I mean really, I have gay friends and I know very little about their sex lives, but the IFI press releases read like a bulletin board guide to the Chicago Gay community. Actually like a small portion of the gay community, but why quibble with stereotypes.
But more importantly, they take on Maureen Ryan for her story on Leigh Anne Wilson who owns a sex toy store and runs a great blog (soon to be on the new-non-politics blog roll). For the most part, I don’t care about people’s sex life and I think I can safely say my sex life is not the talk of the town (it’s fine thanks, but married people don’t exactly cause a stir having sex with each other).
Wilson’s store to me is the best of the type because it doesn’t deal with mainstream porn that is very degrading to nearly everyone involved (not that I haven’t watched it, but hey). It does deal with adult toys and aids that are a way of spicing up one’s sex life. What’s the problem?
While I find Jack!’s problems rather funny given his connections to groups like the IFI, ultimately the problem wasn’t what was in the file, but the lying about what was in the file.
UPDATE: Leigh Anne had a good take on the whole deal on her blog
