I'm with Rev. Logic. That type of "work" has no place in civilized society.

In any case, we can assume that a certain percentage of women in that industry are White,  Even if that percentage is small, the government did the right thing for those women.

David Lane said that there's a fine line between nude art and pornography. Humans have appreciated the female form in art for thousands of years. So displays of nudity aren't going to go away anytime soon, but I appreciate the Icelandic government trying to protect women who are in the sex industry and don't want to be.

As it turns out, Nikola Tesla was a eugenicist back in the 40's PC, just before World War II.  He believed that by the year 2100, eugenics would be universally established, and would have weeded out the majority of undesirables from the population.

The year 2100 will see eugenics universally established. In past ages, the law governing the survival of the fittest roughly weeded out the less desirable strains. Then man's new sense of pity began to interfere with the ruthless workings of nature. As a result, we continue to keep alive and to breed the unfit. The only method compatible with our notions of civilization and the race is to prevent the breeding of the unfit by sterilization and the deliberate guidance of the mating instinct. Several European countries and a number of states of the American Union sterilize the criminal and the insane. This is not sufficient. The trend of opinion among eugenists is that we must make marriage more difficult. Certainly no one who is not a desirable parent should be permitted to produce progeny. A century from now it will no more occur to a normal person to mate with a person eugenically unfit than to marry a habitual criminal.

We can still achieve that goal, and future generations will thanks us for it.

This is a great article about how language shapes how you view the world. We all know that part of what makes each culture unique is their language, but did you know that the language you grow up speaking can make you see a different world from those who speak different language?

So a person who natively speaks Latin, for example, would see the world in a different way than someone who speaks Hebrew simply because their languages are so diffferent. They would still sense the same things- the colors, sounds, and textures are the same- but they would perceive and relate to those things differently.
