William Buckley Interviews Hugh Hefner on Firing Line (1966) Part 2

[MrBillAMiller]

kinsey buggerd children

[o0ZporK0o]

he looks like bill nye

[bloodandbones9]

Why does Buckley come across as a smug, self-serving, arrogant, in-love-with-his-own-voice FAG? 

[bloodandbones9]

@bloodandbones9 (Licks lips over and over again himself) lol

[BalazarsBrain]

Damn Buckley is long-winded!

[Protagoras4444]

Two great characters, both very bright.

[jonesey5168]

Unrestricted Sex is Dangerous. Just look at the crowd at your local Wal-Mart.

[Hexl702]

Stupid people shouldn't have sex. But it can be done safely, smartly and without

bad consequences -- no diseases caught, no unwanted pregnancies conceived, just a whopping good time in the sack and a wickedly devilish grin on your face!

[deltapunk21]

kinsey lied

[jonesey5168]

@deltapunk21 Yeah he used sex workers and child rapists to do much of his "research"

[campbpar]

4:50 LOOK at Hugh's reaction to that long, drawn out, response. He loves it. He just imagined a booty right thurr.

[campbpar]

That interviewer looks like a sad, jealous rat that keeps licking his lips greedily.

[5f00tnothing]

Hefner looks like he's at office hours waiting for a break in the dialogue so he can excuse himself.

[greatbookie]

BTW: i've heard that Kinsey got much of his data on sexual habits from incarcerated prisoners, rather than from the general populace.

[natmanprime]

lol hilarious with his pipe and "per se"

having an intellectual discussion about man's right to WANK

LOL!!!

[phr33ky]

This is a wonderful conversation...

I've thoroughly enjoyed Hefners responses here.

[JadeTomZ]

what a boring guy this buckley was.

did it ever occur to him or his types that any sexual act agreed to by people is moral by definition?

even today the right wing seeks control by claiming immoral people who say "get your mind off my sex life you hypocrite", which they always are.

[hydrolito]

@JadeTomZ Mulitple partners is not moral if they are carrying a disease. Monogamie doesn't spread diseases from one group to the next.

[tbscotty68]

The way Buckley pronounces 'libido' at 4:38 is priceless!:-D

[jonesey5168]

@tbscotty68 "LIB-BA-DOE" LMAO

[leroyinc]

I wonder if Hefner's suggestion that he, like the traditional moral system, was trying to achieve a monogomous society was sincere or if he was simply softening his message for those times. Either way, he's obviously changed his mind about that.

[figthersdreams]

@leroyinc I agree with you. Why push for sexual liberation and encourage monogamy at the same time? It's like being against war and investing money in the military. 

[hydrolito]

@figthersdreams A strong military wards off invaders a weak military and you are likely to be conquered again and again. If your against Armed Robbery should we disarm the Police?

[MrTruthAddict]

@leroyinc He was exactly right though. The very conservative red states in the bible belt have a MUCH higher divorce rate then the liberal blue states. It's obvious that people are unable to live up to religious dictates. Liberals are more realistic about that. The most recent religious experiment, namely "abstinence only" was a massive failure. We had teens passing around diseases via anal and oral sex because they were taught that vaginal sex was wrong and condoms were not effective.

[Hexl702]

@MrTruthAddict

Exactly right ! Might as well admit that people are horny, have always been horny and always will be.

[Speegs23]

@MrTruthAddict it isn't higher, it's just statistically greater in number because more people get married in red states than so called blue ones, the only thing the information reveals is people are screwed up and unforgiving universally.Whether or not someone fails at marriage or not is not indicative of marriage so much as it is of the culture's value of it, divorce no longer has a stigma and we condone it for frivolous reasons beyond abuse and infidelity in modern times. We forsook fidelity.

[MrTruthAddict]

@leroyinc The teen pregnancy rate went through the roof.  Another prime example of conservative failure is the Bush presidency. The abortion rate increased dramatically when he was in office. During Clinton the abortion rate went way down. Reality just always seems to have a liberal bias, doesnt it.

[Speegs23]

@MrTruthAddict I'm not sure what reality you claim to live in because that is patently false, abortion numbers have declined steadily since the 1980s, they're still pathetically high but there was no spike in 2001 to 2008 that deviated above the statistics of the 1990s. I think the bias you speak of is a personal one.
