James Dobson seemed to think that the Abercrombie and Fitch catalogue was "pornographic".

I'm certainly ashamed to speak of such that goes on in my shameful *closet*, (let alone brag about television, etc.), knowing that it seems very *appropriate* to *cover ones nakedness* (even on this EvC site).
