I never saw the appeal of his tawdry book. To me, **** is more wholesome than trying to peddle hedonism as an admirable lifestyle. We were taught about how demeaning his publication was in Catholic school ! Patriarchy vs patriarchy.
I think some of the moralists who complain about how demeaning pornography is to women are the same types who'd prefer a Handmaid's Tale type society. The Rick Santorums of the world, the ones who believe contraception is the worst thing that ever happened to women.
