Guest Posted June 3, 2002 It seems that they found a collection of porn belonging to Abraham Lincoln while renovating the White House: Abe Lincoln's Private Porn Collection Found </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">A treasure trove of 19th century pornography found during renovations at the White House belonged to our revered 16th president, Abraham Lincoln, stunned historians report. "Don't let the dignified beard and stove-pipe hat fool you -- the only thing Honest Abe wanted to emancipate was women from their clothing," joked historian John Castelli, who headed up a team of 11 Lincoln experts charg-ed with authenticating the racy find. "Kidding aside, this discovery quite clearly has a serious side, too. "The photographs strongly suggest that Lincoln, a champion of human rights, viewed women as second-class citizens and mere sex objects." Â Uncovered in a hidden recess behind the east wall of the Lincoln bedroom were three hand-bound albums containing what one Washington pundit called "four score and seven" pictures of naked or scantily clad women. A photo of Lincoln's wife, Mary Todd Lincoln, graced one centerfold, her private parts barely covered by a dainty silk handkerchief. "The fact that Lincoln collected sexy photographs isn't all that shocking when you consider that many accomplished men of his day were sexually repressed," said Castelli. "Like anyone else, they searched for a 'release.'" Interestingly, the Lincoln collection is said to include a crude-but-working "flip-book precursor" to modern X-rated movies. <span id='postcolor'> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wobble 1 Posted June 3, 2002 yes, but young boys were more popular. Watch "The History of Sex" on the history channel, learn all kinds of odd things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tex -USMC- 0 Posted June 3, 2002 yeah, what it says is he had pictures of women who were naked, including one of his wife. So basically he had the 19th century version of Playboy. Somehow I fail to see why that makes him view women as nothing more than sex toys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
