Before I could become Vice President, he told me, America would have its first female, Jewish, Hispanic, gay, Muslim and ex-convict Vice Presidents. Still, Vice President of France doesn't sound...
...While I was trying to defend myself, apparently Mr. Pitt checked out my website. "Your official website says you're the guy who loves porn and hates America," he said.

Roche, by contrast, says "I get a lot out of good porn," and calls traditional feminism "joyless." Somewhere in the middle stands Ariadne von Schirach, author of the book Der Tanz um die Lust (The Dance Around Lust), who decries "the pornographization of society" and wants to free female sexuality from the pressures of a world where easily consumable porn is supplanting eroticism.
