19. So straight porn is the problem, my hands are clean

I don't watch porn with females in it.

Or as some in the anti-porn camp would call it "erotica". It doesn't contain violence against women, therefore it cannot be called pornography, which is of course idiotic.

There can, by their definition, never be such a thing as all-male pornography.
