Baroness of the bedroom!





Have just listening with great interest and amusement to Baroness Shirley of Crosby PC Williams speaking to Jenny Murray on Radio 4. What a wise and interesting lady! Originally a Labour MP and cabinet minister and one of the "Gang of Four" rebels who founded the SDP in 1981, she's published an autobiography 'Climbing the Bookshelves' which sounds like a rollicking good read!

She talked about her appointment as an authority on porn. This involved the bedtime reading and research of hundreds of seedy porno mags with as she describes, "women with huge breasts laid out like hunks on meat in strips of underwear". Unsurprisingly, she reached the conclusion that men who regularly indulge are incapable of real relationships based on real love, commitment and understanding. She concluded that many share a common lack of respect for women and in many cases actually despise them. Unfortunately, when you look at the proliferation of online porn and no strings attached 'dating' sites, it's an easy conclusion to reach. Doesn't bode well for the longevity of relationships though, does it!
