Within our lifetime, sex education curricula other than abstinence, birth control methods other than pulling and praying, coital arrangements other than vaginal penetration of a white Christian wife by a white Christian husband, and freedom of speech including but not limited to erotic poetry might be felonies in the United States of America.
For Valentine's Day, why not send BAEP to the government offices of United States legislators who have ever voted in favor of legislation to outlaw sex and/or the free intercourse of ideas? Write it off as a charitable contribution.
Skip the candy and flowers this year if George Bush took all your money to fund illegal wars. Sex is still free.
Happy Valentine's Day, America.
