Most of the REAL Sponsored Community Wants .xxx DEFEATED

I am a REAL stakeholder, with over 10 years in the Sponsored Community! IMO,
ICANN needs to determine if ICM and all of the people it's motivated to
express support for .xxx are, in fact, REAL stakeholders. IMO, ICANN needs
to make certain that ICANN decides who meets stakeholder and sponsored
community status, and not be swayed by any ICM subjective
preferences/definitions/etc of it. 

In my REAL stakeholder opinion, ICANN should permanently and totally deny
the ICM .xxx proposal. It seems to me that relatively few Adult Internet
people are in favor of it, while conversely, relatively MANY of the REAL
stakeholders support ICANN denial of the ICM proposed .xxx contract.

I understand that ICANN might possibly be feeling somewhat swayed due to
concern of an ICM lawsuit if .xxx isn't approved for ICM. IMO, ICANN might
indeed be involved in a multitude of lawsuits if .xxx ISN'T denied, and
those legal actions could be near-term, continuing, and long-term (e.g.,
if/when government "ghetto-ization" requires REAL STAKEHOLDERS to close
sites with .com and other presently recognized tlds, and instead use the ICM
.xxx tld; or, when continuing registry and other "issues/problems" come up,
etc---this could go on for years and years). 

I worry that unless ICANN totally and permanently "kills" .xxx THIS time,
ICANN will become so overburdened in resolving matters related to .xxx that
ICANN might become unable to properly accomplish its other primary
priorities and responsibilities. 

I understand that the Free Speech Coalition (FSC) has brought many IMPORTANT
issues to ICANN in the last few weeks. IMO, ICANN needs to listen to FSC and
resolve all the matters AND requests that FSC has surfaced to ICANN. Like
many other REAL stakeholders in the Sponsored Community, FSC is the overall
voice for me. ICM does not speak for me (or MANY others of the REAL
stakeholders!).
