Sexual Freedom Group Charges RNC With Hypocrisy

One of the leading organizations advocating for sexual openness and freedom is charging the Republican National Committee with hypocrisy in the wake of revelations that a RNC staffer spent nearly $2,000 on a night at a bondage-themed nightclub.

Jeffrey Montgomery, a founding member and spokesperson for the Woodhull Freedom Foundation, who has lobbied extensively to promote the idea that sexual freedom is a human right, charged the RNC and its chairman, Michael Steele with duplicity for posturing as moral purists at the same time that they were indulging their esoteric, voyeuristic impulses.

"I think, from our standpoint, the issue isn't that he was at this club and spent all that money. If one can afford that, it is not such a big deal. It sounds like a fun club. The problem, of course, is that the RNC is hypocritical," Montgomery said. "I really doubt we would be talking about this issue if he got reimbursed for a weekend poker tournament or a Final Four basketball game... but because he happened to go to a sex club or whatever the definition is, once again the RNC finds itself in this hypocritical position of having one of their own leaders involved in a thing they would otherwise be worked up about. That's the problem here."

"There should be no big deal over this or over the fact that he did this and where he was. He may as well have just been at an art auction or antique show," Montgomery added. "The RNC should just stop moralizing about people's individual sexual lives as long as what they are doing is legal. They should deal with the problem that they have out-of-control spending numbers, not what they are spending the money on."

1. That which you repress becomes obsession.

That's why we see so many of these hypocritical repugs being caught with their pants down, as it were. All the "moral Christian" posturing in the world can't change your true inner nature. Ask anyone of an alternate orientation about that one.

2. That came up in a conversation I had with a friend a few days ago

She brought up the "moral order" in Japan, and my response was that yes, on the surface, there is a very formal society, and underneath that, a very disturbing underbelly created by the repression inherent in conformity and mass order.

An excellent book on the subject is "Yakuza Diary: Doing Time in the Japanese Underworld." Author Christopher Seymour was living in Japan on a work visa while writing the book, and he got unprecedented access to the top guys in the Yakuza.

Among the stories are the Yakuza attitude for recruting "young, fresh-faced girls" into porn (they refer to the "new talent" as "tuna"), the disturbing number of bored Japanese housewives addicted to meth (called "shab"), and the way that Japan's class society kicks kids who don't get into good schools or perform at the top of their class early to the curb, where they are recruited by the Yakuza to do things like sell meth in pachinko parlors.
