Secondary School Principals’ Association president Tom Parsons said educators were frustrated by depictions of extreme sex and violence on television and in other media. “This is a real ticking timebomb.” Pornography had “no relation” to normal sexual behaviour, Mr Parsons said.

THE headmaster of a private school is considering inviting a former porn star to teach sex education to his students.
Mark Slater, from the 28,000 pound – a year The Leys School in Cambridge, said that he would not rule out inviting someone with experience of the [sex] industry to talk to pupils about the perils.
Referring to the “horrifying statistics” which suggest that more and more youngsters are gaining access to hardcore pornography, he said that pupils needed to be made aware of the unrealistic nature of the online material.
He said it was vital that children were made aware of the differences between porn and genuine relationships.
Slater, who is due to retire at the end of this year, said he accepted that his pupils were watching porn.
Inviting in someone with direct experience of the [sex] industry would help to educate them he said.
“I wouldn’t rule it out, simply because of what they have done in their life, if I felt that person was going to put across good values and be a good influence,” he said.
“There are young people who have got easy access to all sorts of material which wasn’t accessible years ago.
“And I think what we have got to do is empower them with good judgment and make them understand that this kind of thing can be addictive, it can be damaging and a certain amount of willpower is necessary.”
He added: “As a school we see pastoral care as possibly the most important job we do.
“And under the heading pastoral care comes the need to prepare people for life, for their future, and an important part of that is their relationships.”
His comments coincide with calls from Julian Huppert, the Lib Dem MP for Cambridge for youngsters to be taught about relationships.
He said schools concentrated too much on the “mechanics and biology of sex”.

Steve Crow is back on the prowl in Palmerston North and Whanganui. When in Whanganui, he got egged, and even seems to admit that it is legal for Joe Public to express himself using such projectiles!
“We had one idiot throw some eggs at me,” Crow told reporters afterwards. “He did a good job, that’s alright. Freedom of expression, he can do that.”

“Even soft-core pornography portrays women as sex objects who exist only to give sexual satisfaction to men. They are ‘pets’ or ‘playmates’ valued only from the neck down. Many porn addicts now admit they find it hard not to view women as chunks of meat because of viewing pornography.” (Shelley Lubben (a.k.a. “Roxy”), former porn actress)
Given that large numbers of men are addicted to porn, I wonder how female readers here feel about being viewed as ‘meat’? How does this affect relationships? How does a ‘meat’ addict view you in a relationship? What happens when you get the wrinklies and lose that porn-star figure you once had?
Potentially dangerous gaps in New Zealand’s company registration system have been revealed as an investigation continues by the Society into the operations of a number of NZ registered companies owned by a US-registered corporation, as well as the activities of its Principal and registered agent who directs the NZ companies. A NZ-based co-director of one of his other companies is also under investigation.
After over 15 years being paid big bucks by the tax-payer to watch hardcore adult porn, the perversions of child sex offenders and rapists, and gratuitous violence, Chief Censor Bill Hastings and his deputy Nicola McCully – want a further 3 years in the “dirty job” watching more objectionable content, 80% of which is hardcore adult porn. What do these two censors have in common besides massive salaries ? [Read more…]
