That was pleasant and warmhearted. It's nice to have caring, open-minded people like you on Phillyblog. And I, for one, am glad that somebody here is making sure that others get their morals straight. We've let our city, and our country for that matter, fall too far into the hands of the immoral. It's time to take back our streets. For the children.

Your lack of coginative reasoning and thought shows with your immature name calling and your assumption that they are both open. The Retreat is open but can not have on premise sex, and the Pleasure Garden is open as an adult complex, again with no open sex, so the city has suceeded in thier mission. Now as to me on South St, I will and have always shopped there and every shop there has no problems taking my monies.


PS: Hopefully in time you will growup into a thinking, reasoning person that your parents would be proud of.

hmmm...so let me get this straight...
1.its about morals and decency, even though I know the managing partner, and additionally the designer, of the pleasure garden.
2.cognitive reasoning and thought involves opening a sex club on a street that caters to over 1million tourists a year, and is next to the two wealthiest communities in Philadelphia, as opposed to an area less likely to earn introspection, such as 61st and passyunk, or 2533 Salmon street in the case of The Retreat.
3.My parent's are not proud of me because of my lack of involvement in group sex, even though I was the first person in PA to achieve a perfect score in Advanced Honors classes, graduated with honors from Carnegie, won one solo and one community NEA grant, started and operate 3 successful companies....yawn, I know-my parents are really depressed about how I turned out.
Yet "SoPhillyCpl" has only two concerns about our community, as expressed through their postings...sex clubs and sex clubs...yeah, mommy and daddy love you...bad touch, bad touch...
And "yeshua", since you wish to be snide and crass without knowing the issue, please provide me with your address. I have been on a committee trying to get the halfway house on 12th and Kater relocated(the one with 6 sex offenders in it, of which 2 previous residents' status were revoked when it was found that they violated stipulations by obtaining memberships at Kama Sutra...gee, didn't hear about that on CBS did you?) Since you don't mind, we can try to get it next door to you-then you can procur plenty of partners for your group parties.
