The last time I watched Salo, there was definitely sex...among other things.

adidasss may be referring to Vonnegut's nasty and cruel side,
but, damn, he really had some major hardships in his life.

WHAT?? You shut your dirty mouth!! How dare you speak ill of dead people?!?

But seriously, he had a nasty and cruel side? Damn.

I was referring to his depiction of little people in Cat's cradle which was downright offensive, his rather sexist treatment of women pre-Breakfast of champions, the khmm, liberal use of the n-word in BoC (which I would argue had a point but would definitely NOT pass muster today). Etc.

Personally, I'd rather sleep with a woman.
Any woman.
Anyone...?

Jesus Christ in a Camaro running drugs across the Mexican border while high himself! All writing is a product of its time; you can't beat people up for writing what was acceptable (whether right or wrong) at the time but isn't now. What about Dickens? Did he treat Jews badly? Should we dig up his corpse and set it on fire? Ban his books? Uncle Tom's Cabin? Gone with the Wind? Give me a break. You've really extended your reach now, haven't you? How about that Bible huh? What a rag! Woman is subservient to man? Terrible.
