Against Porn and Smut? Oh, Really!
September 21, 2007
There was this congressman, who’s name I can’t be bothered to remember, on the news yesterday who wanted to ban the publication of FHM because, according to him, it destroys people’s morality, or so what I could recall from what he said over a TV interview. As most of you know, I am a pro-smut supporter. But even though, I passed it off as just another political charade. Well, who wouldn’t anyway? Politicians are all alike. May it be senators, congressmen or whatever. It’s all about money and power. If the reason is as cheezy as “protection of people’s innocence” or something, I don’t think people would even buy such lies. Besides, innocence is a word that does not exist anywhere in this world anymore. There may be a lot of uneducated people as they are, but there’s a lot of difference between an uneducated person and a plain stupid person who keeps closing his eyes. In Tagalog, malaki ang pagkakaiba ng isang taong walang pinag-aralan ang ng isang taong sadyang tanga and nagbubulagbulagan. (Ah, Tagalog definitely sounds better. It creeps you out to the bone. Or my English is just crappy.) Whatever the hidden agenda behind that FHM and other smutty magazine banning, given their reason (the facade one), I don’t think that reason is even enough to ban them. I think they should think of a better and more convincing reason than that. It’s even crappier than my English, seriously.
