HI CT, it's the remarks that offend me! I love black women, but not because they are black but because the overwhelming majority of them have natural breasts of a shape I adore! Of course, if a white or asian woman has the same features then I don't make any distinctions. Edited on Nov 17, 2011, 01:56pm | |

Someone will utter under his breath: "racist!" Or maybe, after they read my views on the subject: "politically correct knee jerk liberal" but I cannot stand those videos that make it a point to stress the fact that one of the partners is black, or white. This one invariably sets my teeth on edge: "My wife always wanted to fuck a black guy!" (No I am not jealous about the supposed difference in size) Or this one, white stunt cock to black woman: "Who do you prefer? White men or black men?" Of course in those videos the white man always wins as the color of the woman's choice. People are being treated like exotic animals just because their skin color is different. I suppose producers of videos think it's a compliment to Blacks when the "husband" says my wife always wanted to try a Black .. but to me it's a weird form of racism. I am looking forward to a time when the difference in skin color is no longer mentioned because both are seen as "just people." | |

You got me wrong. I like interviews if the right questions are asked. For instance, I collect most interviews when it comes to softcore/midcore sites. My beef is with many of those DVDs where the girls are asked the same stupid questions over and over. Sometimes the interviewer even forgets what he just asked a second ago. | |

I think some of the comments are right on while others miss the mark. I dislike the interviews with their inane questions but dislike it even more when a scene starts with both actors naked and in action already? I generally dislike music in a video but find it a must in solo scenes where otherwise the model just sways a bit to a tune that only she can hear. I heartily dislike all those drawn-out copulation feasts where every position under the sun is tried yet would have a hard time if the action were kept mostly missionary. All you see there is a pair of hairy buttocks pumping away. Most of those outlandish, backbreaking positions are meant to show more pussy and to make an overly long scene less boring. My greatest wish, when it comes to videos, is to see a reduction from the obligatory twenty-five minute fuck fest to about ten minutes. Sheesh, who wants to see anyone go on and on and on like that. Which leads me back to my pet peeve. How do you fill the extra time if you want to put three - four scenes into a video? We're all agreed that most interviews are moronic, this leaves a more gradual leading up to the action which could be easily done if the scene showed the model getting slowly undressed. Any editor should be in danger of losing his balls if he kept cutting that important part in a scene. Edited on Nov 16, 2011, 10:44am | |

Yes, I read about the shower room as well but since it involved an 11 year old my mind incorrectly transferred the act to a different location because I couldn't see a boy that young in a College setting. But you are right, of course. My mistake. As to your last two paragraphs I also agree. Institutions like the Scouts or the Church or Colleges up to now desperately tried to save their reputation and their very existence by sitting on the evidence rather than going to the Police because their survival depends on the continuous generosity of the faithful or alumni or parents who want to see their kids to grow up straight. Any hint of wrongdoing and the contributions are in danger of drying up so let's sweep it under the carpet. Sad! Criminal! That's why reporting an incident of sexual abuse to a superior is not enough. It has to be the Police, in every case of child abuse, or a job with the institutions who are so valuable to society otherwise will continue to be looked upon as a tempting prize by predatory pedophiles. I hope this incident will finally teach everyone a lesson and make our kids a bit safer in institutions that are meant to help them. Now if we could only do something about all the stuff that goes on behind closed doors without our knowledge, with victims who are too scared and powerless to speak up. | |

Sexual abuse is not restricted to College Football. Actually, the way I read it, the offenses weren't even committed in College but in a group started by the abuser to "help" troubled youth. How ironic and sad. But the sad truth is wherever there are churches with youth groups, scouts, junior sports teams etc. there will be the predators. One of my earliest recollections, way back in the late forties, is that of my scout leader shooting himself at the Swiss/German border when he was about to be arrested for homosexuality and pedophilia. In those days both were illegal. He never touched me but the lives of others were severely effected by his actions. | |

I sympathize with the cleaning woman and echo Andy Rooney's remark in your previous article: "There are a lot of know-nothing boobs who don't appreciate the modern art being put up in public places in all our cities," he declared peevishly one week. "I know this is true, because I'm one of those know-nothing boobs." Amen to that, Andy! Me too! | |

You made a very good point, Jasmine. The art of teasing and being sensual is gradually being lost. In the porn world I think it is lost already. I just got finished reading an excellent review about a site that has introduced "instant forward to your favorite sexual position or act." (According to the reviewer) This new feature which allows you to skip instantly the parts you don't like should be hugely popular with the many who consider foreplay in all its forms just a waste of their time! A shame. Sex in a porn video is a given, however sex only is boring to most who managed to live longer than thirty years! | |

While an Ultra High Resolution Picture may not look much different on a monitor from that of a lower resolution one, just enlarge it to scroll to various body parts of interest and you will see why most of us prefer "UHR." If I can't see every pore, every strand of hair, every bit of weave in the garment the model wears I feel cheated. I agree with lk2fireone that in normal viewing it is hard to tell the difference between 968x1300 and a picture that is 2000x3000 but I do like the option of zeroing in on some choice bits to get every detail. When it comes to pictures of lower value than 600x800px then forget it. No matter how popular they were with me at the time they do not look good on a monitor that is set at a resolution of 1680x1050, and I have deleted all but a handful. BTW, 968x1300, isn't bad (for now!) .. just at the lower end of the "very good" scale. | |

^ As an outsider I am even more appalled that a partially revealed breast should have become an issue and evoked such a large fine in the first place. So strange, the U.S. Porn industry is the largest and most productive in the world yet, in prime time, you can't even show a shielded nipple lest a child be corrupted. Yet, as I've stated many times before, for some reason real world violence, including the sight of dead bodies is okay ... even when the children are still awake. As to the speed of the judges' decision, Canada is not much better. Here, too, the windmills of justice turn with agonizing slowness. It is not unusual to see present day trials in connection with offenses that are three or more years old. | |

I agree, Ed, that normally it isn't a good idea to put photos and videos on the same site. I really have nothing against videos, I download them all the time, but find that mixed sites that started out as pure softcore get corrupted after a while because there always seems to be an element that clamors for more hardcore content. The webmaster will eventually oblige them and there goes another softcore site. That's why my search for a photos only site .. less of a chance of it turning hardcore. Too bad you couldn't have built your site with models ranging from 35 - 60. There are so many MILF sites already. Can you at least make it different by putting your models into some alluring undies for half of the set? I understand though how hard it must be to get a mature (over 40) model to pose, unless you want to be reduced to using the same small pool of models one sees almost ad nauseum on the various mature sites.

You'll surely know about that day, CT, because you'll hear me yelling with delight all the way from Canada! There were a couple of British sites like that, but last time I looked, which was some time ago, their quality was horrendous with their best picture sets weighing in at 800x600px ... and there weren't too many of those. | |

... that among tens of thousands of Porn sites there is not a single one that specializes in: a) Quality Photos only, b) Softcore only (which, by my definition, can include masturbation), c) Mature Women over 40 going from fully dressed to fully nude? I am even dropping my demand for sexy lingerie. C'mon, someone ... anyone ... give me a break and name that site. | |

I have a wide screen monitor as well and agree when it comes to older material. For some reason pre-HD material does look crisper and cleaner on a CRT. Same with Television, most of my lower channels (non-HD) do not look as good on my LCD, wide screen TV, as they did with my old CRT TV. | |

Further to the subject: I read (saw on TV) only a couple of days ago that an alarming number of young men are experiencing erectile dysfunction these days because they have been de-sensitized by looking at too much porn and real life just doesn't live up to their expectations. Was the author of the study objective or was he/she promoting a cause .. ? I have no idea !?! So, asking our younger members: Has Viagra and Cialis become prematurely important in your life? Would you agree with the author of the study? | |

Nothing will ever be able to compare to the feeling of holding a naked, warm, loving body in your arms. Porn has never managed to replace that in my life and I've been at it a long time. It would really be too bad if a new generation felt differently. Nothing like the real thing. One thing mentioned in the article surprised me: that young porn users would prefer "enhanced" breasts to natural. Strange, if true. I prefer the natural non-pornstar look anyway so the girl (woman) next door is my ideal, not the glamorized version found in most sites. So, college co-eds, take heart .. there are others like me as well who will find you not only desirable but who will be willing to invest their lives in a loving future with you! | |

Two years later: I'm a Porn snob. If it isn't top quality I don't want to look at it. So, tube sites are out, not only from principle but also because of the low quality of the "free" material they are willing to give you until you decide to upgrade. And to respond to the original question albeit a bit late. I had never heard of the sites mentioned until the webmaster (maxmixdv) brought them up. | |

Count me in when it comes to being a full body fan! That's why I also prefer landscape type pictures. I hate videos and picture sets where half of the content shows nothing but close-ups of the genitals. Even in one of my most highly rated sites (AW) it has always bothered me that every picture set contained a series of photos that showed nothing but trunk shots, starting at the waist and going to the upper thighs. I would trade those pictures any time for a full body shot even though I would get less detail. Actually that is not altogether true either, in this age of Ultra High Resolution even a full body shot can be spectacular when lovingly scrolled. | |

Regrettably I think the Porn Industry knows its customers all too well. How many times have I seen the remark: "I don't care if they are fake or natural as long as they're big!" I hate that darn shiny perfection, those perfect orbs that are in such obvious contrast to the rest of the body, the flattened out nipples .. arghh, yet the boys go crazy over them. I think this forum is an exception rather than the rule because most of us despise "bolt ons!" | |

Yes, we are. Do you ever read the comments in VideoBox when they update with a DVD containing larger women? The place goes mad with negativity. Do not ever dare update anything that isn't young and skinny, is the usual reaction. And those of us who like so-called niche material (which is anything that is not young and skinny) wait for weeks for something that suits us. | |

I just read your review of ATK Exotics and thank you for saving me a subscription. It appears our tastes are alike when it comes to natural pictures, rather than orangey tinted ones, as well as when it comes to a preference to see every pore of the model in a high resolution picture AND a wider use of landscape rather than portrait. However this won't help you with a site and I can't help you there because I am still looking myself. Good luck to both of us. PS. Actually something just occurred to me, have you tried Abby Winters yet? Their pictures are very clear with natural colors and they have a nice variety of amateur models. You might find them a bit too tame but I liked the site. Only thing I didn't like is their tendency to show too many rump shots while I like to see the whole body. Edited on Oct 17, 2011, 07:13pm | |

I don't doubt that many young people want more western style life and culture but there's a counter balance of young Muslim people who live in Western Society who yearn to return to more traditional values. This incomprehensible fact (to me) is the scary thing. There are many Muslims who were born and grew up in Germany for whom the taking up of the veil and the living of a more traditional life has become the thing to do. Maybe it is rebellion against Turkish parents who had taken on more western ways, maybe it is a genuinely religious thing, who knows .. but they willingly put themselves back under the yoke of fundamentalism. Even in Turkey itself, a country that has been secular since the beginning of last century an Islamic Party now rules who was only recently attempting to bring back the veil. Only their own constitution stopped them. In Iran and Afghanistan women did far better under odious oppressors like the Russians or the American backed Shah. They were doctors, lawyers, teachers, scientists. Can you honestly say that once the dictatorial forces were removed it was only old men who made everyone revert to fundamentalism. Oh, I know there are exceptions. You are right, there are many young people you yearn to experience our freedoms with all the excesses those freedoms bring with it, but the majority of those Muslims who live in Iran and Afghanistan seem to wish to live under their "good, ole religion." Even the Afghan Constitution is based on the Koran. Using your example, it was not the old grey bearded Ayatollahs that brought about the present state of affairs. They would have never achieved their present position of power without all those enthusiastic young RELIGIOUS firebrands, who even though slightly older now still support them to this day. In Egypt, the Muslim Brotherhood will have a lot to say in the months to come. In Yemen, if their protests turn out to be successful you will have to worry about a lot of new recruits to Al Quaida. You may mark my words. Only recently Christian Copts in Egypt had their churches burned and their lives threatened because they trusted the new powers to do the right thing. Yet those same powers sent tanks crashing through their ranks when they protested the persecution. After all, they were only Christians. In any case, you are absolutely right when you say too much religion is harmful to people .. I am a firm believer in the separation of Church and State and wouldn't have it any other way. Truly religious people in power quite frankly scare me. But when considering North Africa and parts of the Middle East, including the Arab Peninsula please remember that it's not only a handful of old people who are reluctant to change or give up their power who are causing the problem. If you are Muslim, you will live by your interpretation of what the Koran says .. there can be no separation of Church and State with them because in Islam, faith and politics cannot be kept separate. You live by the Sharia law which leaves no room for compromise when it comes to other religions or ways of living! Sorry! | |

I keep uttering dire predictions to my loved ones when it comes to the so-called Arab Spring. Everyone is celebrating the new "democracies" in Egypt, in Libya, in Tunesia and the ones to come in Yemen and Syria .. but everyone seems to forget the threat of fundamentalist Islamism that these populist movements are bringing with them. The Tunisian example listed above is a classic example of what may happen when the people of the Muslim world finally get a say in how to govern themselves ... not very encouraging. As a matter of fact it is downright scary how many ordinary folks in the Middle East and Northern Africa would love to take their societies back to the middle ages in the name of Allah! | |

I got used to watching all movies on my Wide Screen TV. Not having a car makes that decision a fairly easy one. One thing no one ever mentions is the noise level of the average Theater movie. I am half deaf and most movies were painfully loud even for me when I still went to see them. I wonder what made the theater owners decide that blaring noise was best? | |

Fair enough, my friend! I know what it's like to favor a particular niche or act so I can understand why you would edit anything that doesn't turn you on. As you may have guessed by now, stripping, sexy lingerie before the actual sex is mine .. "tenderness" was actually a bit of a misnomer I just don't like a model fully dressed one moment and then down on her knees, naked, the next. (Did I say that before?) I guess that influences the way *I* look at everything. If the undressing is missing then the whole scene is boring to me. Cheers and I'm glad you took my remarks in the right spirit. | |

An unintended result of revealing the names of all those who opted in might be to help legitimize porn because 90% of all adult males would choose that option, and once the anti-porn minority saw the millions of names on that site they'd give up the fight that cannot be won! BTW, the 90% part is a figment of my imagination but I can't be too far from the truth because every single man I know likes porn in some form or the other. | |

You are certainly not alone in your preference for McMac Porn, jberryl69, otherwise the market wouldn't be flooded with the stuff. What amazes me is that you still get a kick out of the gonzo, let's get straight to it, stuff. Truthfully, my first reaction was, jberryl69 must be a young man until I checked your profile. Don't you ever get tired of same old, same old? I am not trying to provoke you, it's an honest question without any desire on my part to be confrontational. | |

^ "Too big for my little brain to sort out, thus as an Atheist I will admit I could be WRONG! Sort of backsliding into Agnostic territory." Words of wisdom! With me it worked the opposite: backsliding from complete conviction into "agnostic" mode! Not in connection with the existence of God but in connection with how He works. Most of us tend to put him into a denominational box but I've come to the same conclusion as you, my brain is simply too small to sort things out, so I am unaffiliated with any church or dogma. I do disagree with you in connection with: "It is hard to believe ... that religion & porn have any relationship other than being polar opposites." They became polar opposites. It wasn't always so. In ancient Greece Temple Prostitutes played an important part. | |

Be of good cheer, cybertoad. It may take longer these days but I promise you'll be good until you're 75! However it is at this age when you might run into two problems: a) your porn saturation point has been reached and most offerings become ho-hum, and, b) all the stuff that turned you on in your youth, and still turns you on now, like ladies clad in teddies, and full back panties and baby doll pajamas and slips and nylon (NOT fishnet) stockings and garter belts and high heels, has become obsolete and has become a rare find in the world of porn. And you end up moaning and bitching about the lack of eroticism till those who are younger than you throw up their hands in despair and hope they'll never have to look at anything you write again! Wait, I got carried away .. in any case, take heart, you're good for a few more years yet! But it will take more stimulation each year, that's for sure! | |

I used to say that every Christian appears to have a God and Jesus of his own making. A Deity who has been reshaped and refashioned to reflect the individual's personal make up. Come from a dysfunctional home with a harsh father and chances are that your God will most likely be harsh and judgmental as well, come from a kind and loving home and your God will probably be kind and loving. This is my view only and is not necessarily true but I believe it! At the moment I think of myself as an "agnostic" Christian, someone who believes in the basics of the faith, but not so much in all the baggage that has been handed down to us, in all the limitations of "religion," this cage of our own making, with all of its restrictions and "certainties" and guilt inducing little tricks that attempt to keep us on the straight and narrow. As far as I am concerned, kind people do not have to be coerced to be kind. They would be kind even if God did not exist and the hateful ones, the destroyers would destroy and hate, God or no God. Except in the latter case, if they are "true believers" they would attempt to justify their cruel actions by quoting all the harsh passages in the O.T. or the Koran and deceive themselves into thinking that they are doing the will of God. I am not arrogant enough to think that I have God, His nature or His actions, all figured out. I carry many doubts around with me and will most likely take them to my grave. I hope that I will be pleasantly surprised, but who can be sure. I am only sure of two things, a) it can't hurt to act in a loving manner and b) that "whatsoever you sow, that shall you reap!" Experience has taught me that those two truths are eternal and immutable. Thus endeth the lesson! PS. And when it comes to Porn, in the light of all the despicable, cruel, destructive things individuals and nations tend to do to one another, I think the liking of Porn would rank way down on a Deity`s list of moral offenses. But, again, I feel presumptuous even saying that. What do *I* know. | |
