Well, that blows my chances with any women who have read this. Of course, by now many would be so old that they'd turn a blind eye to the fact that I'm - oh, the shame - a mental masturbator.

They do say it takes one to know one.

Margaret Sanger was one of the good guys. There were way, way worse people around at that time.

Yes, Margaret Sanger was one of "the good guys" -- birth control activism, etc. -- but her hysterical (in all definitions) rant about mental masturbation is a perfect precursor to the anti-porn feminists I used to have screaming matches with on the streets of NYC in the '70s. There's a side to the feminist left that has always had a kneejerk bluenose square streak. That was challenged when women like Betty Dodson and Susie Bright emerged. Anti-porn feminists like Andrea Dworkin and Catherine MacKinnon were as much a threat to the First Amendment as Jerry Falwell.

I admit it I am a mental masturbator, call me a Thought Criminal if you will.

I wonder if the expression "use your head" had its roots in mental masturbation.
