Hehe. Yeah. :) I had to take a test the beginning of my American Government semester class in 12th grade, and it matched your ideology to the political party that was closest to you. I got Libertarian, which according to my friend's dad, means I'm socially liberal, and fiscally conservative. Which is about right. I am definitely socially liberal--think abortion should be allowed, have very strong beliefs about letting gays marry, etc--and I think the government should let us keep our own damn money. :p
I just looked up the definition of "pornography" in the Oxford English Dictionary, because I was talking in chat about erotica vs. pornography, and it occurred to me that one of these days, I'm going to have to support my "Erotica is not pornography" claim. According to the OED, pornography originally referred to a description of the life, manners, etc of prostitutes and their patrons.
This means that technically, the book that I read in my anthro class (Travesti: Sex, Gender, and Culture Among Brazilian Transgendered Prostitutes) is pornography.
ROFL! I love it!
"Mom, my anthropology professor assigned us pornography to read!"
*helpless with laughter*
