Obviously it's the sex appeal, though I've heard many comments regarding professional female athletes and their looks, frequently of the "Yeah, she's in great shape, but that alone doesn't make someone hot." Anyway, you don't need to waste time flipping through sports channels or listening to talking head announcers, there's plenty of entertainment that cuts out the whole sports part.  Taken to its extreme, like with that American female race car driver a few years ago, what exactly is the appeal? In that case, aren't you just watching cars drive around an oval track for a few hours? Even when the athletes(?) get out they've covered almost every inch of their bodies in flame-retardant clothing. That's hardly the pinnacle of sexiness in my book, though I'm sure there's some overdressed/extra-safe-extra-sexy fetish out there I don't know about.  "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Don't worry, rearadmiral, you're not alone in your detestation of sports.  I could go on an on listing all the various reasons why I don't care about, much less enjoy and follow, any teams or particular sports. Though I certainly disagreed with him on many subjects, Christopher Hitchens wrote a great article about sports around the time of the last winter Olympics (he died in 2011) with his typical cynicism and contrarianism, though I think he denied both of these descriptors in numerous interviews. Just in case you haven't heard of him, if Hitchens was going to write on a subject it was usually to bitch about it, in a more elegant way than me, and he doesn't disappoint here. Before I let my  get too out of control here, I'll just say that I don't understand why, in the spirit of ostensibly bringing countries and their people together, you would think something as meaningless and purposely divisive as the Olympics are continually held up as a shining example of such. Or at the least do so without spending billions on one-use buildings and having people travel to a country controlled by an increasingly creepy president/shirtless strongman.

LPee23, I don't think different file formats will go away anytime soon, at least not in terms of readability, and maybe not even in "writeability" due to older versions of software sticking around forever on the Internet. And if anything I'm sure updating things won't be totally impossible if enough pervs deem it necessary.  The only backup software I ever use is Apple's Time Machine, which is part of their OS, though you don't have to use it, and is really just to backup the main internal hard drive. For manual backups I only copy important folders, and in the case of porn the stuff I really don't want to lose. Go through your collection and there is plenty you could live without and that isn't exactly rare either. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Wow, and probably one of the few times I was interested in something related to the Olympics, if only because of porn. Women who look like that make me almost believe there is a god, but then she only got to live a few decades and my doubts continue. At least she brought some joy to others during her lifetime.

You can just reformat the drive the first time you power it up and plug it in, in fact this should always be done. I've lost count of the number of hard drive reviews that have mentioned the sheer shittiness of the preloaded bloatware manufacturers infect their products with--something that could have been avoided with the extra few minutes that the quick formatting process takes. You can also partition the drive if you want or give it a different file system (NTFS vs. FAT32, for example). "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

You can always open up the case, and immediately void the warranty. Though to be fair manufacturers have become so picky it seems that just taking the hard drive out of its original packaging voids the warranty. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

It can be trusted if what takes you to is a legitimate paysite--which CCBill certainly is--and the price is discounted as claimed (why the CCBill page has all the different prices in the drop-down menu is beyond me though, probably unintended). But CCBill can be trusted and won't hide the price you'll pay on the signup page. As always, the discount/coupon is dependent on the route you go to get to the signup page. Go directly to a paysite and expect to find the highest/"normal" price, but go through the PU review page or something else, even without quitting the browser, and the price should be different.

I don't think of Western Digital as being that much more expensive than Seagate, especially if you shop around and take advantage of sales. But either way you're buying a consumer drive, not a Rocstor or G-Technology drive, which have better reputations and correspondingly higher prices. But the price per GB on hard disk drives is still a crazy good deal today compared to what it was only a few years ago. Until solid state drives become as economically competitive (and we'll still need them for all the things that cloud storage can't replace) the risk of a hard drive failure can be mitigated with regular backups and vigilance.

Sorry to hear your troubles, messmer (and I thought this would be your disgust with a site). Whatever you do, don't give a site your "good" address--that is for your normal, day-to-day email--give them your older, spammed-up one. You should also have this for non-porn marketing stuff that requires an email, if only for completion purposes, but not something that would really ever need checking (signing up for a forum, etc.). And as much as I love PU I still gave them my spam email address when I signed up, and I only check it once every few weeks if that (while hoping Khan never sends pertinent messages that way  though I check PU way more regularly). Even "a popular and highly rated" site should not get your normal address since you don't really know what they're doing with it. Better safe than sorry.  Interestingly, at least in the U.S., Google does let you set up a new phone number for free, called Voice, (as long as you have a Gmail account, d'oh!) that I've also used on occasion for sites that have wanted a phone number and I don't feel like giving out my sacred cell #. It comes through my cell phone but I have it ID'ed as "Google Voice" to let me know it's probably a machine or from something/someone I don't want contacting me. On a side note, on my normal, non-spam email I have gotten the occasional legitimate email tossed into their spam label (Googlespeak for folder). Otherwise little actual spam, and not very serious spam at that--no Nigerian princes or "guaranteed" penis enlargement offers...yet. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

And if it makes anyone feel better, here's a quote from Douglas Adams (The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy) that some of you were probably already thinking of: "The idea that Bill Gates has appeared like a knight in shining armor to lead all customers out of a mire of technological chaos neatly ignores the fact that it was he who, by peddling second-rate technology, led them into it in the first place."

As always, I'm a little late to the discussion, or at least a thread that's gotten a healthy number of responses. To expand on what Rick wrote a couple days ago;
I definitely agree that the adult industry has to catch up. I have fallen in love with the spoils of a one month all-you-can-download subscription, and they have made me jaded to the idea of pay-as-you-get-off concept like iTunes and even more angry with the notion of streaming-only services. Don't get me wrong, outside of porn I've grown to love streaming, with Netflix being the prime example. I watch tons of stuff there that makes me go "Yeah, that was good and I give it four stars, but I don't want to ever watch it again--for eternity." (And its recommendations need some work too; I'm still wading through a lot of junk just because I gave Brokeback Mountain such a high rating a few years ago. And iTunes is cool too, because even though you pay as go, you still get easy, reliable access, and theoretically permanent access at that. I've updated iTunes music downloads between computers because of a simple check it does on its Purchased section of the store. If there was something even remotely that easy for porn just to avoid repeat downloads and missing files...it would be the veritable godsend (goddess-send, because of my focus on women?). Maybe flat rate sites--roughly a porn version of Netflix Instant Watch--would be cool if they could be as easy to use, or somehow get on your TV more easily. Could Roku make their devices compatible for that? (Hopefully without calling it Fucku to call out us pervs?  ) And on a side note, Jobs was not known as a fan of smut, believing in having "moral responsibility," at least with regards to porn on the iPhone. Makes me laugh to think of all the porn that has been edited, uploaded, and downloaded with his computers. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

I'll give some credit to Bill Gates for using his vast, vast wealth to start a decent nonprofit organization that actually does charitable work. So many rich assholes have used their money simply to buy politicians and elections--aka "free speech" --that one of the world's best known billionaires using some of his fortune to actually try and help people almost, almost, makes up for all the stress and frustration his Windows products have caused over the years.Don't get me wrong; I love my two Apple computers, and they are quite easy to use (including its version of Office  ), but Jobs was never the philanthropist of Gates. And no number of Foxconn-installed suicide nets will change that.
Nope, you only need the tyranny of a corporate overlord!  Still, saying Microsoft constituted a monopoly because of the dominance of its shitty browser still doesn't quite make it the Bond villain we all like to accuse it of being.

I agree, partly because I have a few tattoos myself (but not implants ) and I'm not one for imbibing in the whole tattoos-are-ugly trope, and also because I know plenty of real, non-porn women who have tattoos but not all the other body mods seen in porn.I was reminded of my distaste the other day when I was looking at the photos on Lisa Ann's Twitter feed--ugh! Over sculpted/"toned" jawline and arms complemented by cartoonishly oversized breasts that look like they're almost as much for laughs as they are for lust. Most of her friends in the photos looked the same. They sport Grand Canyon cleavage engineered into dresses which look to be made out of spandex and Kevlar, lest those mammoth mammaries spill out and collapse into a black hole. And they look so hourglass-shaped that you think you're viewing a photo that was skewed in Photoshop or at one of those funhouse mirrors. Don't get me wrong, I'm no fan of the pear-shaped, bottom-heavy female (though I'll let it slide for the more Rubenesque with pee fetishes), but transmogrifying yourself into a real life RealDoll is not attractive to me--it's fucking scary!  Just my angry , but maybe I need to stop complaining and go join AbbyWinters for awhile. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

I once read something where the writer called penis enlargement possibly the most narcissistic thing ever, but penis size isn't as obvious when clothed (at least in most clothes) as breast size is for woman. And I think you could get a lot more with enlarged breasts socially than you could with a bigger dick (though maybe it could at least stop making some guys from being so obsessed with owning gigantic cars and weapons ). Still, why isn't there a female equivalent of Viagra/Cialis? I'm guessing part of the problem is there's more there than a simple physical "dysfunction," as boner pill advertising seems to usually imply that men are basically horny every second of their lives and just have blood flow issues. Whereas with women's sexuality men view the problem as them not being horny every second of their lives but are still morally opposed to something like GHB. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Cybertoad, I would agree there's a lot of bad influence from the numerous actors in our bizarre media environment, particularly within the freak show that is reality TV. See a rich, successful, and ostensibly happy woman on TV going in for multiple plastic surgeries and it's not hard to see why some viewers could think they too could be just as happy. Sad really, and evidence of our further commodification of the human body as something to be upgraded and maintained. Even things that could have genuine benefits for our health--regular exercise, improved diet--are almost always promoted in part because of how "great" you'll look. Because if nothing else, it's important to maintain your narcissism. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

I'm afraid I pretty much agree with this; take out any and all hints of romanticism, if there ever was any to begin with, add in more choking, gagging, and spitting, and then make sure the male is always the aggressor. The whole spectacle ends up looking less than consensual, at least in a narrative sense. Think about it: how many scenes are there with the basic plot being that the main "girl" is "forced" into the sex or "giving" it only in exchange for something else? In the real world, at least if it were even reported, this would be interpreted as blackmail or [that "prohibited word"]. I'd like to think that the majority of viewers aren't into porn because their fantasy is more violent than it is sexual (using forced sex as a power play rather than anything having to do with giving and receiving pleasure), but I look at much of porn, particularly the now mainstreamed ass-pounding variety, and I start to have my doubts. There's a 2009 book called Empire of Illusion by Chris Hedges about what he sees as the dumbing down of American culture and the use of entertainment to escape the real world. The second chapter is about American porn and how he sees it getting increasingly aggressive and misogynist. He even compares this to the sexualized nature of the abuse and torture seen in the Abu Ghraib prison scandal. Personally, I think this is a stretch because there is a clear line between the reality of our foreign policy fuck-ups and the twisted fantasies of our porn. And it seems that too often we prefer to focus on the symptoms of the latter (hardcore porn that's easier to find than ever before, the Culture War) without caring much about the causes of the former (contempt for human rights, extreme nationalism, our real wars). But I do think we have a perverted culture and numerous unhealthy representations of sex. I don't mean solely in the pornographic sense, but in that we still too often present sex or sexual desire as something that is inherently perverted and wrong. That it's not part of normal, healthy lives and relationships but a crass tool to sell products and their accompanying lifestyles. And so much of it is not discussed, at least in a serious way, that the media mostly handles it immaturely and inaccurately. So, if sex is a taboo, why not depict it in even more taboo forms? And if anal sex is the ultimate taboo, why not take that to its logical extreme and depict it as degrading and aggressively as possible? Yes, we are told the female may secretly "want it," so why not choke, slap, and spit on her for such a desire? And if she doesn't then why make anything else in the scene about what she may want? The biggest problem may be that the female performers are such good actors that much of the male audience is jaded from thinking that all this sexual overkill is what women are really into. (Sorry for the long rant/post, but my tend to prattle on.) "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Just out of curiosity, jook, did you ever work (still work?) as part of the waitstaff in restaurants? I know there are countless stories from servers regarding customers and/or their tips (or total lack thereof), many of which have kept me away from ever even thinking of working in that industry. I have also read there is a new law or regulation starting this year from the Dept. of Labor that will allow restaurants to not add automatic gratuity for parties of six or more (or whatever the number is). It just seems to be a horrid job depending on what state you're working in, where the minimum wage for a tipped employee and a non-tipped one can vary hugely. A handful of states do not allow any discrepancy in the minimum wage between the two, and as far as I know they have not fallen into anarchy. It all seems to be an elaborate excuse masquerading as a "tradition" to pay people less. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

I'm a little late to this thread, but I think the majority of porn viewers are like beer consumers. They're not necessarily looking for the hardest, fanciest ("quality"), most exotic fare, just something to get their rocks off/buzz on. And while beer has more than enough stuck up snobs, the numbers don't lie (nor apparently do the snobs, read the comments in that article or just about anything here in our forum  ): the cheaper brews sell. And tons of free or cheap 'tube and download sites still operate, offering easy access to the quick 'n' dirty.So while we, the loyally paying porn snobs, demand the quality, I think the majority of deviants are still just looking for an easy boner/buzz.  With that said, I'd prefer full/actual quality of what a site is offering, but it doesn't necessarily have to be a full length video or photo set, but preferably something that gives us an accurate taste. Basically, much of what Rick has already posted above. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual.

And to add my own personal tastes in anal porn, I actually prefer the kind that is rough and dirty but not abusingly so. I admitted this a difficult preference to achieve because so much of porn treats it as a "hard" act, in that mutual pleasure isn't necessarily the gist of the scene (even in those intense girl-girl-girl Epicurean EverythingButt epics). Too many scenes resort to what you don't like; the brutal ass pounding. Hey, there is already a nearly endless list of R-rated fare that more than fulfills the need to watch a violent patriarchal character who can only get his rocks off by choking and pushing around every women within reach. I neither need nor want to see it sexualized and drawn out for my porn as well. The porn industry seems to treat our cultural taboo of anal sex as license to make it increasingly abusive.

Are you trying to say you're really a Scientologist?
I'm sure there are some PU'ers who don't think any anal is natural, much less a turn-on. And maybe they think you are nuts and that anal is a always punishment (and not in a fun, consensual way). I'm not totally sure what you mean though by "natural," if something besides all the scenes and sites that are turning anal into to some sort of bizarre sexual stunt act. There's the hotkinkyjo/Piercedaspid.com/DirtyGardenGirl.com take on anal...which is extreme, to say the least, and hardly what I think the majority of even us dedicated perverts would label natural ("Hey, don't put your fist in there!" ). And EverythingButt, though highly consensual, comes off as exasperatingly kinky, with the intended "hardness" of the scenes becoming annoying because you're being reminded of it every few seconds with the yelling, swearing, name-calling, and overall abuse on display. Yet, those are hour-plus scenes with gaping, fisting, and multiple performers, so I think it's more natural for them but not what you're looking for. PU's anal category is not too small, though hardcore offers more options, just not exclusively anal-oriented. I think the problem is if a scene is anal, or at least boy-girl anal, it's presumed to be of the pounding variety--nothing softer will be accepted!  Even something like Seymore Butts, while having a reputation as not being abusive or misogynist, is hardly gentle buttfucking. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

The current system still doesn't seem to favor either; designed to gobble up fees wherever possible. That site I linked to has a pretty long list of non-negotiable fees that businesses have to deal with if they want to process credit card transactions. In regards to American Express, I always thought it was a more traditionally consumer-oriented card anyway. Hence, the rewards, willingness of customers to pay annual fees (their more exclusive cards cost over $1k), and that they were not issued through a separate bank. The tradeoff being that fewer businesses accepted it, at least without a fee or minimum transaction. It's changed of course, and there seem to be more Visa and MasterCard-like AmEx cards available.
That still doesn't help my paranoia regarding physical security, especially with things like IDs and credit cards. Whenever I'm emailing those various Nigerian princes my CC number and PIN I still have the card in my hands--way more secure! Outside of stealing their numbers, I've heard you should try to pay tips at restaurants in cash, as it can be faster and some restaurants handle tips differently, like occasionally taking some of the tip to pay those damned fees if it was part of a total credit card charge. Personally I'm not a fan of the American-style optional tipping, especially since it means workers can earn less simply because they claim to not like the service or the server. Does it really encroach on our freedoms to require automatic gratuity because an individual might not get to be more of an asshole with their money? "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Understanding that I'm pretty paranoid, I've always been weary of entering my PIN in those all-too-often rickety looking pads, especially surrounded by strangers in close quarters. And I might care about the various fees--the majority of which go to the banks issuing the credit cards, not Visa, MasterCard, etc.--merchants have to pay if they could be more secure in the way they handle my card's info. You know; not fuck it up for me and 40-70 million customers.
At least it's better than when the old way of "processing" your credit card at the register was literally making a carbon copy of it! I've heard one of the remaining risky transactions are restaurants, because you simply hand your card over to a person you met only an hour or so before and he or she just walks away with it to do whatever! The American credit card industry is still an insanely run operation. With all the hidden fees, bullshit rules and regulations (for consumers, not card issuers), and just general predatory climate in which they all do business it's like some sort of black comedy where consumers lose their savings and identity while corporations laugh as they walk away with the profits and as much salable information as they can suck up. And if you're interested in what your actual credit score is you get to pony up dough to one of the three Goliaths in consumer credit reporting, an industry that last year "60 Minutes" claimed was a 4 billion dollar industry--despite a federal government study that 40 million people have mistakes in their credit records. Yes, these three massive companies fuck up a sizable percentage of consumers' info while simultaneously lording over so much of it (files on around 200 million Americans' financial records). I guess we can't really regulate such things because we'd miss out on the Kafkaesque joke currently being played out on our lives. Just my . "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Woohoo! There's now recent news that the Target data breach may have affected up 70 million people in terms of info like name, email address, home address, and phone numbers. This paragraph of the linked article is particularly unsettling: "The company also said that the theft of personal information was not limited to customers who shopped at a Target store over the holiday period. Any person who has ever shopped at a U.S. Target store could have been affected." So, maybe the question is was Orwell wrong about who the real Big Brother was? Maybe it wasn't the name of our future dystopian state overlords, but the private sector tyrannies we all seem to be, whether willingly or not, enriching and empowering.

I know this preview is mostly for looks, and maybe you've already answered this, but will any of the current forum carry over to the new PornForums? I kinda agree with RB; the UI is a little much when it's got cursor/hover sensitive (or whatever the correct technical term is) that adjusts a lot of the layout as you move your mouse around. For example, when you move your pointer over a thread title a sub heading appears and moves all the other ones down. Maybe if you could make it expand horizontally (to the right, given the space limitations), or just have it highlight to different color text, so it doesn't appear to rearrange the rest of the page. (Just suggestions, keeping in mind I'm not a web developer.) And one last question (for now! ): when the site is up and running normally will the list of threads and tabs be moved up closer to the top? The image dominates the whole page right now.But looking pretty good so far, and it'll be interesting to see more interactive previews in the coming weeks and months. Thanks, Rick!

That's odd for ATK, since their other (and considerably less hairy) sites still appear to be $30/month. But shouldn't it be the opposite? Lower price because of money saved on shaving supplies, waxes, and laser treatments? "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Salon had a short article about how recently "an Australian man" won an auction for an hour-long interactive one-on-one webcam show with a Kink.com performer named Maitresse Madeline. His winning bid: forty-two thousand dollars!  I'm not a fan of cam shows in general since I view adult entertainment as generally escapist fantasy (and I admit I have a fucked up imagination), not an active part of my life, or at least my sex life. And $42K sure beats what VIP Empress Ashley Dupré made being a "companion" to Eliot Spitzer a few years back (though he's believed to have paid more over several years and different women). Even then I remember comedians joking "What does a woman do for that kind of money? Come to your house and setup an entertainment system?" I guess for at least some the economics look good for the near future. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Well, messmer, in that case you opened up a whole new can of worms; computer gaming, or just building a gaming rig is the subject of entire sites. Have fun!  BTW: I play my games on a PS3 and only own Macs right now, so I really can't steer you in any significant directions regarding PC gaming, much less building a proper setup.

You might possibly need to upgrade your video card, depending on the resolution of the monitor (higher with a bigger display size). In terms of what a monitor comes with, it's usually just cables--not necessarily the one you need, but more than likely it will--and possibly software on a CD or through the manufacturer's site, though you can ignore that (crapware). Here's a site with a little more explanation. Your best bet will be to find out exactly what video card your computer currently has and the maximum resolution that it will display. In theory you would be able to display a lower resolution on a bigger display (if your video card can't handle its max resolution) but it would start to look shitty--essentially a "zoomed in" look where everything is bigger because of the bigger display space.

The only site I can think of above this is In The Crack, at $35/month...but maybe that's because it's Canadian. I first joined this site years ago, years before I even reviewed it here at PU, and I seem to remember it being over $30 even then. And as erotically entertaining/educational as I found it I could not get past the price for a rejoin, and don't remember a discount offer either. I guess there's something to be said for its quality as it's been pretty consistent over the years, only branching out by shooting in more overseas locations and with more mainstream models. They started in 2001, a year in which they had a grand total of fourteen shoots, which they can now release in about one month. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

I recently watched Lovelace on Netflix and this thread reminded me of the claims made about Deep Throat's huge revenues, the highest and most common figure being $600 million. However, a 2005 LA Times article discusses why this is so unrealistic, particularly for a film banned as obscene in much of the U.S. and at a time when ticket prices were considerably lower (and no, the number is not adjusted for inflation). Even if Deep Throat generated considerable revenue for a porn film, it's likely much of that went to whatever legitimate businessmen were running the theaters screening it, and they probably inflated its grosses in order to hide the laundering of revenue of their more serious transactions (drugs, prostitution, etc.). Lovelace herself was supposedly only paid about $1200 for being in Deep Throat, and is one of the sad lessons of porn; the paycheck happens only once but the images are forever. Even those who held her up as an advocate against porn--a number of outspoken feminists who allied with, of all people, some in the Reagan administration during an anti-porn movement in the '80s--only used her to further their own ends. The Inside Deep Throat documentary is far less depressing, and gets a little into the money made by it, though it advocates the $600m figure. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

I didn't particularly care for Flight. Even for a Robert Zemekis film, it was way too syrupy for me, and not in a straightforward way, but in an almost goofy spiritualist manner. The one character I somewhat enjoyed in the story, played by Washington, is still an egotistical, coke-snorting alcoholic, and apparently not going to church is still high on the rest of cast's list of his problems (while already being well aware of the flaws I mentioned above). In general I don't like films that feel like they would be too shallow even for a TV movie.  "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

I've never heard of any myself, as most books concerning the industry fall into the categories of memoir (good vs. traumatic experience), feminist theory (hate it vs. really hate it), or the morality bitchfest (we all need to go back to church and keep our sinning hands to ourselves). Basically a lot of rubbernecking in book form but not a lot of objective study. I'm sure there are some serious papers or articles concerning the subject, as economics seems to a discipline where making money is paramount over everything else, including being humane and kind to people other than yourself. I've heard economics professors speak against things simply because they could cost money, not because there could be some ethical argument in favor of them. (No offense if you're an economics professor, just my experience and it kind of left a lasting impression.) I don't see why any moral qualms would really stop them from studying the economics of porn.

It's always way easier to sign up for something than it is to leave, and this is true outside of porn as well. Some gift cards will start automatically losing their value a certain time after they're activated. If you have ever done the 30 day trial of Amazon's Prime subscription it will automatically renew for the full annual period (at $80) if you don't cancel. I've forgotten to cancel a few subscriptions over the years, even for sites I really liked but had tired of or simply downloaded about as much as I could find hard drive space for. In an age of relatively affordable hard disk drives and fast connections more than a month of a site continuously starts to look like a waste of money.
Someone's making money, somewhere. The question is who and how far do you apply the label "porn industry," as the term "multibillion" gets thrown out a lot but without much explanation or evidence. What I've frequently read though is that a lot of profits go to non-adult cable and multimedia companies acting as distributors, or at least more than their prudish investors may know or want to know.

I think they start to sound boring after too long. Even things like the circus acts Kink.com has going on at EverythingButt start to get repetitive before their hour-long videos are over; "Anal fisting again!?"

And I'd like to know, if they do have a greater tendency to be embarrassed, what exactly makes them more embarrassed? My own theory is that even the sexualized cultures of the West--you know, the empires perpetually decaying into godless, immoral Sodom and Gomorrahs --still have a somewhat Victorian attitude towards female sexuality. That is, a sort of Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy towards the reality that women actually have natural, healthy sexual wants and desires. Even when there are expressions of female sexuality they seem to be perverted beyond belief--that for women sex is only the requisite physical act used to get something else, never an end to itself. And for all the women who genuinely seek out porn the mainstream choices still seem to be overwhelmingly male-centric, presenting the female performers as if they're professional sexual athletes with superpowered asses and vaginas (or at least as if they're on some serious performance-enhancing drugs  ). This may be fun for men to watch, but I suspect most women viewers find it a little much to enjoy, much less really discuss with enthusiasm in a porn forum. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

I think it's people like Al Goldstein who have done way more for free speech and the 1st Amendment, and who have certainly suffered more, than so many of today's "victims" claiming censorship when they're essentially disagreeing with the rules and values of an employer. Compare Goldstein being arrested for obscenity--i.e., being coerced by the state--to, say, the rather unsurprisingly homophobic opinions of a reality show star and the resulting news media kerfuffle regimen. Sadly, there are people so fucked up they seem to believe the "dirty" speech of Goldstein should not be protected, while somehow intervening in the private censorship of an individual would be perfectly fine.

I haven't watched this particular documentary but Belladonna is both established and quite honest in interviews. In 2003 she did a teary Primetime interview about her personal abuse/exploitation in the industry, though she was only 21 or 22 at the time and hardly the more emotionally mature person she seems to be now. Of course Belladonna continued to work on camera for years afterward, performing some pretty extreme content with neither apology nor "finding" religion/God in the process.
They are very shallow, coming off as sort of documentary film versions of a coffee table book--a lot to gawk at, but not necessarily much to think about. Worse, porn docs don't even seem to take the route of more mainstream films and try and address a bigger issue. Free speech, anyone? Right to privacy? How about just the pursuit of you're own personal sexual happiness? Nope, just the spectacle and shock value of a part of our culture that the authoritarian moralists refuse to even attempt to understand, or admit is actually enjoyed and sought after by much of the population. I sometimes think I'm watching some weird propaganda video from that government in The Hunger Games, with the message being "See?! This is why you perverts are so miserable! Because you waste time lusting after brief moments of meaningless pleasure. Now back to work, assholes!" "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Not porn, but I thought relevant because of how often we talk about credit card fraud. This is said to only affect shoppers in the U.S. and Canada, but the department store Target has admitted that a Black Friday hack attacked the credit card info of millions of customers, from roughly November 27 to December 15. And you thought paying for a porn site through a payment "company" headquartered in the People's Democratic Republic of Fuckyouistan was risky! Amazingly this was a hack of their POS (Point Of Sale/Piece Of Shit?) machines, not their website. One more reason to shop online, I guess? Shows you can never be too safe, though maybe a store with the name (and bright red logo) Target was a darkly ironic tip-off. I've always heard to be wary of in-store keypads that seemed to be loose and in somewhat shoddy shape...but that seems to describe the overwhelming majority of them, and this was a digital attack to make it unknown to victims.

The same could be said of all the other wild and imaginative theories about why women--only women, it seems, as the concern seems to limited to the life choices of unchaste females--get into porn. They did drugs, weren't loved enough by their parents, didn't go to enough church, etc. Granted, many of these arguments seem to be made by those with a decidedly anti-porn ax to grind but there may be some truth in them.

You're quite right, rearadmiral, and our protection of religious liberties has also afforded numerous crazies and outright frauds to take hold and spread their nonsense. How else do you explain the rise of the Mormons or even the obsessively litigious Scientologists (founded by a creepy sci-fi novelist). Granted I'm not one to condone the persecution of a minority group simply because of the difference of their beliefs--of course burning bushes, water walking, and an undead messiah aren't exactly a metric of rationality to begin with--but our tolerance of the intolerant could one day be the undoing of the liberties that are in place to protect all of us. Interestingly it's the European countries with constitutional monarchies and state churches that seem to be coming to their senses. They have far more humane social safety nets, smaller prison populations, and less preoccupation with injecting religion or "God" into every single part of life. Many of these countries even have a church tax for members--I would love to hear some typical American conservative anti-tax theocrat make an argument against that.

One question that's been bugging me since the new site was first announced: will sites/names still autolink? I find it a kind of annoying feature of the current Porn Users that you can't write a name like Nina Hartley, and not keep it plain text, like Nina Hartley, without the "Do not link" feature currently in place.

I'm sure their are weirder/funnier reasons for paying for porn. Such as, in the hilarious words of Lewis Black on looking for pictures of Janet Jackson's tit: "It's research! It's research!" I probably started thinking about this years ago looking at ALS Scan photos (before wasting the years away on video...) and how they shoot mostly in or around Maryland and they're usually at suburban homes, generally of the McMansion variety. Do the owners--or their spouses?!--really know what they do during a shoot? Of course if it was me I would let them shoot there for free (with a complimentary lifetime membership, of course) and insist that the model/All Shaven Lady pees all over my deck or bathroom.  Granted, it's probably thoughts like that that keep me from owning a house in the first place, but a man can dream! "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

I'm not too sure about porn, but it's a big thing for adult nerds; hence all the dressing up (or down! ) at Comic Con, etc. They are frequently a "sexy" take on comic and video game characters, as the trend seems to be towards hotter and hotter women dressing up, if just for an excuse to show more skin, though I'm sure the genuinely nerdy ones are the real freaks in bed. There seem to be a few sites devoted to it. Make of that what you will, as I always thought porn was about less clothing. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual. Certainly without any choice. That's the way your hardcore Commie works." - Gen. Jack D. Rippper, Dr. Stranglove | |
