Extreme Goes Nuts In Brazil

Gregory Bowman writes: Club Confidential January 2000 has a pictorial called ON SET "Brazil Nuts" With Extreme Associates and photos of non condom anal shots with she males and the assorted unsafe risks I have reported on previously. Listed as American talent are: Ashlyn Gere, Jasmine St Clair, Lizzy Borden, Rob Black, and Tom Byron. The article reports that Rob and Tom shot a double dose of porn videos and spent their nights in nightclubs and whorehouses. It continued with the play by play of scenes and none of the pictures showed a single condom. MORE GOOD TIMES! I would appreciate your comments at Nathan's_Parable@yahoo.com

Ashley Kennedy writes Gregory: Are you the guy ranting on Luke F-rd's website about the dangers of Hepatitis C? I'd love to see these studies you reference, so if you can back it up, please do. If you can't, then you should really stop spreading misinformation. While I agree that talent should be routinely tested for the various strains of Hepatitis, along with all of the STD's, your facts aren't straight. HCV is very RARELY transmitted sexually, as it's a blood-borne virus and the 85 percent mortality rate you quoted in the first three years for patients untreated with Interferon is just plain bulls---. Most people go YEARS without even being diagnosed, much less treated. Some people go for decades, because there are few telltale signs, and unfortuantely regular screening is far from widespread. In addition, not everybody with HCV gets Interferon. It's not a cure-all. Not even close. Yes, Hepatits C is a deadly disease, incurable, silent and final. But it generally takes a long time for it to ! take down an otherwise healthy adult, and that's the truth. I have plethora of medical information to back up what I'm saying. Do you?

Gregory Bowman replies: I would love to see your data on the morbidity and mortality on Hep C. My information AS CITED was taken from UCLA School of Medicine, Symposium on Immunotherapy 2000, and Morbidity and Mortality Weekly April 2000. It certainly is a blood born virus but with anal sex there is tearing of the tissue. It has been associated with sexual transmission as well. The approximate 85% mortality of Hep C is of those patients showing active disease- or clincal symptioms with elevated serum antibodies. Yes there are cases of latent infection and the data is still inconclusive as to the modes of infection and mortality. I would love to see you scientific citations regarding it and appreciate your reply. However I must tell you that you misstate the facts that most people go years without being diagnosed; the data does not support that Hep C has had that long of a tracking surveilence so where are you getting your data? Hepatitis C monitoring has not been known for decades so you are clearly offbase there. Please share and I will be more than glad to discuss this more. I would ask that you refrain from the profanity in that it only makes your position lacking in credibility.

Earl Miller - Art Reflecting Life

Gregory Bowman writes: I feel it necessary to inform your readers when I meet someone who truly is a wonderful and inspirational person.

I had the opportunity to meet and watch Mr. Earl Miller, one of the most brilliant photographers and lead photographer for Penthouse Magazine.

I met Mr. Miller on a shoot for Penthouse when driving Cheyenne Silver to and from the studio. She informed me beforehand that Earl was very particular and demanded a closed set. I had heard various rumors about Mr. Miller from people in the business. Some comments were negative.

After meeting Earl I was taken aback by his overwhelming positive and friendly personality. He was gracious and I felt very at ease around him. Mr. Miller seemed to be a man who is truely concerned with making others feel comfortable. I have worked with many photographers in the past and I know that the best tend to have certain "quirks" and are usually very short and lack social grace.

Earl Miller was one of the kindest men, photographer or not, I have met in a long time. His friendly and positive attitude left me feeling like there are still good people in this world.

I can see why he is the best at what he does. His care and positive approach definately shows in his work. His images are heavenly and I am confident it is based on his warmth and concern. His artistic ability certainly is a reflection of his warmth and grace.

Anyone who works with Earl Miller should feel blessed and I would personally love to work under him; just to be apart of what brilliance really is. Mr. Miller, you are tops in my book and if you ever would consider it, I would love to be apart of your artistic inspirations. Comments and dialog may be sent to Nathans_parable@yahoo.com

Elyse's Fundraiser Hell

MikeSouth.com writes: Unfortunately, the Cincinnati PD didn't like us, Elyse was arrested again, this time for running a sexually oriented business without a sexually oriented business license, a law that has already been found to be unconstitutional.

I am writing more about this but wanted to get this up as soon as possible.

There are several people who deserve a LOT of thanks.

The people in Elyses neighborhood were very supportive of us, many showed up and helped us, they even made signs that said "What happened to the first amendment" and "The police are the only obscenity here" The mostly female protesters were breath of fresh air and the community support was my validation that I was doing the right thing.

The Chub restaurant from a block away brought excellent food to us all and we were every appreciative having been there since Elyses arrest at 4 PM we were all famished and once again the local community helped us out. Please drop in and tell em Mike South sent ya!

Radio Station WEBN and the Dawn Patrol for putting Myself and Veronica Knight on the air, we had a ball on that show!

Radio Station WLW and Host Bill Cunningham for devoting an entire show and having myself and Elyse on it as well as allowing Veronica Knight to call in. He treated us fairly and with respect and we had fun to boot.

All the TV Stations who gave us fair and balanced coverage and were really very nice to us the stations include Channels 2, 5, 12, 19, and 25 and I may have even missed one or two.

Paul Vega, who came out and covered the event as an independent writer for The City Beat.

Dallas from www.sinsinnati.com who was very supportive and helpful.

Lou Sirkin and Jennifer who answered my questions honestly and intelligently and who kept my ass out of jail.

And last but certainly not least the girls who made it happen:

Veronica Knight was a doll, she never complained, she did every radio show, every event and travelled from North Carolina at her own expense to help out. She is a beautiful girl and an absolute sweetheart, she is looking to work in adult video now and I highly recommend her. You can even contact me and I will put you in touch with her. (I'm not an agent just helping her out)

Felicia Fox and her boyfriend Tim (the only suitcase pimp in the biz who actually gives the term a good meaning!) Friends of mine since her first shoot Felicia is beautiful, intelligent and well spoken and was welcome addition to the event.

Taylor Hill (Magazine Model) She is sexy and adorable and fun she kept everyone laughing and having fun.

Elyse for having us and for having more balls than everyone at the Free Speech Cabal combined.

And all the people of Cincinnati who proved to us that it isn't the people of Cincinnati who are f---ed up, it's the government. It should be noted here that from the entire time I was out there on Friday in front of Elyses store (4PM till almost 11PM) not one single person wanted Elyses Passion gone EVERY SINGLE person from the neighborhood and business community who stopped by was supportive and many gave money to help her out. Thank You all and if I missed anyone it wasn't intentional.

Mike South Wants Your Help

MikeSouth.com writes: I am involved with a multi award winning documentary film maker who is finishing up a documentary that WILL air on HBO in early 2002. This is not a hatchet job on the industry, it is honest and well done.

What we are looking to do is anonymously get several 'kids of pornmoms'---any age--- that know what their Mom does. It would just be audio. No one will know who they are or who their mother is, unless they specifically request it. It can even be arranged to be done through me so that the producers don't even know who you are---that is fine. They would be answering three questions---

#1- What does your mom do for a living?

#2- How old were you when you found out?

#3- What are the 3 best things about what she does for a living? What are the 3 worst things about what she does for a living?

We would just title them with 'Son or Daughter' and their age., unless specifically requested to do otherwise. Please contact me at xxxsouth@yahoo.com or at xxxsouth@bellsouth.net we can do it in person or via the net on mp3 or .wav files.

Does Dr. Joseph Slade Wank To Porn?

Ian writes: Hi Luke, I found it interesting to read Dr. Slade describe how he has watched thousands of porno videos, and that he watches them until he 'burns out'. If I like a porno video I want to wank, and find it impossible to stop myself if I am alone. If I don't like a porno video I usually find it too boring to watch, because such videos are made for wanking to, and for nothing else. Citizen Kane or Gone With The Wind they aren't. Once I have wanked to a good porno video I am usually too tired to watch any more. I wonder how Dr. Slade gets over this physiological phenomenon - or perhaps he's differently constituted.

A Holler Out To Michael Raven And Sydney Steele

Tony writes: Dear Luke: Is there anyway that you cold get a holler to Michael Raven for me. I consider him one of the real "cutting edge" adult film directors and really enjoy the fact that he usually turns out videos that have both a good story line and strong sexual cinematography. I would of course like you to convey the above fact and express my appreciation to him for proving that really good entertainment can be made with limited financial resources, compared to the main stream Hollywood companies. I guess I have become somewhat demanding and selective over the years and thus, am always searching for an adult movie to stimulate the mind as well as the body. For this reason, I try to obtain Raven's work whenever possible. Now, for the second request. I am one of those men who have always found a certain sexual attraction when a good looking woman smokes. I am not talking about cigars. The bulk and shape of a cigar looks awkward in a woman's face and hands. With a cigarette (especially the longer and slender feminine brands) there is a strong sexual aspect, however, that can't be denied.

For me, a pretty woman's lips wrapped around the long all-white tube (sans a holder) conveys a strong phallic symbolism (if you get my drift) What I would like for you to do is get this message out to Mr. Raven and ask him to use the cigarette and a woman smoking as a sexy prop to build both character and plot in his videos as much as possible. He should also know (imho) that of the women who do smoke from time-to-time (never often enough) in adult films, Sydnee Steele is the classiest and sexiest and I truly look forward to all of her films, because she is also such a polished actress, making any character she portrays come alive. Sadly in my opinion, there are only a handful of ladies in the adult business with strong thespian skills.I also realize that Raven is Sydnee's husband.

So, hopefully Michael will pass those thoughts out to her and express my wish that she exploit the sexuality of her smoking talents as much as possible in her films as well. I do not know if you will or can pass on my thoughts to Michael and Sydnee, but If you could, I would really appreciate it. I would, of course, prefer to write Mr. Raven with my personal request. Since I do not know how to contact him directly, I am writing to you because I have noticed he corresponds on your very entertaining and informative web site occasionally and hopefully, you would know how to contact him. I am afraid if I sent this letter to Sin City, some lackey might get ahold of it and never give the request to Mr. Raven. I realize this will be an imposition for you and I both apologize and thank you for whatever you can do.

Jewel DeNyle Goes Black?

John writes: Luke, according to a post/email response from Jewel Denyle on Mr. Marcus's site she has gone black and done a scene with Marcus. Jewel once claimed she would not do so, so much for what she preaches, this is the female performer of the year with her own line of movies and many fans, why sell out, if you say something like no gangbangs, or no dp's or no interracial, then stick to it, the fans who believe you are lied to. Big dissappointment, and with a turd like Marcus who brags on his site of who he got or will get next, sad to see Jewel fall into that b.s., another trophy gal, heck she does gangbangs, so why not do it all, nice move Jewel, wait for the backlash.

Mario writes: The messageboard on mr. marcus's site has reports of her and mr. m getting together in a new movie. This Marcus guy is like OJ, the more bad things he does the more the white gals want him, he really has these porn sluts by the pubic hairs, and Jewel was the next victim, do not know whether to congratulate him for being the first brother to tap that, we all knew it would happen sooner or later.

The same is true with Jenna Jameson, first she responds on your site to the rumor of her getting raped and beaten up which appeared on mr. marcus's site by calling marcus a black mother f***er, now she has plans with him for her first black for her website, nice move airhead, she really is a blond.

Then there is Tina Cheri who in an interview on your site a few years back, says she will not do blacks, another lier, she just did interracial and acts like she never made those comments. These gals seemed like they had some brains, I guess that goes away like your anal cherry and interracial cherry, and your word.

Luke Gets Mail

Tyson fan writes: Hey Luke the name of the game is getting laid. In this Adult business its hangin around to get laid. Really enjoyed your pictures of Shanna McCollugh shes is so sexy. She qualifies as a definite girl stud . Jenna Jamison is a girl stud to. The rest of the chicks have no sexuality at all. I wouldnt even F$#* them with Gene Ross's cock or a beat red calloused cock of the FlashMan. the gossip is better than the sex.

Aghast writes Luke: I still find it appalling that you ate out Kimberly Kummings AFTER 5 guys f---ed her! What the hell were you thinking?

Kara Davis writes from Karadavis.com: here is how i got into this website: i watched a segment about another couple (from the site "the wetlands" i think) on dateline nbc. i saw that they were having fun and making money. when i suggested the idea to my boyfriend, he balked at first, but then finally agreed. that was 2 years ago. now my site is growing, and i am having a good time.

Gloria Leonard writes: Appreciate your posting my Linda Lovelace response, however, I have not been President of the Free Speech Coalition for some months now. I've returned to Hawaii and relinquished both my seat on the Board and handed over my position with Private to my good buddy, Mara Epstein. Also, you might want to remind Dr. Joe that in addition to Veronica Hart and Candida Royalle, I too, have written and directed several "female point of view" projects - for Femme and Vivid.

Robert Lombard of Creative Image writes. Hey Andy the TERA PATRICK movie you are referring to in Blockbuster is a movie produced my Indigo Films a division of Playboy Entertainment Group. They are released on their "Eros" label through Universal Home Video. The movie falls under the Late Night Erotic Program category. Blockbuster has been putting these features on their shelves for sometime. After this film airs multiple times on the Playboy channel it most likely will surface on either Showtime or Cinemax. These are the feature films that a lot of Adult Talent are finding opportunities for additional work. And the first step to crossover work in mainstream. Chloe, Ava Vincent, Tina Tyler, Dru Berrymore, Gina Ryder, Lauren Montgomery, Nancy Vee, Keri Windsor, TJ Hart and others in either Lead or Co-Star roles are on the shelves in Blockbuster as well in this program format. And they're names and sometimes pictures are displayed on the box covers. One or two titles mistakenly used Dru Berrymores' birth name.

So for you fans of Ms. Berrymore also look for Nicole Hilbig. Indigo/Playboy/Eros/Universal did a smart thing by putting Ms. Patrick on the box cover. It will draw attention. You will also notice that the copies of these titles are limited, but put right up there with the BIG movies. Alternative Adult programming is selling especially with the entry of the more known Adult Talent being allowed to participate in these films other then just muttering limited dialog and doing simulated sex. One being filmed now in Italy titled "Castle Eros" for Surrender Cinema and funded by Playboy stars: Former Adult Star and the new Emmanuelle, Holly Sampson, and the well known girl/girl Adult Star Chelsea Blue.

Fred writes Luke: It sounds like his prior conversations with you lured you into believing he would be fairly tolerant of your being in a porn film, when in fact he was not. I don't know that I would or would not be fooled by your earlier exchanges with him. But you obviously now know that it is a "hot button" with him, so you have to treat it carefully.

And as a general rule, I would be super-careful about who I told about having been in a porn movie if I were you.

There is a difference between writing about something, researching something, and participating in that something.

I would ask myself this:

1. What did I learn from the experience?

2. What can I do or not do in the future to make life better for myself?

Your Future Is In Your Hand

Chaim Amalek writes: Social theorist and Luke F-rd contributor Yggdrasil raises a number of interesting questions in his letter to you (and yes, he did have YOU in mind), in which he chides Luke F-rd contributors for masturbating themselves out of existence. Allow me to rephrase his concern a bit with the following question. Let "Y" equal the fraction of ejaculations of sperm that is ejaculated by the men of a group into the vaginas of reproductively viable women. This means that "Y" does not include what goes into tissue paper (thanks for the imagery, Ms. L-patin), nor into the vaginas of women who are on the pill or who are past reproductive age or into little rubber socks (condoms). Nor does it include ejaculations that go into the colon or into women who like having abortions. (Let us passover for now, the issue of oral sex.) With this definition in mind, what is "Y" for the following groups of men?

modern orthodox jews;
hassidic jews;
secular jews or the sort who accompanied you to the soon to-be-mourned-for state of Israel;
Puerto Ricans;
Hispanics generally;
negroes;
jews who run Hollywood;
jews who run porn;
men in porn;
readers of l-keford.com;
Sodomites;
the English;
caucasians;
ChinaMen;
Indians;
Israelies;
Palestinians.

When are the readers of Luke F-rd going to put down the remote controls of their VCR's and take the affirmative step of assuring the survival of that gene pool that created movies, television, the transistor, and yes, the internet porn site, in the first place? When are you going to "get busy" with your women, who NEED men in their lives to impregnate them, lest they end up lonely spinsters with only cats for companionship. (And some companions they will be! Within a few days of their owners' deaths, we all know what those cats are going to do for food.)

Luke, you are in a unique role to help your people. Stop with the "woe is me I have BSE or CFS or CJD" act, and become the Moses of the White Race that we know you could be, leading the lost white men of the west from the wilderness of wanking to the promised land of procreative sex.

PS I ask that all readers of this missive cut-and-past the two previous paragraphs and disseminate them far and wide by whatever means are necessary. Let's make something of this.

Pat Riley Waxes Philosophic

Prometheus Books critic Patrick Riley writes on alt.cult-movies.erotica: Females are NOT equal to males, by any stretch of the imagination. Their role as breeders of the next generation condemn them to a different (not inferior) position in society. There's nothing we (males) or they can do about it and it applies regardless of whether they want children personally. Their biological functions dominate their thinking, activities, attitudes, and physical characteristics. Our current society futilely tries to pretend otherwise and in so doing creates enormous problems (deprivation of a mate for the low-class male is just one).

It sounds like you're celebrating the rise of female financial independence rather than bemoaning our fate should they ever achieve it. Don't you realize that (under your scenario) that just means less quality nookie for both you and me (and Frank)? The more you can keep them locked into the idea that they have to screw (as you put it) the balding, beer-bellied guys to achieve the good things of life, the more they're going to be available for us. Isn't that what you want? Even if you personally don't want it (why not?) why stab other males in the back and prevent them achieving the goal of more cute young pussy?

Females have an inbuilt (genetic) desire to mate with older males and males who may or are good providers for them and their progeny. Even when the female is financially well-off she's still looking to mate with a male who's better off. Men marry down; women marry up.

Minor anecdote: I have an yuppette acquaintance in her forties who's fat and ugly but who earns in excess of $500,000 per year and has been at this level for at least the last 10/20 years. She has an $8M loft in Manhattan and a house in the Hamptons. She likes live theater so last weekend she flew to London just for the weekend to see a play! By any definition she's financially independent. No kids, and doesn't want any. Her parents are comfortably off too. Who's she married to? An older venture capitalist with oodles of money. She could have any cute Brad Pitt look-a-like she wanted even with her ugliness but she doesn't. She still wants an older male who'll take care of her.

She may well like him but why does she like him? I would contend that all (or the vast majority of) females are naturally attracted to powerful, wealthy (or potentially wealthy) males who tend to be older than they (the females). Indeed they like them and they probably have huge orgasms when they have sex together. It's refuting Rogers contention that they're only putting out for older males because they lack financial independence. In his view, they hold their noses and open their thighs for Mick Jagger but if they were financially independent they'd be screwing the penniless but handsome young guy.

Of course you didn't address why they're not hanging around the high schools and screwing the young attractive guys. Vague wishing from daytime talk shows doesn't count nor does the minor aberration of that teacher in Seattle who was hounded for screwing the 13 year old boy. What would count is if I hear from my sons that they're being hit on by 35/45 year old women in college or on the job, statistics from the US Census that showed a huge rise in older women marrying younger males, popular culture magazines such as Maxim or Stuff telling anecdotally about all the older women putting out for the young guys, Good Housekeeping and Cosmo having a plethora of articles about "How to get the teenage male into the cot" as described by Miss Yuppette, male hookers (not gays) on the street just ready and willing to f--- older women, websites with the same thing--we hear a lot about nicisgirls; where's fredsboys?

Even Hollywood, bizarre as it is, hardly bears out your arguments. For every Madonna, there's a multitude of Jack Nicolson/ what's her name and 80 year old's screwing younger women. Jimmy Stewart, Mick Jagger (could you get any uglier?), the guy from "To Kill A Mockingbird" (documentary on PBS recently) are examples.

What has happened, and here I'll agree, is that young low class women no longer need to settle for the guy on the assembly line; they can reach up higher socially and, absent any available high quality male, they can even go without. This is bad for the guys who were the natural targets of these females and IMO this is largely responsible for the rise of the raincoater. Little Miss Trailer Park Trash is no longer getting married at 16 to Mr Socially Inept who then develops a huge chip on his shoulder resulting in a glorification of "degrade the bitch" movies. This is a bad thing IMO and should be from yours but it has nothing to do with girls wanting to screw younger more handsome guys. Change society back to make them dependent and you'll solve lots of Mr. Raincoater's problems.

Yikes! Why do you watch porn movies, Roger? Is it some academic exercise? Are you enthralled with the plot? Is it to educate yourself on some new sexual position as Tal might postulate? Or some other very obscure reason? (I'm not jumping on you here. Some months ago you came up with the very interesting "attainable" referring to why guys like mediocre women. That enlightened me a lot.)

The majority (like 99.999% and the rest are lying ) watch them for masturbatory assistance. In some manner or form they're imagining themselves screwing the girl. If you mean by sex, sex with another person, of course masturbation is a substitute for that type of sex. If I had a succession of cutie pies all booked in to screw for the foreseeable future I'd stop watching porn tomorrow (and stop masturbating). Even if there's some magic to masturbation that doesn't happen in real sex, you can always do what most porn studs do in the movies and masturbate into the girl.

The lack of dependence of females upon males coupled with the grass is always greener nonsense promulgated by the media shows up in many areas which result in untold misery for persons caught in the middle. Just take a small example. Because of the ease of obtaining a divorce (females able to support themselves and to extract child support from the males) we have shocking levels of divorce rates leading to single parent households leading to lack of a father for lots of children.

Even Gemini's talk show experts will tell you that this is not good for the children--in fact it's horrible for the children--resulting in poorly adapted youngsters who grow into poorly civilized adults. This is true even in comparison to children in families where the parents admittedly don't get along and even in cases where domestic violence occurs. IOW it's always better for the children to have two parents who live together as a couple. You'll also find that there's been a huge rise in FEMALE instigated divorce, not for some adultery or similar reason but simply because the female thinks she can get on better without the male. That's SHE can get on better, not that the kids will be better off nor that BOTH she and the male will be better off.

Remove the ability of the female to walk away by removing her self-support and you'll remove this problem.

Teenage unwed mothers present another variant. Under the previous welfare system the state was effectively the father in so far as money was concerned. IOW the female could support herself thanks to the welfare system. Now that that crutch has been removed (to some extent) the teenage mother rate has plummeted. Because the low skill and probably intelligence level of the group, they can't find a sufficiently well paying job so they have to find a male, not only to impregnate them, but also to support them. (This is an example of a move, you would probably say, backwards, but I would contend that it's in the right direction.)

In the other post, I dealt with the question of the low class male who can't currently find a mate. Does he not have any rights? Or is he just one of your "lugs"? Of course lots of the females who would be the natural mates of these guys find themselves at 40 getting a cat and wondering what went wrong so even for them, the system doesn't work well. IOW both genders have lost here, due to your "giving it away".

As to me personally, and probably you personally, and taking to account that there's no alternate universe in which to test this, my guess is that most male's incomes would be considerably higher but for the presence of the females (large numbers thereof) in the work force.

Of course much of the problem arises because the system is bastardized to pretend equality where none exists. Even though lots of jobs don't require the male's high upper body strength, there still exist many that do and in those we try to pretend otherwise. Garbage collector, fireman, cop, etc all fall into this category. For cops it's even worse. Pity the poor male cop who not only has to do his own job but has to protect his (often) female partner.

In factories where the pin-up on the wall used to be de rigueur, now they have to be removed so that we don't offend the female's sensibility. Equality demands that they conform to the job just the same as any new worker in the past, but no. Let's pretend. On the opposite side, who do you think gets noticed: the cute new worker with the tight sweater and the big boobs, or the pimply new male? Somehow we've worked into a situation where the female is allowed to use her sexual attributes to get ahead but the male, previously protected from such unfair competition, is up the proverbial creek.

Let's try the military. Personally I want a military that's like a savage dog we keep half-starved and chained up in the backyard. When we decide someone needs dealing with (say Saddam), we take off the chain, point him in the right direction and say "Sic him". Think that's likely with a female military? Or a feminized military? Let's hope we don't have to fight any real wars in the near future. Apparently there's a rule that pregnant female military won't be sent to an area of conflict so what happened when the gulf war broke out? A huge rise in pregnancies in the armed forces, that's what. I'm sure there were plenty of males who didn't want to go either but this option wasn't available for them, now was it? Equality, pshaw.

Why do you think "males trolling for tail" "treat (most) women like s---."? This seems to be your problem in the way you view males or perhaps it's some prior experience that has warped your sense in this regard? In my view it's quite the opposite: it's the female who treats the male as s---. Just take the trivial example of dating. Haven't you ever been on a date where the girl is happy to suck up your money but when the time comes for a little nookie (or even settling for some touching/kissing/petting) she suddenly discovers a necessity to be home or announces a heretofore undisclosed b/f who just happens to be out of town but on whom she's not going to cheat. Every woman is entitled to decide not to go out with you but if she does there's a certain assumption: she's at least slightly interested in some sexual contact. Maybe not going all the way, or maybe not going anywhere if the date turns out really badly, but failing those things, you expect something. And before you (or Ms Mullatto) jumps on the "This is akin to prostitution" idea, this sort of thing involves you in the waste of lots of time too. To my mind that's the female treating the male like s---.

I would also contend that the male has been so beaten down by dating codes, date rape (thank god I don't have to go through this personally), and strident feminist types that Mr. Average wouldn't dare to treat the girl like s---.

Misogyny, eh? How about chauvinist? Ya' know eventually these words are defined down so many times that they lose all meaning. It seems it's "hatred of females" (misogyny) to want to ensure that they take their biological place in life, or to object to the balance of power being placed in their hands instead of remaining with the males, or basically to disagree with whatever the current PC notion of equality is as far as women are concerned. Water off a duck's back.
