"Sexual self-gratification on stage" ...... "A strip-tease with clothes on".

[Nye Bevan]

In a letter to J. Edgar Hoover dated May 16, 1956, for instance, a purported former member of the Army Intelligence Service states that Presley is a "definite danger to the security of the United States" because he had driven girls and boys mad. The letter says that Elvis's "actions and motions were such as to rouse the sexual passions of teenaged youth. One eye-witness described his actions as 'sexual self-gratification on stage,' – another as 'a strip-tease with clothes on.' The author further criticizes Elvis's "motions and gestures, like those of masturbation or riding a microphone," and adds that "Indications of the harm Presley did ... were two high school girls (...) whose abdomen and thigh had Presley's autograph. ... It is known by psychologists, psychiatrists and priests that teenaged girls from the age of eleven, and boys in their adolescence are easily aroused to sexual indulgence and perversion by certain types of motions and hysteria, – the type that was exhibited at the Presley show. There is also gossip of the Presley Fan Clubs that degenerate into sex orgies. ... From eye-witness reports about Presley, I would judge that he may possibly be a drug addict and a sexual pervert."

4. Yes, and its a very human thing to go through an overtly sexual stage

in the process of progressing into or through adulthood. I know I had a period when sex was a constant preoccupation, to the detriment of other things I should have been applying my energies to. Having watched kids grow up through their teens, that's just the way it works. It passes and things come back to balance at some point, leaving most people with some good memories, some racy stories of their "wild" days, and perhaps some embarrassing things we'd rather forget.
