Happened to be listening to Richard Bacon on 5live last week on the subject of porn.

Unfortunately, anti-porn woman won with the usual arguments while pro-porn guy claimed that without porn, all men will become rapists.

However, during the show someone texted in and said that people who work in porn "have no dignity".

My first reaction was... what about telemarketers? A friend sold life insurance over the phone during his student days and what he told me about their hard sell techniques, I wondered how he slept at night.

and what about:

- Traffic wardens
- Battery farmers
- Power company execs
- Direct mailers
- Bailiffs
- Spin doctors
- Graphic designers - thousands of pounds just to change a font
- Controller of ITV - soaps, check. dated light entertainment, check.
- Controller of Channel 4 - Simpsons and Friends repeats, check. big brother, check.
- Dieticians - make up your mind what's good and what's bad. How about telling people to eat a balanced diet and do a bit of exercise and you'll probably be fine.
- Artists - bunch of glorified dole scroungers waiting for that arts council handout and the moment some art critic twat intellectually interprets your talents and you win the turner prize.
- Reality stars - your freakish behaviour may be fun to watch but in real life, people will cross the road to avoid you.
- Paparazzi
- The Fake Sheik
- Carol Vorderman and loan sharks
- Kerry Katona
- The person who insists on putting that little red dot at the corner of my tv rendering any recording unkeepable. I know I can press backup but I've set the timer. It took me years to accept channel idents, I WILL NOT ACCEPT THIS.
- Rogue Traders - I know most tradesmen are decent and honest but I know I'll get the dodgy one.
- Manchester United player
- Stockbrokers - acceptable face of compulsive gambling
- Head of Ealing Studios - I Want Candy and St Trinians, Alec Guinness is spinning.
- Martial Arts Instructor - you do good work but do you really need to paint flames on your sports car?
- Media Students
- Anyone in the NHS except surgeons, doctors and nurses
- Employers who pay less than minimum wage
- Anyone who earns more than ?50,000 p.a. - you've worked hard to get there but by this point, how hard you work is inversely proportional to your salary.
- Anyone at the Daily Mail
- Gareth Gates - Talentless, spiky-haired, Jordan-shagging gap-toothed twat.
- Pimps
- People who make sandwiches for service stations
- Tabloid film critics - rent-a-quote media whores.
- Manufacturers of bottled water
- Supermodels
- The FA board
- Japanese whalers
- Jamie Theakston - you dissed Lonnie Donergan at Glastonbury, you deserve to die.
- Capitalists - nothing wrong with capitalism per se but the constant obsession with maximising profits is pathetic. You know all the things from your childhood just isn't as good anymore because somewhere along the line, the quality has been compromised in order to save a few pennies.

May I add "people who make land mines".

Knowing that what you make may well blow the leg of a young child (or anyone else for that matter). How do they sleep at night.

Can I add: Bl.........Blu......Bllllllllllluuuuuuuuu.........oh never mind.

It's typical of these types of programmes. They are slanted deliberately in favour of the anti-male feminist's. It represents the height of vomit-inducing hypocrisy that the media, show business and the establishment should set themselves up and paragons of moral probity. How dare they dictate to us about morality!

Wasn't this Bacon bloke done for possession of narcotics a while ago? He cannot set himself up as a judge and jury to precede over matters of morality. Again, hypocrisy and double standards at work.

That's nothing short of a disgrace. If it been the likes of you or I we'd been thrown out on our ear never to be seen again.

Bacon then went on to disgrace himself introducing The Magic Numbers on TOTP, calling them 'a big, fat melting pot of talent.' Some members of TMN are a little on the bulky side, saw it as an insult and walked off.

To be fair, Bacon did apologise and was said be very upset by the whole event. Indeed, he was later overheard sniffling in the toilets...!wink!

btw - yes, a dreadful reactionary on Radio 5 as well.
