Utah – home of polygamy, persecution and…porn?
According to a recent
study about state-by-state online porn consumption by Benjamin Edelman, it turns out that the biggest McCain supporters were also the biggest Nailin’ Palin supporters, or more succinctly, that red states are much more likely to buy porn than their blue state “free love” counterparts.
According to the author, the porniest state of all is, unsurprisingly, Utah “(where 5.47 of every 1,000 broadband households subscribed to the service at issue) while the least-subscribing state is Montana (1.92 per 1000 broadband households).”
It appears that Utah denizens are indeed going blind from all the rampant internet porn consumption, as
this article from the Salt Lake City Tribune attests:
“Get a grip on yourselves, Utahns. (ed note: ha!) There's just no way this is true. I assure you, 100 percent of the residents of our chaste state have never read an adult movie or watched a dirty book in their lives. Our government, civic and religious leaders shield us from pornography, and it shows.”
Deny, deny – repress! – deny. He then goes on to make a swipe at Illinois’ savior. No, not Jerry Springer.
“Maybe Edelman is part of that vast East Coast liberal-atheist-intelligentsia conspiracy to discredit everything good about America, namely Utah, Idaho and a couple of counties in the Midwest where a majority of the people believe in a higher being not named Obama.”
Oh no he didn’t. Say what you will about our sodomizing-communist-health-care-for-all agenda, but talk sh*t about Obama and the only thing you’ll be gripping is a sharpie for people to sign your full-body cast, suckah!
It’s clear that Utah has a lot of time on their hands, what with all the hand-to-gland combat and
persecuting the gays and whatnot. Perhaps it’s time they took up a constructive hobby - Russian ballet maybe? Canasta?
