Loose shoes, tight pussy, and warm place to poo poo.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Butz posted:

Butz resigned his cabinet post on October 4, 1976, after a second gaffe. News outlets revealed a racist remark he made in front of entertainers Pat Boone and Sonny Bono and former White House counsel John Dean while aboard a commercial flight to California following the 1976 Republican National Convention. The October 18, 1976 issue of Time reported the comment while obscuring its vulgarity:[12]

Butz started by telling a dirty joke involving intercourse between a dog and a skunk. When the conversation turned to politics, Boone, a right-wing Republican, asked Butz why the party of Lincoln was not able to attract more blacks. The Secretary responded with a line so obscene and insulting to blacks that it forced him out of the Cabinet last week and jolted the whole Ford campaign. Butz said: "I'll tell you what the coloreds want. It's three things: first, a tight pussy; second, loose shoes; and third, a warm place to poo poo."

After some indecision, Dean used the line in Rolling Stone, attributing it to an unnamed Cabinet officer. But New Times magazine enterprisingly sleuthed out Butz's identity by checking the itineraries of all Cabinet members.

This is like that Chapelle bit about of course black people love fried chicken; EVERYBODY loves fried chicken.

I truly believe that bringing Gawker down was part of the prep for the Trump run, they would have run the Steele dossier before the election and I’m pretty sure they broke the Enquirer burning the Susan McDougal info.

Allen Ginsburg and Harry Hay were both advocates of NAMBLA as well.

There is a great book out there, waiting to be written, tying together the toxicity of oppressed gay life to ‘chickenhawks’, gay kids trying to understand themselves, and the normalization of those relationships due to centuries of closeting.

A lot of older gay men I’ve known (dad gay, so what?) had relationships with older men in their youth; that was somewhat normal and at least for them a warm introduction to the community. Remember that they could not just date other dudes in their high school, there was no Internet, and even gay-themed non-porno was obscene and couldn’t be mailed a lot of places. So all they could do was listen to gossip about ‘where the faggots were’ and go there to meet dudes that were like them.

NAMBLA got a lot of support from men that grew up finding this normal; thus Ginsberg and
other older gay men defending it, including actual non-pedophiles I actually know (although we have not discussed this since the late 90’s lol).

I really don’t know if NAMBLA started as a male homosexual group in an subculture where adolescents having sex with older men was considered a normal part of life, or if it was always just about loving children. I know it sure sold itself as the first, quite successfully.

I grew up in the 80’s, and the homophobia that was normal then was loving insane by modern standards. I can’t imagine how growing up gay in my era would have hosed up my head, and that was mild by previous standards. So that is probably another part of the defense of NAMBLA, they were on ‘our side’ when that was incredibly rare.

Goddamn this brought back a lot of old memories, like news reports of actual child porn being sold in Times Square. Or the Mad Magazine paperbacks I bought had these older pieces wherein ‘jailbait’ was a thing. You know
‘14 gets you 20’ hahaha. Or ‘Lolita’ being sexy, not the autobiography of a self-involved self-justifying piece of poo poo that can’t deal with actual women.

Goddamn a lot of poo poo has just been swept under the rug and we pretend it never happened.

ITT funny culture poo poo I just remembered.

yeah and he hated Dworkin for calling him out on it
whoa, oh no, the part I didn’t know I now know.
uh oh.

Reminds me of a great Dolan piece about Dworkin (still have never read her);

quote:

What I revere about Dworkin is that she never realized that. Dworkin is hated so intensely simply because she accepted first-wave feminism fully. She blurted naively the implications of that ideology. And that appalled and embarrassed millions of smoother women, who liked the cool, fashionable tune feminism gave their bitching but had never had any intention of letting it get in the way of their romantic career plans.

Kamala and Pete had very little chance to turn out any different than they are because they're both striver asshats. In America there is really only one path for that and it's the neoliberal one, if your a bright kid that is. If you're an idiot failchild striver you get to do the conservative grift especially if you're a minority.
ooof.

I’m old, my daughter is looking at internships for the summer. Anything vaguely leftist/dem is impossibly clogged with connected strivers or unpaid AND clogged. Anything center-right or worse is paid and not competitive. They’re even greenwashing right wing poo poo now just to get applicants. I know this won’t surprise anybody but it’s just so loving unfair.

Asimov groped or engaged in other forms of unwanted touching with countless women, often at conventions, but also privately and in the workplace. Within the science fiction community, this is common knowledge, and whenever I bring it up in a room of older fans, the response is usually a series of nods. The number of such incidents is unknown, but it can be plausibly estimated in the hundreds, and thus may match or exceed the long list of books that Asimov wrote.
