it's raining porn!

You read it right. As I proceeded to punch the cursory keys to open my mail my eyes were accosted by couples cavorting about in very compromising positions. Looks like the pervert who used this PC before me forgot to sign out.

While I was wildly entertained for a couple of minutes I quickly regained my composure and checked my decency meter. Okay. Everything is intact.

Hey. I am not about to sit here and lie through my teeth about not having seen anything like it before. My friends and I were die-hard fans of Rosanna Roces before she became a has-been. And as she bid adieu, tasteful porn (or IS THERE such a thing) has also, mournfully, become a thing of the past. Now all that's left are saucy movies with titles such as "Buco Pandan", with no social relevance whatsoever. Just pure, hardcore, in-your-face kababuyan. Don't get me wrong. I haven't seen Buco Pandan, but my sources are VERY reliable. And while they are extremely horny creatures, they go for cinematography that leaves something to the imagination.

It's one of the proverbial 'signs of the times.' Filipinos are becoming more and more liberated. Liberated from what, you ask? Liberated from the bonds of modern day pharisees who like to dictate the rules of social acceptability or morality. Whichever applies.

I am all for liberation if it means we are going somewhere. I do hope we are. Sincerely. But the way things are in this country I can't say if we're really moving forward or just hallucinating.

Wake me up in the next century.
