1. You're watching the wrong porn...
and while it's not so easy to find, there are companies out there aiming for women and couples.

Any fantasy you want is available.

2. Well, I have this fantasy involving
a lawn-mower and a bowl of cheese-wiz. Do you think they have something for me?

4. Are you basing that theory on
what you _assume_ are women's fantasies, or what women have actually told you their fantasies are? Just wondering.

5. What I learned is
that it eventually destroys your soul.

Human beings have tolerances to all utility. That tolerance does and will be pushed to further extremes once you can no longer get the same fix on your particular brand of vice. The snowballed effect of searching out more and more extreme porn, directly focused on your particular brand of perversion is a method slowly and evenly refined. Yet you will refine that, until you end up with a one armed midget peeping out of a toilet bowl, with light-pink tranluscent lipstick on for $10 a month.

Or is that just me?

(works both ways)

12. Seems to be your problem
Because millions of adult enjoy adult entertainment from time to time - they aren't "addictied" they don't "search out harder and harder porn", or any of the other things you are asserting.

Your post sounds like it came right off the Morality in Media website.

9. Ok, here's another female point of view
Edited on Sun May-29-05 12:43 AM by TheProphetess
What I learned from the stuff on Pay-Per-View is that you can see as much of a woman as you'd like but there will be very little of the man exposed.
Or so I've been told...:)

10. O.K ladies check in here!
What do you find really erotic? Guys are very visual. What really turns you on?

Put another way, If you don't look like the chick in the Victorias Secret ad, don't expect me to act like the guy in the soap opera!

17. There is more truth there than we would like, I suspect.
Porn (and the rest of our media as well) does seem to idealize specific looks that may not have any bearing in your reality.

I have a running joke with my husband about that the lady in that Bow-flex ad ("I'm fifty years old and a grandma") wearing that tiny little bikini around the pool. I always ask him if I get a Bow-flex and work out faithfully until I look like her, will he be willing to work out until he's twenty something again like her boy pal in the ad...

It sounds odd, but I think there are people who do not stop to think about the pressure that porn puts on men and women to look or act a specific way.

I don't usually run around the house in a few inches of lace adorned butt-floss, and my husband has days he doesn't feel like shaving. It doesn't make us less sexual, but it does mean that we have to remember that when we turn on any programming and start comparing ourselves to it.

It really isn't much different than the old days of Father Knows Best when the wife wore pearls and high heels to run her Hoover...

15. I learned
that there is something for everyone, and that in the porn world, had I chosen to go that way in my life, I would have been paid more for being overweight as I would get to appear in fetish and not straight porn.

19. What I learned is that there are as many fantasies being realised...
Edited on Sun May-29-05 01:04 PM by CanuckAmok
...on video as there are people to dream fantasies. There's something for everyone, I'll bet.
