Never found him that funny but felt sorry for him being hounded out of his job for 'indecent exposure' at an adult cinema. Where can you get your dick out if not a porno theatre?

Reubens claimed the material seized was "kitschy" stuff from old magazines in his "art collection" - can't speak to the truth of his claims, but the charge was reduced to a misdemeanor obscenity charge and he was fined $100.


Reubens declined to speak to The Advocate, citing his busy schedule, but in interviews with Dateline NBC and Entertainment Weekly he stressed that he possessed no child pornography, and he revealed the kind of images that had offended the Los Angeles Police Department: old physique photographs such as those on the cover of this magazine and featured in writer-director Thorn Fitzgerald's 1999 film Beefcake. "There were nude pictures," the actor told EW. "It's a collection of vintage photography, and a lot of it is erotic or sexual. But I don't view my collection as dirty in any way. I view it as art.... They seized magazines that were 40, 50, 60 years old--stuff that was legally produced and legal to possess at the time."
