Tomreedtoon's response was considered and substantial- more so than his first comment, which is all I would ask for. At least, it was until the final lines:
"I'm guessing you're a modern, young man for whom lines don't exist; no difference between kicking a can or a child. Good for you. I'll keep my boundaries, thank you."
Exactly the kind of rhetorical sucker punch I've come to expect. I'm no supporter of prostitution, and never claimed to be in my previous post. However, the fact that I called on tomreedtoon to explain his argument in more depth, as he routinely does with Havrilesky, somehow marks me as scum. Absurd.
