“Wisconsin Man with Sword Mistakes Porn for Rape”

 Okay, so check out this story out — it’s a real news item.  Quick summary, a guy bursts into his neighbor’s house because he though he heard a woman being assaulted.  Turns out, all the guy heard was his neighbor watching a pornographic film with the sound up way too loud.  Now, if that isn’t strange enough, the guy who did the bursting — he burst in brandishing a sword!  Do you have any clue how rare it is that a writer can effectively use the word “brandishing”? 

Wisconsin man with sword mistakes porn for rape

All I can say about the sword is, if you’ve been to Wisconsin for any length of time, then this story makes perfect sense.

But what does it say about our porn culture if our porn sounds like a woman being raped?
