Freedom of homosexual expression

At Princeton, it’s okay to be “out” — as long as you’re not gay about it. Boys should only hold hands in the final stretch of their 3:30 a.m. walk home from the Street, and same-sex dancing should only occur among straight girls. After all, gays are meant to be “tolerated,” not seen or heard.

Feminism, porn and dignity

Like any good corporation, Pink Visual is divided into wholesale and retail. The products on offer do not appear to be substantially different. The decor in retail is more overtly Sapphic: not romantic lesbianism in the spirit of the Greeks, but a straightforward backdrop of naked girls licking each other and arching their backs. And Vivas wonders why men are among her best customers?

Parting shots

If we do successfully fight the fact that it’s easier to whine than to act, then we’ll have something to be proud of. If there’s a moral here, it’s that Princeton is ours, and we forget this at our peril.

No time for a Tea Party

I have yet to see any Tea Party presence or even to hear any students express their support for the movement. The lack of a visible Princeton Tea Party, and the scarcity of protesting in general, reflects the busy nature of Princeton culture.

An irrelevant debate

In a world in which one in five video rentals are pornographic and in which more than one in 10 Internet visits are to porn sites, the question of feminist porn seems marginal, at best.

Why I did it

"Why’d you do it?” “Why rock the boat?” “And if you were going to do it, why now, more than a year later?” “And why did you let them put your name on it?”

SCORE, eBay style

I was getting increasingly freaked out as my computer clock clicked over to 7:28. Should I click the enroll button two seconds early at 7:29:58 or wait until it was officially 7:30? What if I didn’t click fast enough to get into the lab I wanted and had to cancel and start the registration for the class all over again?
