RIP Bill Buckley

I say it is a loss to the intellect, reason and civility of a different world.

Parents Make Sex Film With Their Little Girls

Yeah, a sensational slug but not altogether unfair for this NYT story–

So far it has been seen only at film festivals and at schools of public health, including those at Harvard and Johns Hopkins. But the film will soon be available here.

In it, two incredibly sweet and precocious sisters — Vineeta and Sevilla Hennessey, ages 6 and 4 — accompany their parents, the filmmakers, to the 2006 International AIDS Conference in Toronto. They interview top AIDS experts, gay activists, condom distributors, a sex toy saleswoman, a cross-dresser playing Queen Elizabeth II and an Indian transgender hijra in a sari.

. . . one childish question leads to the next. . .
