Let's take a look at some history that includes sexual materials from the government, compared to sexual material that is produced by one of the largest supposed "smut peddlers" in the US, Hustler.  From
a press release from LFP (Larry Flynt Productions) in 1998:According to a chart in the September 18-24 issue of L.A. Weekly, the number of graphic references to genitalia in Hustler Online Magazine is 44; the number of graphic references to genitalia in the Starr Report is 69. Just a few more notes to keep you amused. How much sex is going on out there? 
The World Health Organization, which is charged with monitoring global reproduction,
estimates that each day, some 100 million
people engage in acts of sexual intercourse, resulting in about 910,000
conceptions and 350,000 cases of sexually transmitted disease.
SOBERING ALEXIA NOTE: The CDC estimates there are over 1 million living with HIV in the United States alone. No glove, no love -- a mantra to live by. Do gays make the best soldiers? In today's military, it's "don't ask, don't tell." The American armed services don't really want gays in the military, but they will try to look the other way. Such was not the case in ancient Greece. 
The Greeks actually encouraged love between two men and quite often stationed
the gay lovers side by side. They felt that such a bond would make their
soldiers even braver, in that the lovers would be more willing to die together
than to appear cowardly in the other's eyes.Gay soldiers were also thought to be more loyal to the army than their heterosexual counterparts, who had a wife and kids at home to think about. One of the Greek's best corps of shock troops were the Sacred Band of Thebes, which was comprised of three hundred men, all homosexual pairs. They fought valiantly in battle together for nearly 33 years. In 338 B.C., they were defeated by Alexander the Great at the battle of Chaeronea, where 254 died, and the other 46 were taken prisoner.
