U.S. Rep. Paul Broun, R-Ga., has introduced legislation that would close a loophole in the current law that allows the sale of some sexually explicit material on military bases by lowering the threshold required to deem material "sexually explicit."

"We all read 'em," said Pfc. Paul Rubio, 31, of Bakersfield, Calif. "There are times we just read 'em for the technological parts like the new gadgets that come out. They have good stories sometimes too."
Sgt. Simon Brown, 34, of Daytona Beach, Fla., said men's magazines build morale. "It's not all about the pictures, although 80 percent of it is," he said.
Pfc. Greg Smith, 21, of Northboro, Mass., a regular Playboy reader, said soldiers should be allowed to buy nudie magazines at the exchange.
"Playboy is good entertainment while you are on the can. They have jokes and good stories," he said.
I wonder how technical he is being with 80% of it being about the pictures.

so they want to discourage homosexual behavior (oh wait, they "allow" that now) but yet they want to ban porn? you know, a safe way to release the pressure on your safety valve every so often? i predict a raise in male/male sexual behavior. you may think, "but what about the women in the military?" well, let's face it..90% of the chicks in the military look like guys anyway, and the other 10% are untouchable because guys are afraid she'll cry rape

Which leads into a good question. How do servicemen in Iraq masturbate? Aren't they always surrounded by other men? No privacy? That must suck.
Something about a bunch of guys alone together in the [desert]... seems kinda gay.
hey, they work hard, they play hard.

"Allowing the sale of pornography on military bases has harmed military men and women by: escalating the number of violent, sexual crimes; feeding a base addiction; eroding the family as the primary building block of society; and denigrating the moral standing of our troops both here and abroad," Broun says on his Web site.

That's ridiculous. And sending all our young men to fight and die over nothing is what? A boon to society and the family? I'm sure it's the pornography that has caused them to become violent and not the fact that they are in a fucking war. Denigrating the moral standing, what a joke. Who the fuck does this guy think he is?
