This post is kind of interesting [View all]

The previous poster posted a link to a prostitute (not prostitution) advocacy site.

The subject line reads, "Oh look, a man who wants to legalize prostitution."

So the obvious implication is that if you are a man, and you post a link to something that is pro-prostitute, it's not hard to guess your intention.

Perhaps I'm wrong, but it seems to me that implying a man is or wants to solicit prostitutes is pretty much the moral equivalent of calling a woman a whore. The fact that it has absolutely no basis seems to make it particularly egregious.
