Your Valentine's gift to her??...confront the "secret sin"
Edited on Thu Feb-12-04 03:52 PM by underpants


This billboard in Dallas on Feb. 2, 2004, is a campaign by Dallas-based nonprofit software company by NetAccountability, a nonprofit software company that aims to help Christians confront the 'secret sin' of pornography. The company is urging men to give their wives a special gift for Valentines -- abstinence from porn. The billboards are scheduled to be displayed on Friday, Feb. 13, 2004, the day before Valentines Day. (AP Photo/Pure Restoration.com/Brandon Cotter/ File)

8. P.S. This includes...
...devout fundamentalist Christian women.

I'm not trying to disparage women or Christians or anyone else. It's just clear to me that women like porn as much as men do.

9. What about....?
Wives who don't care? As long as it's involving consensual adults and it's not some obsessive-compulsive addictive type thing, I could care less.
It's just not a big deal to some of us. There are many other things I'd wish he'd give up, but this isn't one of them.

27. I don't care either
As long as he seems to have a proper attitude towards me and real women in general, I don't have a problem with it. I even look at it sometimes.

18. LOL I can imagine how that will go over
"Happy Valentines Day, honey. I love you."

"But, you didn't get me anything for Valentines day!"

"Sure I did. I stopped looking at porn"

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"My present to you is I stopped looking at porn"

"Go to hell."

"But... Its Valentines Day. Aren't we gonna... ?"

"Go back to your porn, you bastard"
