Immoral Practices
"One of
the great triumphs of the nineteenth century was to limit the
connotation of the word "immoral" in such a way that, for practical
purposes, only those were immoral who drank too much or made too copious
love. Those who indulged in any or all of the other deadly sins could
look down in righteous indignation on the lascivious and the
gluttonous.... In the name of all lechers and boozers I most solemnly
protest against the invidious distinction made to our prejudice"
