Long-time homosexual activist Frank Kameny’s claim to fame is successfully manipulating the American Psychiatric Association into declassifying homosexuality as a mental disorder, and today the Smithsonian honoree is now busily advocating bestiality “as long as the animal doesn’t mind.”

Kameny, 83, has had a long career advocating the removal of any restrictions on human acts long considered by sane societies as obscene, dangerous, and disordered.

However the octogenarian has a new mission to complement his current campaign to pressure the APA to ban reparative therapy for homosexuals. Kameny describes his mission as “Americanism in action” by advocating bestiality and encouraging the saturation of American culture with what he calls “more and better and harder-core pornography.”

According to Americans for Truth about Homosexuality (AFTAH), Kameny wrote an e-mail to them saying that while he was personally opposed to bestiality, he found it an otherwise “harmless” quirk, so long as it was consensual with the animal involved.

“Bestiality is not my thing,” Kameny wrote. “But it seems to be a harmless foible or idiosyncrasy of some people. So, as long as the animal doesn’t mind (and the animal rarely does), I don’t mind, and I don’t see why anyone else should.”

Americans for Truth president Peter LaBarbera said Kameny’s outrageous statement begged a number of questions.

“We have many questions for Kameny, the first being: how exactly does an animal signal his or her ‘consent’ to have sex with a human?” queried LaBarbera.

In his May 31, 2008 e-mail to AFTAH, Kameny prefaced his comments by saying “the term ‘sexual perversion’ is devoid of objective meaning” and added that the correct definition for him was “any sexual practice disapproved of by the speaker.”

“If something which someone arbitrarily defines as a ‘sexual perversion’ provides happiness for consenting adult participants, then its enjoyment is enshrined in basic Americanism,” Kameny wrote. “So: Let us have more and better enjoyment of more and better sexual perversions, by whatever definition, by more and more consenting adults. We will all be the better off thereby. And that will be Americanism in action.”

Kameny made the bold claim that the founding fathers of the United States implicitly approved of uninhibited sexual exploits or “sexual perversion” when they wrote the Declaration of Independence, because he believes it is part of the “Inalienable Right, of the ‘Pursuit of Happiness’”.

Kameny included bestiality and hardcore pornography as “Americanism in action” and said that those who wanted to suppress it were “the American Taliban, and Christianofascism in action.”

Kameny said he is the founder and president of the National Consumers Association for the Advancement and Protection of Pornography, Inc. He told Americans for Truth, “Give some thought to what Americanism and our American freedoms really mean. It is clear that you haven’t a clue.”

Kameny has been painted by some on the moral left as a “civil rights leader.” His 1965 protest signs that contributed to the removal of homosexuality from the APA’s list of mental disorders will be displayed at the National Museum of American History, and his papers will be archived at the Library of Congress. Americans for Truth, however, have protested against recognizing Kameny as a civil rights leader, observing that Kameny has advocated moral anarchy in all sexual matters, contributing further to the accelerating breakdown of modern American society, especially through the destruction of the family.

My Little Pony, My Little Pony, what will today's adventure be? Well, in Friendship is Magic: Story of the Blanks, a retro-NES experience by Donitz, Applebloom talks herself into going with Twilight Sparkle to deliver a package to the magician in the forest. But the woods are dark and scary, and you'll never know what you will find... Flowers? Friendship? Magic? Love? Diamonds? Candy? Who knows? You'll need a beautiful heart, faithful and strong, to make it to the end, but a little bit of magic should make it all complete.

Ok, so I posted an AMA in IAMA, and I got a lot of flame and downvotes. I wonder if this is a true representation of the perception of furries in popular culture... I wondered if I ever would have to explain to anybody what it is, and I feel that the pop media portrays us poorly.

So, I was just wondering, are you guys out of the proverbial furry closet? If so, how did you do it?

I for one am not. Not in real life, anyway. I have been a furry for a few years, now, and I've only actually accepted it and started feeling good about it since I have joined reddit. But I do not want to come out yet.

novelty group The Wombles for this year's event - and said it was a
mistake."
"But the furry litter-picking troupe - who had a string of hits in the
mid 1970s - have stepped up a war of words by saying they will not be
tidying up the site afterwards."
