I recently moved to CA from UT, but I continued reading the Utah newspapers via the net. And I just found out that Utah has apointed the only Porn Czar in the U.S.
At first this seemed like a pretty cool job, but now I’m not so sure. Is this the first step towards government controlled censorship?
Anyway, anybody from Utah who can make this concept a bit more clear? Anybody at all who can clear this up? I am personally new to the concept.

Hmmm – the only insight I can offer stems from the sentiment seen on a T-shirt/bumper sticker popular back when I lived in the SW. “Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow you may be in Utah.”
All you need to start an asylum is an empty room and the right kind of people.
Whew! It’s about time they put somebody in charge! I don’t know what it’s like in other states, but the porn around here positively sucks. I, for one, will be happy to see some good, quality porn, put out with the seal of approval of the Porn Czar!

xploder, I’d be happy to. We need a good porn czar around here. I’m afraid I can’t do much campaigning for you at my place of business, though…I work at mumblemumblecityhallmumblemumble.
However, I’d be happy to put up a few signs in some front yards…

OH NO!!! You don’t REALLY work where our illustrious non-mayor does do you? What a shame. You seem like such a nice person. What would be really funny is if we had some signs that said Mayor Stanley for Porn Czar…
Hmmm, I’m guessing nobody else knows what a Porn Czar is huh? It’s not a GOOD thing silly people The Porn Czar is TAKING AWAY the porn, not approving it!

Will the Porn Czar be recruiting himself Porn Princes, Porn Peons, and Porn Police?
And ever since the term “Drug Czar” was coined there have been an awful lot of Czar positions available. Why the obsession with Imperial Russia?
Well, of course that’s good! I wish we could have one man to decide what is good for us in all aspects of our lives. I mean, first, he could decide to get rid of all the nasty, harmful pictures of naked people. Then maybe he could do away with all those wicked, evil alcohol spirits. Hopefully, he’ll finish up by narrowing down our religious choices to Christian or dead heathen and make sure that coat hangers are in good supply since abortions are outlawed.
Assuming he gets a second term (are Czars elected or appointed?), he can get rid of all hand guns and start some counseling programs to get those yucky homosexuals back on the right track.
Why didn’t someone think of this “one guy decides for all” thing a long time ago?

A general question: Didn’t we used to have a Porn Czar, back in the Reagan Era? Ed Meese or someone like him? I am getting a mental picture of a man holding a huge book, a government study on porn, and he was standing in front of a statue of Justice, holding scales in her hand, and the statue had one bare breast. Can anyone remember this for me? IIRC, this book contained a picture that someone sent to Cecil, in answer to the question about whether or not pigs have corkscrew-shaped penises.

I like porn. I like the films, the magazines, the playing cards and perusing stores that sell all of those ‘toys’ that boggle the mind and make one wonder just who could use something that big and why. I like spotting strange things and wondering do people really use it for that or admiring other things and thinking heyyy baby she’d look great in that!
I don’t go in for abuse, inflicted pain, kiddy porn, or the so-called ‘snuff’ films. I prefer to watch porn with the sound off – because the bad scripts get in the way.
I love taking girlfriends to porn shops and watching them select things for me to buy them.
I really, really hate the sanctimonious small but mouthy segment of society who seems to feel that just because they have sex only in the missionary position, feel they have some form of religious superiority, some secret hang-up on sex or feel dirty because they WISH they could experience what goes on in many of those films, that they just have to prevent anyone else from enjoying porn.
Then I hate the local politicians who probably have their own secret stash of porn as well as mistresses who like to tickle their asses with a feather, go right along with this narrow minded segment and close down porn stores, topless bars and fight legalized prostitution.
Hey, I like sex. Byte me if you don’t and stay outa my business if I want to buy sexually oriented materials.

Ironically, the porn guy has to LOOK at porno in order to decide what is porn. What a job.
It’s not a new job. The US has people doing that & writing a report. Its been some time but I believe the name is: The Presidents Committee on Obscenity & Pornography. The book they wrote [our library has it, its huge, pardon the pun] & covers, every possible variation of porno there can be in the US. They have a picture version but our library doesn’t have that ONE.

Has anyone seen Orgazmo? It’s about some Mormon Utahite (Utahian, Utahese?) who gets sucked (pun intended) into making porn? Done by that dirty filthy South Park guy, Trey Parker(?). Pretty funny.
You can call me the King of Futility
There’s a purpose to my actions, I just haven’t found it yet
You can call me the Crown Prince of Irony
It’s a crown I wear with dubious pride; it keeps falling down as I swim against the tide
