And the pony is... Not the speaker. It's a member of the "Free Speech Society," a graduate student, who introduces the speaker. Evidently the speaker was schooled at Princess University, studied among some tribe in Zebrica, did a post graduate study in Aquelia, was a professor in Griffonia during the brief Republican period, and was a tenured professor at Hayward for over a decade. He was evidently dismissed by a new ordnance in the Manehattan district only a couple months ago under the then-secretary of education there.
The speaker spends a while to talk about the importance of freedom of speech and of the autonomy of universities, and especially, speaks of the importance of acting to maintain the autonomy of the university system in Baltimare. He speaks of a need to organize to prevent similar dismissals in Baltimare. He states further that these dismissals are only the "thin edge of the wedge" of reactionary movements, as the experience in Maanehattan has shown. He gets applause at a few of these suggestions. He ends his introduction, and leaves the podium.

She whispers back
"Yeah, it is."
And then an older stallion, orange brown in coat, with glasses, and with a curly mane and facial hair that has gone grey and white with age, comes to the podium, and starts to speak. The first statement is a thank you to the Free Speech Society for inviting him there, and a snide remark about being removed from Manehattan. He says he wonders why ponies think what he says is so dangerous, but remarks, "I tell only the facts, and evidently, the facts are dangerous to those who hold power."
He starts off the lecture proper not with a history of sexuality per se, but rather with a recent history of what others have said. Angels, famously, a few decades ago proposed the finding that the earliest pony tribes lived as single herd units where all sexual partners, children, and property were held in common, with foals being exchanged between herds to avoid incest. Only later in the development of civilization did private property - and with it, monogamous marriage - come into being. He then speaks of the findings of Professor Carrot Mead in her findings in living among the tribes of what is now the Feathesian Indies, on Salmon Island. She claims that, in the areas untouched by the Griffenhiem religion, that young zebra mares would promiscuously engage in intercourse with nearly the entire village in their younger years, and only later be married off. This, she claimed, had no real negative effects, and the mares are reported to have happy relationships there after. Evidently, chiefs are reported to have preferred mares who have had as many partners as possible. The professor gives isolated and anecdotal reports of similar patterns occurring in LLamabet, but also in old Equestrian cultures, claiming adultery has been more common than has been realized.

Dark Star smirks slightly at this part then immediately stops.
As he begins speaking About the "History" Dark Star trys not to give away the fact he is Disgusted.

The speaker then sums up the previous section by stating that Hippological research suggests that the "Natural" state of most creatures is Polyamory and communal raising of children. Or at least, that restrictions to female sexuality are not natural. He claims rather that sexual morality - monogamous marriage and prohibitions on adultery - are rather something that arises later in the stages of civilizational development, generally alongside private property (also held to not be "natural" in the strictes meaning) and inequality. He notes that basically every culture on the planet is at a stage of development past the pure "natural" and earliest stages, with even those few exceptions mentioned earlier being hard to find in an unaltered state.
The professor then moves on to talk about how Monogamy came to be. He brings up the ideas of Frau, who states that civilization is the product of reason, which then places limits on the passions to try to funnel them into more creative ventures, with no passion stronger than sexuality. The professor talks about an association of sexuality with the primitive state, and the fear that older generations had of it, but also their fascination. He brings up examples from literature, and also has a projector showing images of art that supposedly are representative of the fear of sexuality. He links this to a project to assert the mind and the spirit over matter. He also associates it with hierarchy in government, inequality in society, and a reduction of female rights.

He goes on to talk about some of the negative consequences of the repressive, old sexuality, claiming they cause nervous disorders. He gives the example of a mare who evidently caused harm to herself in fear, or of extreme efforts ponies in the past have gone to to avoid masturbation.
He takes a detour to talk about sexual deviance, which he claims are caused by environmental disturbances in youth. He talks about homosexuality, and claims that in old literature it was associated with a love of masculine virtues, and love of comrades in battle. Supposedly it was associated with soldiers on campaign. He also claims that evidence shows that foals are much more sexual than appreciated, and that the earliest sexual growth occurs before puberty. Then he gets back into hippology, stating that pederasty, the practice of pairing children (past the age of puberty, but still children) with much older ponies of the same sex has been recorded in many societies - most clearly in Nimbusia - with no ill effect on development.
He claims that rape and pedophilia is in no small part the result of sexual repression created by the old morality. He takes a moment to allude to a particularly infamous incident of pedophilia uncovered just in the last week right here in Baltimare, and claims that this too, may be the unfortunate consequence of sexual repression.
He ends talking about what society should do. He praises Singer's work in showing the utility of contraceptives like condoms, and claims it has reduced the number of unwanted pregnancies, and of children born into poverty. He applauds Baltimare for eliminating the law against sodomy. He claims that sexuality outside of marriage, and especially mares having multiple partners, should be more tolerated by society. He claims that divorce laws need reform in every jurisdiction. Finally, he talks about the elimination of any laws against miscegenation, citing examples in zebrica showing this too, to be completely safe and natural.

Nadir occasionally looks over to Dark Star, and of course Star Cut and his girlfriend can see Dark Star, so there is little room for him to react negatively.
The speech included other items, like a reference to rumors that the Princesses had numerous male partners even at the same time, mostly from among their palace guards, and an insinuation that the prohibition against adultery is far from universal in civilized cultures, citing alleged examples to the contrary in Llamabet and Nimbusia where a mare having sex with partners other than a her husband was not only tolerated but desired by the male partner. He also mentions examples of interspecies relationships, most recently citing the behavior of New Mareland garrison troops in occupied griffin countries. Incidently, this is the one and only reference to the Blackhooves in the speech.
He ends the speech coming full circle, talking not about sexuality and its history or future, but rather about his own future as a professor. He expresses concern that he will be chased out of any university in East Equestria, and may have to leave Equestria altogether. He implores the audience to stand up and block any attempt to eliminate university autonomy. The crowd gives a standing ovation.

Hello
It's not the true end of the speech, but rather, it opens to questions and answers.
A pony in the crowd asks about Changelings. Totem, while not having much to say about Changeling behavior, does claim that they have thrived in Equestrian society in large part because repression gives Changelings a niche to fill; they allow a sort of outlet of sexual desire which they can then exploit.
A diamond dog asks about, well, diamond dogs. The professor admits ignorance of the history of diamond dogs, but claims that what he does know largely backs up his claims about ponies. In particular, there are reports that Diamond Dogs would raise their young communally, which he believes implied they had group marriage. He also mentions reports of sexual encounters between diamond dogs and ponies in the earliest days of exploration.

"Yes" He answers Dark Star
"Huh?" When Dark Star asks his question, there's almost a moment of confusion. But after a few seconds, a smile comes across his face.
"Oh, yes. Princess Celestia - these rumors circulate mostly around Princess Celestia - is widely known to have courted a duke before ascending the throne of the Equestrian confederation. That particular relationship is unlikely to have gone anywhere, but it is still something to think about-"
By and large, the evidence consists in Celestia being particular about some of her staff, specially reassigning a royal farrier in one instance, a master of the barracks in another, and especially throne room guards. Second, in several instances of especially foreign dignitaries and nobility being taken on what seem to be personal frolics like dates, or disappearing into her bedchambers for an hour or so. And thirdly, multiple ponies over the centuries have publicly claimed to have been lovers of Princess Celestia. The Professor has to note that all of the evidence is circumstantial and often has other explanations. One of the stallions who claims to have been Celestia's confident and lover was found to have never been even within a hundred miles of her, and in one especially bizarre incident, an attendant burst into a room occupied by Celestia and one of her throne room guards to find that Celestia was reading a bedtime story to the guard. Still, Celestia was known to send love letters in her first few years of being a princess to certain princes of the pony tribes. There are a few years where Celestia was reclusive enough that just may have been hiding a pregancy, and who knows what she's done in possible trips through mirror realms...
The evidence for Luna is actually more straightforward, as unlike Celestia, she has been spotted unequivocally love sick for individuals both before banishment and after, though the stallions in question deny having actually copulated with her.
Twilight, believed to have had a crush on a crystal guard, is admittedly the most likely to still be a virgin.
Cadence is actually married and has a child, and has a high likelihood of not being a virgin at the time of marriage. She is rumored to have had affairs, though these rumors don't seem to have much substance to them.

The presenter says that he wants to take time for members of the Hippology department at Jim Haykins to be able to ask questions.
The first question comes from an older mare who asks where the greatest progress is to be made in society. He replies that great progress has been made in legalizing contraceptives in almost every Equestrian jurisdiction. What remains to be done, he claims, is a general attitude shift in the population. In terms of legal changes, he claims that the illegality of abortion in some Equestrian jurisdictions, as well as restrictions on divorce, is where the greatest progress can be made.
A yellow mare in her late 20s, who the presenter states is an alum of the Hippology graduate program of the university, and is a professor in another city.
She tries to argue with the claim that there would be fewer instances of rape, pedophilia, or Changeling succubusism in a more liberalized moral system; she claims rather that moral license would embolden and provide cover to rapists, pedophiles, and Changelings (And yes, she lumps Changelings in the same category as pedophiles), and would create conditions for them to thrive. Totem retorts that such undesirable behaviors result when desires that need expression are not allowed to be satisfied in a controlled manner. The female professor does not agree, but moves on to a different question.
She contests the history presented in the first portion of the lecture. She claims to be familiar with the rites and rituals of the ponies indigenous (pre-Hearthswarming) to the southern portions of the continent. She claims that their indigenous rituals allow for polygyny among nobles including concubines and additional wives, as well as more lax divorce, but otherwise are fairly similar to modern Equestrian standards. He responds that the tribes in question are at an "advanced civilizational stage" and responds that something more like what is described elsewhere occurs in the ancillary Neighua tribes. She retorts that to the best of her knowledge they do not. He brings up a specific example from another cultural group further away, where a culture is said to practice female promiscuity prior to settling down in marriage just the same as in the Salmon islands example. She has to admit the culture in question is out of her field of specialized knowledge, but she does not trust a few anecdotal remarks from outside observers who had reason to lie about what they saw. Like the previous argument, this ends with both sides making claims that can't really be finally verified.
She finally claims a general logical problem with the pattern of sexuality mentioned before, that is, early age female promiscuity, by claiming that in a society where almost the entire population is living at the edge of subsistence, an out of wedlock birth would be certainly fatal to any child. He claims that onanism, timing cycles, and infanticide would resolve the issue, but that in any case they should agree to disagree as they are low on time. The female professor seems to back down for a moment, but then stands back up before being silenced by the presenter.
A graduate student asks a question about some esoteric practice in Griffonia, which Totem has to admit he doesn't know much about. The graduate student takes this opportunity to explain it to the audience. Something about a cup and symbolism, or something.
At this point, the presenter comes back, and says that they are out of time. There is applause from the audience.

She is a yellow earth pony with a light red mane tied with a single band. As Dark Star watches her sit down, Nadir leans over and whispers to Dark Star
"Stick. In. The mud."
It's a story from Unicorn society around the time of Gusty the Great, though the same motifs reappear in modern Equestrian history. The cup - actually a chalice - is said to be symbolic of female sexuality, and by extension, femininity in general.

Mars Loaf makes her own comments:
"It really pisses me off that they dismissed him in Manehattan. They might try that here."
The stallion speaks

He turns his attention to Dark Star

Mars Loaf asks,
“Where are we going? Back to your place?”
The stallion responds to her
“Sure, babe.”
Mars Loaf calls over to Nadir:
“Nadi! Come on.”

The older stallion, "June," has a dark blue mane and white coat, with his coat the same color as Mars Loaf. He takes out and lights an unfiltered cigarrette.

He looks down at Dark Star's hoof, and after some hesitation, extends a hoof to shake. His grip is rather limp, and does not las long.

Sea Breeze listens to Dark Star as he speaks, nods, and leans forward
"Dark Star... You must understand..." He breaths out in something like a sigh, and looks back up to him.
"Our base of support, a majority of our supporters, really, all come from one Equestrian colony. And of that group, half of the male population between 15 and 65 is carrying arms. Half the population, who are not in the factories making goods to buy, or in the fields growing food. Not paying taxes. It must be this way, because with the crisis with Wingbardy, we are scarcely defending ourselves from powerful kingdoms who wish to see us crushed under our heels. We must wage war to the death with foreign powers, while garrisoning an empire that thankfully gives us raw materials, but costs precious money and ponypower.
Dark Star, when we came into Baltimare, we attempted to implement the Blackhooves political program. Trade only within the Customs Union, Nationalization of Unions, giving the State ownership of a portion of all large industries, a thorough purge of corruption and organized, bringing education under proper State oversight, the elimination of non-pony immigration... An uprising resulted. Garrisons were attacked and overrun, armories looted... we had to bring the city under siege, and shell it for days. We cannot afford that now. If Equestria is to become like its children across the sea, it must come after the most radical opposition is crushed, and when its ponies are ready and willing to accept the change.
Are you concerned about being the Evil one? Dark Star, you must know that history advances in a dialectic. History contains within it many contradictions, and at every era questions must be asked that force these contradictions to the fore, and force a conflict between thesis and antithesis. In our era, this question is between those who see Ponies finding their happiness and purpose by their relationships with others - with family, tradition, culture, and the State - and with those who see Ponies as finding their ends severed from ties of family, tradition, culture, and the State. Should ponies see the Princesses and elements as rolemodels separate from themselves, leaving them free as individuals to pursue their own course? Or is society dutybound to the individual, and the individual duty bound to society, to make every pony an element bearer? These are the questions of our time, and I know very well where I stand. You should not feel concerned in the least to be "evil" to your antithesis, for that is their role in history, just as they recognize yours. Be certain that you triumph and they lose, and do not care if they are not, to the stallion, convinced of the rightness of your cause. Let them be swept aside. It matters not what they think sitting in a dank prison, lying dying in the street, hanging from a noose, or pouting silently at the parade procession sideline."

"Heheh. Do you think I don't feel the same sometimes? That I don't feel like I've been abandoned with no support, alone in a hostile land? That I don't want to request transfer to somewhere more comfortable? I know these feelings too. But I remember. You don't send a warrior to a land in peace, a police officer to order, or a doctor to the health. We are here precisely because the task is difficult. And if you can't win, if all you can do is to hold that rock in place up the hill? Then consider yourself successful, for you have won a holding action. You have held back the night just long enough that new warriors can come, and they can win. Feel no shame in that role, as it is essential. Is the struggle eternal? Perhaps it is, and the battle often needs to be refought every generation. That is just as well, because struggle, and struggle alone, teaches us courage, of loyalty to our comrades, of the necessity of our friendships, of the value of hope and laugher in hard times, and of kindness and generosity to those worse off than ourselves. Idle comfort does not breed virtue or meaning. Only boredom. And only when you may lose what you love, do you appreciate it. You, at least, have something you love. Bear any pain in fighting for it. It's worth it."

"Very good. Remember that all of these ponies who disagree with you haven't had the same experiences as you have. Perhaps they would see the world in the same way as you if they had. Perhaps they can be encouraged to see things differently.
Regarding a fake identification card, certainly one can be made. But if the professors and students do not believe you are one of theirs, well, an identification card may not help."
He scrunches at the last part
"The soldiers of the regular military are conscripts, and not all of them are Blackhooves. Most of them aren't, probably. They have fought hard in long and arduous campaigns across two continents. They have been kept in service away from the mares back home for longer than anticipated, though we do give them rotation. We set limits to what they are allowed to do in garrisons. Do not antagonize the locals with theft, rape, or destruction of property, do not fall for insurgent traps, and limit the spread of diseases. And aside from that, they are free to enjoy themselves. To the victor goes the spoils. It is better this way, lest they mutiny. And if it bothers you, look at it this way. It is better to be victorious and foul the women of a foreign nation, than to be defeated and see your own mares defiled. Let us keep it that way."

"I don't know how common it is. Probably only the medical experts know, and even they have to guess. But I have to assume that mares in Equestrian and Barrad assignment are more popular.

Perhaps it happens to Equestrians from our griffin soldiers. But war is a messy thing." Looking away at that last sentence, he turns his gaze back to Dark Star for the next segment
"A University is not the place for those who have lived on the streets, or indeed, have ever had to work in any meaningful capacity at all. If you have ever seen an overly pedicured poodle, blinded by its own fur and owned by a wealth lady, and contrasted that against a stray or wild dog, you will not have seen a contrast so great as that between the working class ponies, and the petite bourgeoise in universities who claim a divine right to represent and rule over the working classes."

"Your idealism is powerful. I hope you keep most of it. But I urge you to do what is necessary to make your ideals a reality. You probably have some skepticism about what our organization has done so far. But what we've accomplished already, no one would have expected. We are merely laying the groundwork for greater things to come."

Sorry for not playing for a while, I ghosted you pretty hard. I'm focusing on a couple of important things in life right now so it'll be a little while.

"Remember. This city is the most most radical of all of the cities of East Equestria, or even of the former Equestria. It is the only city outside of Severyana to successfully expel an Equestrian garrison by force in over a century. University students are always the most radical of the lot. What you see there is not like it is out in the rural countryside, not by any means. And you can help to keep it that way."

But in the city, they blend in among the general population. If we know who they are, and more importantly, who is organizing them, leading them, supplying them, and finding new recruits, then we can fight then, and stop them.”

"And perhaps many of them are good ponies, who, under better circumstances could be good citizens. Some are mislead by professors and other 'intellectuals' who have spouted non-sense. Some are filled with misdirected youthful idealism. And some have personal problems they funnel into politics.
We can't arrest all of them. There are far too many of them. We can't even exempt communists from the draft back home. Be careful though in trying to reach her. You do not want to give yourself away. They know we try to send in infiltrators."

"Pretty good for an afternoon. Now, what are they planning? Are they planning another uprising? An assassination? Who is involved? Are they demoralized and don't want to fight at all? Who is leading them? Where are they getting supplies? Do they have allies in the Royalists outside of the city? Is there some disagreement we can exploit? And if you stay long enough, get in deep enough, there may be room for something creative. Spark an uprising you know they are going to lose. Exploit disagreement and distrust to get them fighting each other. And much more. This may only be the beginning."

It's a number of blocks between the Blackhooves headquarters and the apartment, halfway across the town.
Dark Star arrives at a complex of small, brick buildings with two floors and low-grade roofs.
Dark Star can see that the apartment in question is one that seems to be larger than most, taking up much of the second floor of the building, and accessed by an exterior stairwell

June has a glass of wine, and it appears Mars most likely does too, though she is not levitating it.
Once the stallion takes a beer, a small swarm forms around the beer, including the yellow mare, Star Cut, two mares he hasn't seen before, and finally, Lunar Nadir. She comes up to Dark Star and says, "Dark Star! You made it." And quickly gets a beer

Is Dark Star really a beer drinker?
The short cut stallion - or colt, rather, since he can't be even as old as Solar Night - holds up a hoof and makes a swirling motion to Dark Star
"What cha' doing with that on? You look like a cop."

Mars Loaf moves in
"A shame? It's much more than a shame." She presses a hoof on Lunar Nadir, who pulls her wings out ever so slightly
"Nadi. Why don't you tell her what the countryside was like."
Nadir:
"I don't know that that's necessary."
Mars:
"No. Let her know."
Nadir:
"Okay... My mother is a native Thestral from a community in the upper Tenochtitlan basin. Like many in those times, there were no higher paying factory jobs in the villages, so she left for Baltimare... In Baltimare, she got pregnant. By a zebra. Life wasn't easy for her, by any means. When she lost her job, she went back to a town near the village where she grew up. They had a jute processing plant there. The pay was actually better. But the ponies..."
Nadir looks as if she is about to cry
"I think they found the bats strange to begin with. And a bat pony with stripes... They would look oddly at her, at me on the streets, they would have this look of disgust. I was an oddity to them. They didn't like bats, zebras, or those born out of wedlock, and they didn't like me. They would refuse her service from diners. Not one but two teachers didn't want me in their class. Almost had to kick me out because of how mean the other foals were..." Now she's definitely crying
"And when she would go up to the Thestral villages, it was worse. I was alien to them. She was shunned, actively by the community. Her parents wanted nothing to do with her. It was bad enough that she left the village. Coming back a single mother was worse. And coming back with striped foal.. that was too much for them. The job at the Jute plant was better than work in Baltimare, but she had to leave. We had to leave. And when we got to Baltimare, it was better. But only so much so. Teachers didn't care to kick me out. They also didn't care if I was bullied. Ponies weren't as hostile, especially not the bat ponies, but they weren't friendly... That's why I'm grateful to be around here."

She leans forward onto him, not saying anything. Her wings, wrapped closely to her body, but moves upward, covering her chest and neck, make contact against Dark Star's body. For what is very possibly the first time in Dark Star's life, he feels bat pony wings. They feel velvety, with the thinnest layer of fur covering them.
Mars loaf continues speaking to Lens
"Yeah, well, now you know."
Lense
"Oh, okay, I didn't know"
Mars loaf:
"Do you even have zebras in your community? Or thestrals?"
Lens
"A few but they are transient workers, and they keep to themselves..."
A short conversation follows that ends rather abruptly when a third mare comes by and asks about a reading assignment. The question catches Mars Loaf completely off guard, and she is terrified by the possibility of surprise quiz. Lens doesn't have this problem, as she is caught up in her reading regardless of whether it was assigned to be read by the following morning or not.
