Poem by Trip
Tribute to A.E. Housman (most probably m/F):

With rue my heatd is laden,
for striped cheeks I had

For many a hard=eyed Mistress,
and many a kneeling lad.

That lad that knelt was I,
and though my knees did bled.
My soul I’d gladly give again,
If her Shrine I could again have fed.”

And Mistresses

Odd, in a way. Arizona, Florida and Texas are three of the states that still allow, and have the highest rate, of high-school paddlings. Pity that guilt prevents the state legislators from visiting a Dominatrix.

Exchange between Justice William O. Douglas and Washington Post publisher Kate Graham:

“Bill, I couldn’t beleive your dissent in “Miller.”

“Katie, personally, and not as a judge, I’m all in favor of enforcing reasonable community standards, and I don’t particularly like prurient materials with no redeeming social value. Then, again, Katie, personally, and not as a judge, I like to read “The Washington Post” with my morning coffee.”

In “Florida v. Aiuppa,” the Florida Supreme Court ruled against relatively clothed, non-overtly sexual BDSM upholding a Florida Statute which stated that,”Material, not otherwise obscene, may be deemed obscene under this section if the distribution thereof, or the offer to do so, or the possession with the intent to do so is a commercial exploitation of erotica solely for the sake of their prurient appeal.”

So, Adele, neither dress pants over plain cotton briefs (required by my prep school), nor gym shorts over a jock-strap (also required), will save me.

I’m not going to look up the citation, but to paraphrase Mr. Justice William O. Douglas in his dissent in “Miller”, “This may be so, but neither do most television programs, newspapers, or anything else that is published today have any ‘redeeming social value.’ “

N.B.:

In my state, we have a statute that states that, on beaches in state parks, genitals, substantially one-third of female breasts including nipples, and one-half of the buttocks of either sex be covered.
