Sophisticates?


Since when did porn fall under this heading on the magazine rack?

I would hardly think that a sophisticated person (which is how the word "sophisticate" is defined") would read Hustler.

In July 2006 Vanity Fair, Christopher Hitchens wrote an article about the history of fallatio (an oral history, in a manner of speaking). His takes is, the once frowned-upon act has now become a mainstream practice, quite at home in the average couples' bedroom routines. Maybe among the so-called sophisticates, Hustler is just as accepted.

Nice recall, Kdubs--how'd you remember what month and year it was from? didn't know you were a fan of old "nicotine fingers" as his detractors call him. althought he's usually on the wrong side, he's quite a polemicist--I'll give him that.

What can I say? His blow job article blew me away :-P

I read his book Why Orwell Matters and found him to be an incredible writer--at times, provocative, but still entertaining. I also happen to subscribe to Vanity Fair.

You are the man for remembering the name of the magazine. That may be the greatest top 10 list of all time. Letterman should be ashamed of himself.
