	I don't have time to post a comprehensive reply to this
issue right now, but...

	If someone took away my Anais Nin erotica on the grounds
that it is degrading to women, I'd be pissed!

	(on the other hand, I would like to know what percentage
of females read/look at porn and other sexualy explicit materials;;
nearly all the men I know do (or have at some time) but not so
many of the women...and I agree with the person who finds romance
novels just as offensive (or moreso) as non-violent porn.


more to follow,

Ann
