Yeah. This is really good.
I am curious, though, what porn liberal means. I've heard Anthony use it to describe Amanda at Pandagon. Is it a broad category, or a specifc view toward porn?

"Porn liberal" – I'm not using it in it any specific sense. I thought it was used as a semi-pejorative synonym of "sex-positive", so I was just firing it back in their direction.
I thought of it as akin to "sexual liberal", as in the Women Against Pornography anthology from the late '80s, "The Sexual Liberals and the Attack on Feminism". (I can almost hear the tone of voice of someone verbalizing this phrase.)
I'll leave it to Anthony (Anthony K, right?) explain for himself what he means by "porn liberal".

ah. I had never caught the vibe that it was a perjorative, partial or full on. 
And yeah, can't you read minds? (kidding), I meant Anthony Kennerson. I should be better of about not using short hand.
I think one of the essays in Radically Speaking does use "sexual liberals" in a pejorative way, too. I got sidetracked from finishing that book before I had to take it back to the library. I'll have to get it out again when things slow down.
