Seriously a 50-round handgun.
I hate to sound like a cliche, but guns don't cause mass shootings, people do. This gun may make a mass shooting a bit easier for those who want to do it, but it won't cause it just by existing.
There's a "mass movement" of people who think women should not be able to vote. In a world containing billions of people who are all able to talk to one another almost instantaneously using technology, it is not hard to generate a mass movement for basically anything. That does not mean that said movements are actually capable of gaining serious traction, and it certainly doesn't mean that they have any intrinsic merit.
You have attempted to insinuate that the content of this book is pornographic. That its purpose is not educational but to cause sexual arousal or titillation. If that is the definition of "explicit material" you are using then the book does not contain explicit material. If the definition of "explicit material" is giving extremely general guidance to how to touch human bodies in a way that is pleasurable while emphasizing the importance of individual preference, comfort zones and emotional intimacy, then I will concede that the material is "explicit", but I don't think that means anything. It is also entirely age-appropriate.
You talk about "hedonism", but it's very clear in context you aren't actually referring to philosophical hedonism because I don't think you have any real counter arguments to that. What you're trying to capitalize on is a popular idea of hedonism as a position of selfishness, and in that sense you are correct. We do live in a profoundly selfish society. We live in a society where a tiny and shrinking number of people amass ever greater wealth and power and are able to live ever more extravagant lives of luxury (and sexual excess) while the rest of us are gradually reduced to figuratively or literally "servicing" them. We live in a society whose culture and media overwhelmingly reflects this fact, and which works to strip sex of any kind of intimacy in favor of reducing it to pleasure and power.
But the kind of sexual generosity which (for the most part) this book advocates doesn't really square with that idea of hedonism at all. It's not pornorgraphic and it's not self-indulgent, quite the opposite. It is written with the fundamental assumption that you value the person you are having sex with enough to consider them worth the effort.

Fuck you republican AGs.
I can absolutely, 100% assure you that buried somewhere in a drawer somewhere is a strategy for just about any kind of classic science-fiction alien first contact situation.
In reality, it probably comes to very little. Any intelligent being capable of trivially crossing interstellar distances just to visit our stupid planet may as well be a god as far as we're concerned, and you can't really plan for meeting God. You just kind of have to hope whoever you meet is nice and recognize our level of consciousness as important on some level.
Like, UFO and alien abduction stories are interesting to me, because while I don't actually believe them, there's a stark difference in the level of imagination on display. The ones where aliens melt through the walls like liquid and pull your brain out through your nose while leaving you conscious always struck me as far more credible than the ones where aliens creep around in your backyard and knock over trash cans.
Pretty much any light in the sky that moves weird can now be assumed to be attached to a drone.
Aliens aren't coming to save us from the hole we dug for ourselves.
Second that. Often not in the expectation that they'll ever get used, but because you need to plan for everything, and the best way of learning how to plan is by practicing planning, and if you get a good plan for something that way, may as well keep it.
Or just doesn't about our world, which seems more likely to me. If aliens wanted to live in our solar system, there's plenty of other real estate, seems unlikely that they'd go for the one place that has us (unless that's the appeal). I'd be worried about some rabble-rouser getting votes by promising to drive aliens off our Jupiter's Moons or something and inviting reprisals.
Most shootings a done with whatever gun happens to be available. An AR-15 is good for a mass shooting for various reasons, but it's popular in large part because there's loads of them around.Next gun to cause a probable mass shooting...

I ain't Gun Jesus - bless his most holy Famas - but that to me looks like they took a P-90's magazine and then built the smallest frame around it to legally call it a pistol. Like, that fucker is maybe two parts away from being whatever the correct classification what we gamers call sub-machine guns (MP-5, MP-7 etc). Like I almost admire the hutzpah in this but fifty rounds isn't going to be light to hold when its stretched over the strongest part of your grip. Arnie and Stallone could use these effectively as pistols, but not many others.Next gun to cause a probable mass shooting...

Also note the barrel is way higher than the trigger, which is less than ideal.
(And the set-up of the magazine means that the balance of the weapon will change as ammunition is used)
I don't care what I have counter arguments to. I'm not trying to construct a strawman, I'm trying to accurately describe the situation. People, including you, are arguing that it is good to teach the youth to find sexual pleasure. Why? Because you think pleasure is an inherent good. There aren't really counterarguments to that. There are alternatives, certainly. There are different moral perspectives. But it's not as though I can disprove your sense of morality. I'm describing the situation as it is, there is a competition of moral systems here. Acknowledgement of that is sufficient.
This is the hard hitting, deep cutting journalism us kunts deserve lol.
That sounds like a bad parody of 40k fluff, which is disturbing on all sorts of levels.
"The first time always hurts" is a very common sex myth used to pressure girls into staying quiet about a dubiously consensual first encounter, among many other related myths. Teaching everybody involved that that's not how it should work can prevent a lot of abuse.
You object to that on the grounds that "it's teaching hedonism"
They're popular because it's very close to what the average soldier uses
I.e. AR15 popularity is just identity politics.
Awesome. That's the plan
It's way better than making things forbidden because that generally drives people to want to do it. See also: Prohibition, Drugs, what's happening to Earthbind/Contract from Below prices right now, Barbara Striesand
I can understand if people feel it should be for sex ed lessons only or, with handjobs, limited to say 16. I can't understand banning it.
We're talking per day, right?
