A Guide to Christian Sex

Exoduspodcasts.com

I suppose religious zealots finally realized that sex sells… that or they were tired of their teenagers still getting pregnant and thereafter having to turn them into  some kind of social  neomartyrs. Sex in Christ, this precious gem I stumbled across, outlines, according to the authors, the stipulations of “Christian” sex.

The homepage explains the reasons for having anal sex before marriage, proclaiming that it preserves a woman’s “pure, unsullied maidenhead.”

It even makes a case for masterbation, fisting, and Christian pornography!

        knows and cares so much about politics that they still work at H&M.

3. “I wanted to buy you a drink but you nursed your glass of wine all evening.”
     I don’t know if I can be attracted to people who are not up to my
    drinking ability.

Last year when I was standing in the Starlight Ballroom for a Ted Leo show, they announced an open invitation to an anarchist bookstore party. I shrugged off the idea, calling it off as ridiculous and  strangely pretentious. It stirs up the same kind of mixed antagonistic feelings that I hear when people talk about vintage clothing and indie vinyl stores. It makes me think of cut-off jeans and green militant cyclists. Something about the way that these things are said, implying some sort of special detachment from mainstream society really pisses me off–as if the action, even the thought, of going to non-corporate store made someone more of something (smarter, faster, better) than I was.
