chastity and premarital blogging
Last night, I attended the Athenaeum Society's debate on the topic "Is Chastity a Good Idea for Singles?" with born-again Catholic Dawn Eden arguing yes, and sexy-sexytime-writer Virginia Vitzthum arguing no.
Obviously, the audience was largely on the pro-sex side, and Dawn's bravery in even showing up to debate in a basement jam-packed with opponents should be lauded. (No, really, a jam-packed basement; I don't think one could design a more intimidating space unless there were bleachers, Centurions, and lions).
The point I really want to make, though, is that it's 9am the morning after, and the Dawn has updated her blog post-debate, and Virginia hasn't -- any surprise that the chaste debater went home and started blogging at 2:18am? On the other hand, publicly debating in favor of premarital sex is probably good for one's social life.

Dawn Eden's video certainly looks like someone is riding the Bitter Bus that's making express stops in Lonelyville, huh?
Hi famous Jen. I saw you across the room and waved, not sure if you saw; I recognized you from your blog pix.
I'd love to say I haven't posted yet because I just arose from a night of shagging a hot heathen, but alas, here I am online in my chaste bathrobe. (The people I should really represent in a debate are the Very Lazy.) I'm not sure what to post about the debate, beyond I agree it was brave of Dawn. And not as scary as I expected it to be. And pretty absurd, but in a fun way.
Thanks for coming.
