Send Your Mate To The Peep Shows
Obviously if you’ve not a
particularly active hunger for
sex this might not be the
advice for you. I’ve been
married many years and
every little bit helps. Luckily,
pornography is'semi-legal in
Georgia. By my definition it
takes more than a camera
and model to create erotica,
and so it is that a great deal
of ’pornography’ isn’t
pornographic; however, with
a little imagination, you can
still get your cookies.
Your quarter will buy you
one to one-and-one half
minutes and one eighth of
die full movie. It will cost
you two dollars and eight to
twelve minutes to see all
eight segments. This is
usually overkill. A fact
known by conoseurs is that
with low budget or poorly
edited flicks, one must learn
to climax before the film
ends. This method of sales
promotion is called a teaser.
The minute will start off
pretty good to arouse you.
Then it will build and build
till...the move is over. While
you are hungrily watching
and waiting for the big
moment, the house is trying
to get you to spend your last
quarter.
I have a few suggestions
in order to keep expenses
down. Use the media to set a
mood. Try
squinting your eyes and
imagining yourself on the
screen. I really got turned on
the other night when
someone special said it was
me he sez on the screen. Use
your ow n imagination to add
to and leave the reality of the
peep show booth.
Don’t wait for the movie
to cue your climax but take it
whenever it comes. And
x lastly, don’t ware yourself
out if someone is waiting for
you at home. Remember
pornography is a tool and not
an end itself. Turn your
mind on, warm up, escape
into your ow n fantasy and be
sensitive to the one you love.
You need not tell all.
One might look ob-
jectively at this modem day
version of the fertility god or
godess, as a Pagan
aphrodisiac or some sort of
union with the symbolic and
surrealistic aspects of basic
human sexuatity. Most
shops come complete with a
high earning entrepeneur,
various souvenir movies,
dildoes, books, creams and
other paraphenalia to take
home and share
with your
loved one. Operations with
more class are well lit out
front with pri v ate viewing
booths in back. I wish more
parlors would supply moist
towellettes and a receptacle
far garbage. If your new at
this game or not looking for
someone else, pass up the
quarter-nickelodian with the
HOUSTON
private room in a public-
place, as many of you know,
can be a fantastic boost to
your sex life. Go alone, go
together or give the man a
quarter and take a bath.
When he gets back ask him
to tell you all about it in
great detail He’ll thrill at
first touch and last all night.
Remember its His second
time around! CURLo
How quickly time
flies, 200 years and we
hardly even noticed it
happening. Living in
Houston, Texas in 1976 does
have its advantages over
what w'ould have been one
huge swamp a couple of
centuries back. But living in
Houston, Texas through the
4th of July weekend in 1976
had a whole lot more ad
vantages.
The word for the bar
scence around the city all
through the week-end was -
packed. The people waiting
around outside the Old
Plantation weren’t expecting
a parade, they just wanted to
get in.
But anybody w'ho spent
all weekend in the bars had
to be, not only real soused,
but rather dumb.
Getting out into the rest
of the w'orld, one found a
little bit of everything.
Theatre Under the Stars put
on a fine performance of
“1776” at the Miller Outdoor
Theatre, and if you liked
small hole in the side of the — ______________ _ _ _ _ crowds, Allen’s Landing at
wall, you may be interrupted
if you don’t .
In every case, pick the
establishment that fits you
best. Choose a subject that
will turn you on. Remember,
this can be a very private >
experience with your libido,
^oft focus shows are the
best buy in town. Why you
should send your mate to the
peep shows is like asking
why look at pornography at
all. Like 1 said, this may not
be, your bag,but if you’renot
the jealous type and can
appreciate spectator sports,
keep quarters in the cookie
jar. Watching sex in a

BOB
Dear Bob:
If you are sufficiently
stimulated to masturbation,
at least yours does not seem
to be a physical problem. It
sounds more as though you
believe that intercourse, with
either sex, is somehow
“bad” or . “wrong” or
something to feel guilt over.
I can’t suggest any quick and
easy method of overcoming
your feelings...but I will tell
you that, especially where
sexual activity is concerned,
the only “bad” things are
those which hurt others or
yourself. Sex with men
and/or women is nice,
normal, healthy and happy.
And it feels lots better than
masturbation!

Also in June, Texas Gay
Conference III went off
without a hitch. Around 150
people attended the three
day conference and little else
but praise was heard for the
entire affair. . The only
discouraging point was that
Houston’s gay population
was very poorly represented.
Come on people, we have a
reputation to uphold.
Keynote speaker, Jean
O’Leary, a delegate to the
Democratic National Con
vention from New York City,
had a few disparaging things
to say about the Democrat’s
platform. The Carter forces
won out everywhere, which
meant that anything con
troversial lost very quickly.
Carter is doing everything he
can to make sure he doesn’t
offend anybody.
In her speech, O’Leary
called for greater in
volvement by the gay
community in local and state
politics, saying that the
national scene still isn’t quite
ready for us. Texas State
Representative Craig
Washington was given the
Texas Gay Task Force’s -
Outstanding Legislator of the
Year Award - for his work to
repeal Texas’ sodomy laws.
The highlight of the
conference came with Vito
Russo’s presentation of his
collection of film clips
showing Hollywood’s
treatment of the homosexual
since the beginning. The
clips ranged from “Advise
and Concent” to “The Boys
in the Band” with even a
little Bugs Bunny in Carmen
Miranda drag thrown in for
fun.
