Loves the razor

I enjoyed your article on shaving [Taking it All Off, March 2000]. I shave all my body but my head! Love having a man doing it and making it last for a couple of hours! Love the feel of smooth cock, balls and ass. Put on silk, leather and nylon cloths after becoming smooth, the feel is so great. Also love to make and have love with another man who is shaved smooth, that is so hot!

Who's old enough to play?

I have loved your mag for a long time. It gets better and better. Could you tell me the age of consent in Arizona?

It would be interesting to know the age of consent in all 50 states. It might help some people stay out of trouble. Maybe you can do a list for us.

an Internet reader

Punching "age-of-consent" and "Arizona" into Google and one is led to information suggesting that the legal age in the Grand Canyon state is 18-- but take care with such data since the web can be a fount of misinformation. The Western US states tend be a bloc, setting the age of consent at a ridiculous 18.

Age of consent laws are notoriously hard to parse. Not all ages of consent are 'hard'-- that is, many have exceptions (depending on the precise ages of the persons having sex), and there are other statutes ('corrupting the morals of a minor,' for instance) that can be used to trip up partners in youthful sex. More than just looking at the law, you have to look at enforcement patterns in a given place.

Manufacturing fear

Having read your editorial Perverted Science [February 2002], it seems that the same mentality that committed crimes against those with minority, but natural, sexual appetites through the use of religion, are now attempting to use science in the same manner.

It is imperative that society understand, that there is no damage in any sexual experience that is without force, fear, violence, or disease. The pretension that mental problems of any kind, are caused by any sexual experience that does not include force violence, fear or disease is an absurd and criminal lie.

What should be understood is that the harm presented as a result of so-called sexual abuse are really the results of that criminal lie. "Experts" take the natural background fears we all have-- the knowledge of our coming death, the possible tragedies within our life, and the fear of the unknown that permeates our lives-- and say that the sexual experience caused them.

This terrible destructive lie is made even worse by imposing fear upon the so-called victim. The so-called experts, who are more biased then sin itself, proceed to try to convince the so-called victim that an enjoyable experience has done something terrible to him. Believing the so-called experts, the conflict within him begins. He begins trying to figure out how such an enjoyable experience could damage him. He searches for something unpleasant in the experience, but cannot find it. He wonders if every enjoyable experience damages him. He might wonder why the very same sexual experiences do not damage those over a certain age: is the experience itself damaging, or is it the age that makes the experience damaging? He knows that in every other experience-- pleasant or unpleasant, damaging or not damaging-- age has nothing to do with it.

Any such "victim" becomes terribly confused, but dares not question the authorities. He is asked to abandon logic, his own feelings, his own desires, his own being. He has been manipulated to blame all his fears and anxieties on his so-called sexual abuse. The imposing of such terrifying fear upon him is the real abuse.
