Right, said Fred!
With just about every romance writer I know protesting Fred Head's ridiculous statement that his opponent for the job of Texas state comptroller writes porn, it appears Fred's fighting back. Yes, someone in Dallas (stats tracker says so) googled his name, found my post, and posted this comment:
Thanks for dropping by, Fred! While I don't agree with Susan Combs' stance, the sex education bill was regarding children. The book was written for adults and had adults making love, not children. Are some kids going to read the book, any romance book, and get ideas? Sure. But better they get ideas about sex with love and sex with respect, which is exactly what's contained within those pages.
Not to mention sex where the men give the women fabulous orgasms as a matter of priority. How about instead we debate why it is that vibrators are illegal in Texas? Because I'm betting Viagra isn't. What's good for the goose...
Ok, so I'm gearing up to write my own pornographic novel ~ yay, me! I'm adding buddies thick and fast to my NaNoWriMo profile, and really, really, reaaaaally looking forward to starting on December (oops! November ~ thanks, buzzgirl) 1st. Definitely being set in Seattle with side trips to Whidbey, and I really want to call it Deception Pass, after the bridge that goes to Whidbey, except my favorite, favorite, favorite writer Earl Emerson has a book called that ~ which is where I got the idea from. But it fits so nicely into the theme. I'd sulk, except I love Earl. In fact, I'm going to reread a few of his books in the lead-up to NaNo, just to get that Seattle feeling happening.
Off to meet a Partylite consultant to stock up on my stash of candles. Enjoy your weekend!
I think everyone is missing the bigger picture, Susan Combs wrote a book with sex and then Susan Combs took a public position during debate on a sex education (ABSENCE ONLY)
bill while she served as a State Representative. The point, Susan Combs is a hypocrite.
Fred Head is clearly stating the facts.
Please debate how you can write a book of this nature and then took a public position of sex education (ABSENCE ONLY) bill. Can't have it both ways.

Wow, Anon really made the rounds last night, lol.
I already stated my response to her debate request on my blog.
