Just a quick note (wow, 3rd post today!): I stumbled upon Catalina's blog, and I think we should all help her and her daughter. One of the major points of my blog is that there is nothing wrong with BDSM, kinks, fetishes, whatever, as long as they are consensual. They might not be for everyone, of course, but why be shocked about it? And more importantly, why consider it wrong? Who's to say what's wrong and what's not? It's this sort of intolerance that causes the most harm, not the behaviours that are supposedly "bad".  Whatever happened to "Live and let live"? And to bring a child into this stupid, useless, "moral" battle? I don't know, maybe I'm the one who's not seeing clearly here, but seems to me that's a lot more evil than fun, kinky and consensual activities. Humph. _________________________ Edit: Catalina has met her deadline, hurray! But, as she says, the war is not over: "The raffle continues, as it is scheduled to end on Sunday (8/17/08) at 10pm, but from this point forward, all proceeds will be going to the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom as a contribution from the community that has stood together and won this battle.  This is our way of supporting the war that has been waged in the land of the free against personal and sexual freedom." So, there is still time to contribute, if you are so inclined.
