Lingerie = Porn?

Nerveyoutube Nerve.com reports that a pastor and some followers in Vacaville, CA have been stationed outside a lingerie boutique with a video camera and signs reading: "Smile! You're on YouTube" and "Sex Good, Porn Bad." Apparently the pastor, Jeremy White, doesn't discourage wholesome married people from buying lingerie — just the two-timing sluts who are cheating on their spouses. Nerve quotes White:

"I'm not trying to embarrass anybody . . . If you have absolutely no question of conscience about entering this store, then by all means shop away. However, if even only one of the dozens of customers we've deterred from entering is a married person about to do something shady behind their spouse's back then - mission accomplished."

Uhhh, okay.

I, of course, think adults should be able to purchase whatever sexy accoutrements they want without being harassed, but doesn't Vacaville have a smut shop that White can picket, rather than a mainstream lingerie shop? Can you imagine some wacky pastor picketing Bertha Church in Burlington? It's just ridiculous. Or, better yet, perhaps White can keep his sermons in his church, and we'll keep our sex in our bedrooms (or kitchens, bathrooms, living rooms, cars, etc).

xoxo,

PS... When is this heat wave going to end? It's too hot to even think about sex.
