquotes.

When did I say that? I saw someone else say that they are slapped around
and indeed many are. Linda Lovelace testified to that fact and I have heard
from others who escaped the industry that can attest to that fact. If you
want to ignore that fact, so be it. MY point was and is that all
pornography is destructive to those involved, to those who make money off of
it, those who use it, those who do the photography, those who are
photographed, and those who distribute it. Those who are photographed, the
people whom I have focused this discussion on, are abused because they had
to debase themselves to take their cloths off for a camera. ALL women are
debased by pornography because those who view it view women as someTHING to
be used and tossed asside. They are not viewed as humans.

That never accomplishes anything. Thsoe who already care do not need to be
exposed to the truth. They already know it. Those who don't care are part
of the problem. YOU are part of the sexual assault problem because you wish
to promote the degradation of women, whether by men or by other women. Just
what is the objective of the dog poop you will be putting on the web site?
Relationships? Education? Or just getting off on some naked body?
I probably will not be able to reply until after August 5 as tomorrow I will
be preparing for a 2 week trip to San Diego to join others who wish to learn
how to better help women and children protect themselves from your
customers.

I hope they learn how to protect themselves from nut boys like you.
I don't believe I've seen you post one single message requesting review of
flyers or other work you use to communicate your messages, Nor do I see you
posting messages that show an interestin an honest give and take that might
help you improve your communications ability. A search of Google confirms
this. In fact I can find only a single message in which you commented on
anything remotely related to graphics. Rather, the messages I see indicate
your only interest is in proselytizing your cause and demeaning those who
you believe are immoral.
Dan and I don't always agree but if you are truly interested in improving
your communications skills please pay attention to his advice when he says:
"You are much too narrow-minded to be taken seriously."
You show no ability to see this issue through any perspective other than
your own very sad experience. One of the first steps in effective
communication is to see through the eyes of your target audience. If your
flyers are intended only for people who believe exactly as you do, then they
may be effective, but I strongly suspect from your posts in this group that
you'd like to reach a much different target audience.

Personally i think the various books on the KamaSutra and tantric sex much
more erotic and interesting on the discovery of the couple relationship than
the bible.
You live and thrive through the bible and a "so called god, or christ", so
it seems like everything which is out of the field of your ideals is bad,
and should not be seen, done and so on. Giving condoms in school is no
promotion of sexual abuse, it's AIDS prevention, i had sexual education at
school around the age of 11, didn't make me a crazy pervert wanting to just
jump on any girl before i was ready ... Communication again, it's not by
telling kids that a wank is no good, that books and magazines, movies and
websites are bad and should be banned that we will solve the sexual abuse
problem, it's more with Talking it out with them, understanding them and
trying to get what they understand about it to be able to refocus things. I
talked about sex and porn with my parents, asked questions, if it wasn't
easy for them everyday, i had some answers with time, and in the words i
could understand, and that's what comes out...
I personnally don't think that watching a porn movie, and going to porn
sites are bad, i just think we need to give more time to kids, on
communication, not just work a 8am-8pm job with 2 hrs commuting and then
conside that school can do an education... We are here to focus on things,
like our parents were (maybe not all of them did, but well it's still what
they are here for IMPO).
I feel like you should maybe find a forum on porn flaming and just hit on it
like a crazy boy, but here on this design forum, you could focus on the real
thing we're interested in, your work, TJ's work and other's work to improve
our skills, give and take with others for free or cash when obvious. Just
show us your work, what you've done, you're doing or so and we could give

Yup. I have experineced "unfinished murder" a common term among those who
have been abused. Let me say that again so you understand, a COMMON term
among those who have been abused. Another appropriate term is "dead man
walking." Abuse destroys the victim. Most never recover. A few experience
partial recovery. A small portion are like Dave Pelzer, able to overcome
the effects of abuse. Read "A Child Called It," "Lost Child," and "A Man
Named Dave." He represents a miniscule of those who have truly recovered
and used the experience to grow stronger.

Have you ever READ Song of Solomon? I dare you to read it with a good
commentary that explains the language that was common to ancient Israel.
I HAVE looked at the Kama Sutra and others. I DID read Joy of Sex. They
don't even come close to the passion found in one simple passage, Prov
5:18-19
May your fountain be blessed,
and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth.
A loving doe, a graceful deer--
may her breasts satisfy you always,
may you ever be captivated [intoxicated, as with wine] by her love.
(from New International Version)
Do you know the hisotry of the Kama Sutra? I learned it in college a half a
lifetime ago. The belief was that having an orgasm gave part of your life
to the other person. Therefore, the Kama Sutra was designed to have a woman
have multiple orgasms so the man would gain in life spirit. How loving of
man!

Why do STD's and pregnancies go UP when condoms are handed out? Kids NEED
to be told what is good and what is bad. That is why we have to teach
children not to play with guns, not to ride their bike without a helmet and
to obey the traffic rules, not to talk to strangers, not to play with
matches, not to run with a sucker in their mouth, and the list goes on and
on and on. Of course that does not apply to sex. Why is that? Are you so
hung up on your perversion that you have to make special rules for sex?
YES! THAT is why sex has a special set of rules, or should I say one
special rule, HANDS OFF MY DESTRUCTIVE BEHAVIOR!

That is what I did. Porn is dog poop and destructive to society. Just go
to your local university and check out the psychologhy journals on
sexuality. The studies all show that pornography leads to destructive
behavior, both self-destructive and destructive to those they come into
contact with.
Will be gone for 2 1/2 weeks. Hopefully inteligence will come to this

When men first learned to navigate the open seas using the stars as their
'road map,' a whole new world opened up to them. Until the development of

primary instrument of navigation at sea. It was said, 'He who is a slave of
the compass enjoys the freedom of the open sea."
Tommy Tenney, "The Daily Chase."

They ARE immoral and they degrade those involved. That is not opinion but

Gee, isn't that a very narrow-minded view? Yes, I am passionate about
preventing abuse. Those who get great things done are always narrow-minded
(focused) and passionate. Most victims believe that, too. It is only the
ones who can get through the shame and guilt (recognizing that they were NOT
at fault) that they can speak out against it.
I have tried several times to send with an attachment of one of my
brochures, but it would not be accepted. If you want you can check out my
web site under development at www.stopassaultnow.org and give me an
evaluation of that site. Also below is an editorial that I wrote that was
well received by the local Family Resources group for your evaluation (they
deal with sexual assault victims on a daily basis, along with domestic
violence). Are they narrow-minded also? They also have to deal with the
victims of the customers of the porn web sites.
"Increase Your Manhood!" "Manhood Enlargement!" If you have the internet
you are probably familiar with these or similar email subject lines. Well,
it is important for a man to increase his manhood, but it doesn't come from
a drug and is not measured by the size of a body part. Instead it is
measured by how much he respects and honors and lifts up the women around
him. It comes from self-control and selflessness. Real men do not do porn.
Real men do not go to "gentlemen's clubs." Real men do treat women as
ladies, not as some inanimate object or as a conquest. Guys, April is
National Sexual Assault Awareness Month. Are you part of the problem or the
solution?

Seriously... call one more person a pervert... how about you treat people with
a little respect... you're awfully abusive to people you dont know for someone
who advocates teaching people to not abuse. I think you are full of shit and
turning out to be quite the hypocrite. Thats great that you found god or
whatever... but why don't you take your bitching somewhere appropriate... you
are totally relentless. What do you think you are going to accomplish by
posting one redundant thing after another? We get it... you don't like porn....
you abused so and so... so and so was abused... we are all heathens.... we are
all perverts... thats great... point made. If you really cared about your
"cause" I think you would find a more appropriate way to convey that message. I
am open to all kinds of things, all kinds of people... I will listen to almost
anyone's opinion and try to respect that regardless of how I might feel... if
they represent themselves in a way that is polite. In my opinion, you owe the

You call me uneducated without knowing me, you tell me that i'm stuck in my
perversion, you don't even know me, what my background is, and so on. You
tell me i didn't look into the subject, you have no clue if i have or not.
You just live and talk over the name and speech of christ and the bible,
what's not in there, or not good in your eyes should be evinced ? wow, that
won't leave us with very much, and i didn't really feel that that passage
was very erotic sorry, but i guess it's not the same kind of erotism we can
understand, i'm dumb, you're bright and intelligent, you're the star, and
we're all pricks, you're absolutely right.
What i am happy with though, is that amongst all the pricks, stupid
uneducated people, idiots, sexual abusers, sexually harassed girls, women,
and men on this forum, i find myself very human, and very humble. All these
people on this board who you disagree with and slaunt through your rant are
just the reflection of society, but as you don't understand or seem to
understand the society, i feel that you should just go and find the adequate
society and not try to make it to your image, because you're image isn't
exactly focused.
When you have a good reflection on things, but you start of with the wrong
base, you'll never end up with a correct result, and that's what you're
doing, you're right about the issues of abuse, but your base on porn is
incorrect, and that leads you to an incorrect result.
Please, just stop insulting people, telling us what we should think or do,
if we wish to do porn, let us do it, until porn is illegal you have no say
in the matter, moreover, if it's illegal in the US, maybe it won't be in
other countries, so just do your homework, get back to your little word
documents to write letters to people and make mass mailings to promote your
cause. What i can see here too is that issues with sexual harassement in the
US has led to many problems too, men and women are often affraid to date, or
ask for a date, because the don't know if they are at risk. They use Dating
services who really abuse, yes financially and so on, to find them people.
US Citizens go for eastern country girls, through those services because
they can't find the person in the US. But i'm sorry to say, that's really
sad and scary, because there are plenty of really kind, loving, and great
men and women in the US, and they don't match because of such crazy things ?
That certainly leads to sexual misbehaviours, because if a guy just
thinks... well what do i have to loose, in any case i'll be sued for Sexual
harassement, why bother... i'll just give it a try..

STD's don't go up with condoms handed out, that's totally untrue, you're
giving us shit, they go up when you hand out condoms with NO information on
how to use them, and information on the STD's and so on.
No, there aren't any special rules, i teach the kid, i don't TELL him, i
explain what's good and what's bad and that's always a personal opinion,
like i don't christian my kid at birth, because i feel that if he needs a
christning somestage in his life, he will have that choice, and not an
imposition from my part.
and i see that you're talking about sex and not porn anymore here, didn't
you tell me on a previous post that porn was the issue and not sex ? now
you're muddling yourself in your words.

I feel that you should maybe just never come back ... we won't miss you over
the board, well i certainly won't, and i'm about sure some of us won't mind
thinking like me.
What erika and all the others on this thread said are our opinions, now if
you don't accept them, just leave if you don't like them, you don't have to
stay to listen or read them, no one forces you, but don't come and piss us
off with your attitude, and bad manners, insulting us all over the place,
calling us names, words, or things that we aren't. You don't go in a bar
where people smoke, and piss them off if it's not a non-smoking area just to
get them to stop do you ? I would love to see you in a Biker's reunion
telling them not to smoke, not to burp and so on.
On this i think i'm over with all that, i really need a wank... ;o)

No, you are certainly allowed to look and learn, as well as proseltyze and
demean those you think are immoral. Newsgroups don't control what you post.
However, if you want others here to respect your perspective, I believe you
need to particpate in a way that shows you respect others.

No, that is an opinion. Plain and simple. You have a very hard time
distinguishing opinion from fact throughout your posts. To your mind, your
opinions are fact, but that does not make them so.

I'm having a hard time understanding how this proves that your demeaning
opinions about some of the people on here are facts. They are not
necessarily visiting that site, or others that tout abuse, even if they
visit sites you would deem pornographic. But if this is the kind of logic
you use to reach your conclusions, no wonder so many disagree with you.

My, my, no self-esteme problem on your end, obviously. However, I
categorically disagree with your OPINION here. Narrow minded people did not
accomplish those things. It took hundreds and thousands, even millions of
broad-minded people working together to move opinion, despite disagreement
on some aspects of their "cause" to change thoughts and morals. Those people
worked together through consensus building, not through insults and
polarization. In fact if you look at how societal change is implemented it
is by "moving the middle," something that is almost never accomplished by
the extreme and radical fringe. One person never accomplishes societal
change alone. It takes many people, working together. That implies that
their will be some honest disagreement, some compromise, and some
willingness to accept the other person's perspective, i.e. broadmindedness
If you look seriously at how opinion is really changed iand molded, it is
done in small increments. Finding points of agreement and exploiting them.
Look at how it is done in politics. The current American conservative
movement is a great example. Conservatism in America has not grown by
alienating those with whom you have a level of agreement. It was
accomplished over time, by finding common points of agreement, and then
showing how those points of agreement logically lead to the next step for
understanding and agreement.
Your methods polarize. Your posts scream that either you must agree in full
or you're the enemy, never a good tactic for convincing anyone the validity
of your opinions. Take up any good text in public relations and public
persuasion. Your methods are generally considered to be an anathema. I've
been in the public realtions business a long time, and I have never seen
your methods bring about real change or persuation.
Your tactics alienate even those with whom you might be able to find some
level of agreement (like me, for example) Take a look through the responses
to your posts. Many who might be willing to accept some of the things you
have said can't hear the good things you say because of the angry, abusive
rhetoric you use. That's right, abusive. You are still a verbal abuser and
use bullying rhetorical tactics, you've just changed who you are abusing and
why, in my opinion. It may be all you know. It may be you have a need to
abuse and have found a cause you feel justifies your being verbally abusive.
As far as your communications strategies go, however, I would bet that not
one mind has been changed in your favor by your posts here. But many, many
minds have been solidified against you, even those who may have cause to
agree with you on some issues. Can you realistically say that your
communications tactics here on this group have had your desired effect?
But, hey, you are certainly free to disregard this advice. (and that is all
it is, my advice to you, my opinion) You asked for ways to improve your
communications and I offered my observations based on your posts. Your
tactics, in my opinion, are counterproductive to your desired outcome of
improving you communications, raising consciousness on this issue, and
changing opinion. I offered a way for you to improve. Please disregard all I
say, if that is your inclination. If you prefer, continue along the lines
you have in this group and the results will be just as you have seen to
date. Even you must admit that the outcome of your posts have been anything
but positive.
> Those who get great things done are always narrow-minded
> (focused) and passionate.
Focused, yes, narrow-minded, no. They are very, very different words with
very different definitions, not the same as you imply.

This is not a binary newgroup. File attachments are a no no. Thanks for your
posting of your web site, however. I will take a look. If you'd like to
discuss it when you come back, I'd be glad to. My comment, at a quick
glance, is that you don't demonstrate any of the polarizing rhetoric on you
site that you display on this group, and that is a good thing. However, your
rhetoric here will keep many from visting your site or taking it seriously,
and that is counterproductive to your intent, I believe.
When you get back, please post the link again and respectfully ask opinions
and I am sure you will get many helpful comments to improve it. Put your
brochures up on your web as JPG's or PDF's and give links to them, and you
may get some great advice from this group. As it stands now, I'd be
surprised if many would willingly get involved because of your negative
rhetoric. (I could be wrong, that is an opinion)

See, we can find an area on which we agree. You don't have to be insulting
or demeaning. Build on that. I would change the word "women" above, to the
word "people", all people, even those you disagree with. I would add, that
being a man comes from living up to the committments you make, accepting
responsibility and nuturing and protecting those that you love and those
that need love and protection. I've got 24 years of a very loving marriage

Fred,

Er.. one question...
I happened to see your site and observed the following sentence "
MIGHTY GOSPEL OUTREACH
Committed to boldly sharing His glorious gospel, through equipping and
strengthening the Body of Christ.
So, are you saying that only those who believe in the Bible are the ones who
deserve to be protected/strengthened and educated? And there is no other way
to do that even though you adopted martial arts as a means to an end.
(Which, as I recall is not related to Christianity in the very least). So
Mike, What happens to those unfortunate victims who belong to some other
religion..??? Do they have to convert before being qualified to be saved?
Just a question from one narrow minded person to another....

But, ah, well, truth be known I'm not always the best at following my own
advice. (As some on this group will attest :-) ) I don't think Mike's
methods of making his points are particularly unique. I, for one, have
certainly done the same thing. It is easy to get caught up in the emotion of
the moment and write or say things that are divisive and/or alienating
trying to reinforce your opinions. The issue Mike has taken on is
particularly emotional, especially for him. We all have hot-button issues
that bring out our emotions in strange ways.

Could you elaborate? Like who? I do agree with that statement but now you've
piqued my interest. Some folks do see things as strictly black and white and
that's not always a bad thing when it comes to certain situations, like the
Holocaust.
I think porn is dog poo poo too. I think many of the folks who have gotten
their noses out of joint with one of the posters are probably porn site
visitors... heh. Porn is rubbish, like smoking, no matter how you try to dress
it up, it still stinks.
Thanks.

You're obviously entitled to your beliefs as is everyone else, so I'll
leave you to judge yourself for what you are - narrow minded or
focussed.
Oh, by the way, all the great minds in history were the ones with the
largest perspective... they had the courage to look at everything
objectively and the wisdom to believe in what was important.

The question is, who gets to decides what's important.
And the reality of this particular "if you don't agree with it, it's not
important." mind-set is it's about as selectively closed-minded (nevermind
narrow-minded) as you can get.
I give this person a lot of credit for being passionate about his
principles. Whether I agree with them or not. At least, he *does* something
besides sitting around bitching. Moralizing I can deal with. Weak-kneed
superficial hypocrites are another story.
Then again, my newsreader is quirky and I'm not sure if I've read the whole
thread. ha!
: )

I am just fascinated with language and a phrase like narrow mind is
particularly interesting to me. My comment was really more about definitions
than anything to do with the topic of this thread. So having said that...
As far as "focused" goes -- if you are focused on dog poo, you had better be
pretty darn creative and for that matter "narrow minded" in your ideals, to
make something noteworthy of it.
Sorry but I really do think "narrow minded" is the correct phrase --
particularly when it comes to peoples life's work (which is what makes them
stand out). When it comes to that work, great historical figures or even
great every-day people tend to have a set of standards that they will
unflinchingly stick to. Yes, they may freely observe everything else, it
would probably be unwise not to, but until something else comes along that
they believe supercedes that standard they'll stick to it. Anything that
they observe falling outside of that narrow canyon of a standard in their
mind is left alone.
I will proudly (with a devilish smirk) claim to be "narrow minded" --
doesn't mean that I am intolerant, unobservant, thoughtless or without
compassion. Plus, when I tell people that it tends to spark some really
interesting conversation.

I am anti-porn myself. But I do believe strongly that a careful study of
human anatomy (that means "figure drawing" classes) can be extremely
valuable for anyone pursuing a career in design. Some people would probably
classify nude models as porn -- where do you draw the line?

Narrow mindedness? By definition the phrase means: : lacking in tolerance or
breadth of vision. I cannot consider Rand lacking in vision.
The standard by which these artists/designers executed their art/design was
comprised of their personal considerations for good design coupled with
whatever design/art education they had acquired and their own natural talents
and intuitive styles.
To label them 'narrow-minded' seems a disservice considering their astounding
influence on the industry itself, as well as, future artists and designers.
Perhaps 'tenacious' or 'pertinacious' would be a better way to describe such
channeled behavior.
>Some people would probably
>classify nude models as porn -- where do you draw the line?
heh, draw the line? Gary, you pun. :)
Pornography is described as:
1 : the depiction of erotic behavior (as in pictures or writing) intended to
cause sexual excitement
2 : material (as books or a photograph) that depicts erotic behavior and is
intended to cause sexual excitement.
Figure drawing is an essential and valuable skill for any artist. While
resulting drawings may ellicit sexual arousal, imo, I can not see how it could
be consider pornography anymore than nude beaches could be considered porn
movie sets. The intent is not there.

I simply question the popular definition for the term "narrow mindedness"
and am willing to play with it -- sounds like your the narrow-minded one
here ;)
In the dictionary under narrow it reads "Lacking flexibility; rigid: narrow
opinions". Maybe you've been reading a different Paul Rand than I have --
the one I've been reading fits that pretty close -- dogmatic to the enth
degree. I think it's beautiful and I love his work, but I wouldn't want to
work under the guy.

Believe me -- I know people who would consider a nude model in a figure
drawing class offensive. Good people, who I like very much by the way -- we
just disagree on where that boundary is.

What's the big difference in seeing your nude partner, some nude
people on a beach, a nude model, some people f*ing on tv? Essentially
nothing. They raise sexual thoughts now and then. So?
The difference: If you KNEW some model was being abused just before,
if you would know he/she did anything against their very own FREE
will, and you kept watching, you know you're feeding the animal inside
each of us.
Don't feed the animal.
It doesn't love you.

Yes, people do tend to get narrow-minded, but if they've reached that stage
after evaluating all possible perspectives, then it changes definition and
moved into what is called "clear focus". I may be really bending towards an
impression to make a point here but the way I see it is like this...
Take a guy with a camera with a zoom lens. He looks throught the viewfinder
and what he sees, he believes. That is narrow-minded. On the other hand,
take a guy who sees the world with a wide-angle lens, selects what he finds
interesting and then changes lens to a zoom and focusses on what he
considers important. That is being focussed.
Now, in retrospect, I don't believe you've taken the time and the initiative
to view the world as it is. Agreed, we're surrounded by a lot of sickos, but
that doesn't give us the moral pright to brand everyone as a pervert. In
fact, most aren't. C'mon, what is porn? It's just watching stuff on-screen
that you would have had to make a trip to the neighborhood brothel for a few
decades back. It is a manifestation of the oldest profession, coming a very
close second to politics. So...
- Admit that it exists
- People who watch it aren't necessarily perverts
- A large portion of the people who watch it are regular people with normal
lives
- They are not hurting/abusing/deceiving anybody else
- It is legal, or else ther would have been legislation against it
To take a blanket opinion of the issue reminds me of a joke that I read
once...
A man was sitting in a fishing boat, reading his book, in the middle of the
lake when a female police officer came to him and said the since it wasn't
fishing season, she'd have to fine him for fishing.
He said "I'm not fishing, I'm simply reading a book"
She said "But you're in a fishing boat with all the equipment. That makes
you as a person who is fishing"
So the man said "In which case, I'd have to make a citizen's arrest and
arrest you for prostitution.
She said "But I'm not a prostitute"
"But you're equipped to be one", he quipped.
Get the point? In the same sense, stopping kids from handling guns isn't the
point, but educating them of the consequences is good education.. The same
goes for sex. And the same goes for porn.

Semantics. Play away. :) However, when you use a 'popular' phrase for something
you should expect that it will be interpreted in the 'popular' fashion, yes?
Of course, you could re-educate the public on the new definition every time you
use the expression. Some of the most clever advertising tag lines result from
such twisting. But their success depends upon the general public's ability to
make the jump, yes.
sounds like your the narrow-minded one
>here ;)
By whose definition? ;)
Why do you interpret my confusion and question of your use of the term
'narrow-mindedness' in regard to Rand's artistic philosophies as
narrow-mindedness on my part?
Perhaps 'single-mindedness' would have been a better description of their
[Rand, et al] dogged control freak determination to adhere to their own
design/artistic standards.
>Believe me -- I know people who would consider a nude model in a figure
>drawing class offensive.
Because of nudity or because the models mostly all look like Rodney
Dangerfield? :)
Yeah, nothing says 'dirty offensive sex' like standing naked and still for up
to an hour at a time, in a cold, brightly lit room in front of a crowd of
nervous students. jeez, that's actually a 'popular' nightmare for some people.
but Yes, I know what you mean; I just think it's ludicrous to think of a life
drawing class that way.
Of course, I also respect someone else's right to feel another way about it.
And that's called open-mindedness.

If you KNEW for a fact that some model was being abused right before the
filming then maybe you should go and save her/him. Turning off the vcr doesn't
really register very high on the 'I value human life' scale... although not
rewinding might hurt a bit... :P
Maybe the movie boxes should require a sticker on them: NO MODELS were ABUSED
in the making of this VIDEO.
Maybe those girls didn't _really just 'go wild' for those videos but were
forced into it.
Maybe you should not buy/rent any of those videos at all...just to be safe.
Otherwise you're just feeding the animals... the ones who make the movies, that
is.
they don't love you either.

That's not such a bad idea IMO.
They should have some "not abused" sticker like the ones on persian
carpets that say "no childlabor".
>Maybe those girls didn't _really just 'go wild' for those videos but were

You never know, do you.
But isn't that the same with almost every product you buy or look at?
I live in a old city that was partly built with the revenues from
slavery. Should we burn the houses down?
Is a chinese or indian production worker forced to work in the factory
before I could buy some funny, decorational birthday gift?
How much illegal underpayed mistreated men/women have been used before
I could buy a piece of fruit, a t-shirt , a football?
>Maybe you should not buy/rent any of those videos at all...
But they are part of the internet, cable-tv. and economy.
>just to be safe.
As I commented above you are never safe. With almost any product you
buy or look at.
>Otherwise you're just feeding the animals... the ones who make the movies, that
>is.
I've seen a heroin hooker on the winterstreets.
But I've also seen a tv program in which a lot of succesfull
pornactors (m/w) were interviewed. They all were looked down at by
society. Even with their $300.000 car under their but.
They looked much like a successfull artist by me. Spit against by 80%
of society. But still needed and (sometimes) respected by the rest.
And to become topic again:
Who cares for design.graphics anyway?
>they don't love you either.
Those models shure loved the cheque.
Don't know about the heroin hooker. I respect and love her, that's for
sure. But what can I do?
