It's the left that is responsible for what happened to Miss America, not the right. It's the constant onslaught of gender ideologues who reject the concept of differenes between the sexes and the media, most of which is on the left that made the Miss America pageant fold like a house of cards. your "Trump is a racist aaarghtafaalgjlagh" outburst is a deflection from the facts in this case and would seem to be evidence of trump derangement syndrome. | |

The rights under your constitution are not absolute. The state can enact reasonable laws that curb rights, for example you cannot own a fully automatic machine-gun, you cannot marry your sister, you cannot libel or slander people with impunity, you cannot go into a crowded place and shout fire and cause a panic that kills people. Choosing not to run porn ads doesn't seem like too chilling a curb on speech. Now if it was a ban on porn searches then that would be different but then porn searches on google are largely useless as they usually bring up tube sites rather than actual websites that produce porn...thank the flying spaghetti monster for places like pornusers | |

I figured that at least some of the subjects of Ilovethebeach's videos were plants because an inordinate amount of them seem to have massive boobs. Also the videos on that site are "too good" if you know what I mean, 5 minutes or more focused on the same person without being spotted? Very little camera shake, zooming in and out, all without suspicious looks? Anyway, in any case, they are being filmed in public areas and so aren't subject to the same protections as if they were on private property. | |

Can you give some examples of bundled software that would add up to that much? If you mean stuff like MS Office, you can get free equivalents like OpenOffice that do just as good a job. At least when you build yourself you can keep things lean and not have your computer stuffed with bloatware. If you open up a typical Dell pc you'd see that they use the cheapest parts possible and the cooling tends to be as basic as possible. I built a gaming pc for my nephew recently, the parts and OS together came to about $800 and it would better than an equivalently priced Dell. Of course I didn't charge for for my labour and time which would have put the price up | |

It's disappointing but shouldn't be seen as a surprise really. The american justice system is in thrall to the major corporations there. The corporations can afford the best and biggest law firms and the judges themselves almost always seem to side with the corporation over the individual or the public good unless you are extremely lucky in finding an independent minded judge. Ever since the courts decided that corporations could be regarded as persons under the law their power has grown and grown. Their ability to lobby and shovel money to politicians and political parties cannot be curtailed and thus they have effective control over politics and justice, over the legislators and over those who interpret legislation and how it is applied to the law. How are private citizens meant to battle against this concentration of power? It makes a mockery of what America is meant to stand for. It's not just America where this happens of course but because America is the biggest economy on the planet, what happens there affects everybody. Americans are going to have to realize that the real enemy isn't Iran or North Korea or some other nebulous outside threat, the real enemies are the political class, the justice system and most of all corporate interests. | |

And in Ireland we walk on the footpath (or "de footpat" if you want the correct pronunciation ) and we drive on the road. There are a couple of other Americanisms that slightly wreck my head like "math" instead of maths. Or "two thousand thirteen" instead of two thousand AND thirteen | |

The reason for that is that there is basically 2 manufacturers left in the HDD business, Seagate and Western Digital. They bought out the HDD manufacturing business of most of their competitors. All the other so-called manufacturers buy hard disks from WD or Seagate, put their own enclosures around them, some proprietary back-up software on the disk and stamp it with their own logo. Unless you're getting a knocking sound from the drive (which indicates a problem with the read/write heads touching the disk) then the problem is usually solvable by taking the disk out of the enclosure and putting it in a different enclosure or slapping it into a spare bay in a pc. @graymane - If you don't mind me saying, I think you're being overly cautious about data theft and hacking. Starting and stopping external drives in the manner you seem to be describing isn't going to do much for their health and is probably a more likely cause for data loss than hacking would be. | |

I'd imagine pornusers would be blocked, after all it has porn in its name What this will do is force people to use proxies. Already the UK and Irish governments have been trying to block piratebay for years without much success and TPB has dozens of proxy sites now. There was another message board post I saw yesterday which summed up things really well. Since I agree with it, I'll copy it and save myself from typing everything out "they can't block the pirate bay. How are they going to block millions of porn sites! The truth is that they can't. I don't mean they 'shouldn't' or they 'won't do it effectively' - I mean *they can't filter the internet and still have it resemble the internet. There are really two separate issues here, filtering *content* like porn and filtering *sites* (that have porn content). ISPs cannot filter content. Why not? Even if they monitor every byte that goes between your computer and a site on the internet, they can't stop encryption. The same type of encryption that protects us when we buy something from Amazon.co.uk or check our g-mail. At the core of encryption, we've got math problems that are computationally hard to solve. And we're decades away from that changing (if it ever does). Anyone who wants to, can encrypt data between themselves and someone else. The ISP can't read it. The government can't read it. It doesn't even take prior sharing of private keys or anything - and everything can be observed, it doesn't matter. Encryption is awesome. If the block all 'unrecognized' traffic (this, they could do) - it would break the internet. Everything would be sent encrypted. Logging into sites would be an invitation for everyone to sniff your password. Buying anything online would be the same as giving your credit card number away. If they don't - they'll never be able to stop people from downloading/uploading/sharing encrypted content. And that encrypted content can be *anything*. The other issue is blocking individual sites that allow content they don't approve of. There are two ways you can attempt to do this....maintain a list of every single site in the world that contains content you don't like (blacklisting) and prevent people from connecting to them.....or, maintain a list of every single site in the world that is 'safe' to visit and blocking everything else (whitelisting). Blacklisting can't work. And neither can whitelisting.... All anyone needs to do is connect to a server that is not on the blacklist and then make the request from there to the blacklisted site. Easy as pie. VPNs/proxies/ssh tunnels - I paid 2 euro per month for a US based server so I could get the US version of Netflix before it was available in Ireland.....and there are countless ones available free, online. There are legitimate uses for VPNs and proxies. If you disallow them - you've fundamentally broken the internet. Businesses in Ireland depend on them. If your whitelist includes them - anyone can access any site they want by connecting through one of these sites first. Besides all of that - many sites are easily classified as either porn or not porn. Many sites I visit are primarily not-porn, but have adult content. It would take an effort larger than the UK could muster to actively police all of these sites to block just the sections of content....and any site that offers https:// connections prevents any content-based filtering from occurring. At it's very core - this *cannot* work. They can't filter the internet. It's just not possible. Physically, logically, this entire debate is really, really pointless, because it can't be done. It's not even 'really impractical' - this is 'impossible'. This is like passing a law that is going to 'block gravity' or order the sun to stop shining so much." | |

Before we start getting too off-topic here A post I saw on another forum really pointed out what will happen with this block "There's nothing simple about having an opt in, incidentally. Because it also requires the setting up of a database of harmful sites to be blocked. And that raises all sorts of questions regarding who decides which sites are to blocked, what criteria they use, whether sites can appeal their blocking, whether the list is publicly available etc. You don't see anything wrong with putting control of what sites can be seen in the hands of a few individuals?" How many thousands of porn sites will they have to check through? Inevitably some will get through the block and someone will sue the government. Also, I'm not one for believing in conspiracy theories but I think there is a legitimate concern over a government deciding what sites can be seen. So today its porn that they go after, next will it be protest groups? or animal rights organisations? or political blogs? consumer-rights groups? I don't know if I'd trust any government not to try and block opposing groups. We're getting into the area of thought-crime here. And also, what if someone releases the names of those that are on the non-blocked list? "Well we'll hire Mr Smith because he's not a pornhound, but Mr Jones is a dirty dawg so we won't hire him" etc etc | |

I can see why you might assume that. With regard to physical distrubition of erotica/porn regulations are still pretty strict in Ireland. Hell you couldn't even buy Playboy in Ireland till about 20 years ago, the most you could get from a newsagents was H&E (Health and Efficiency), an extremely tame nudism magazine (perhaps some of the UK posters here might remember the thrill of getting one of these as a teenager lol). About 20 years ago, when the various scandals surrounding the Catholic church broke there was a massive disillusionment with the church. Around that time homosexuality was legalised, contraception was allowed to be made available over the counter and not just with a doctors prescription and sex shops were legalised. Abortion is still a hot topic with mainly people over 50 objecting under any circumstance and those under 50 more tolerant. Church attendances since the scandals have fallen dramatically with most attendances being made up of pensioners. Online porn has rather flown under the radar as it were in Ireland with no regulation as to the distribution or consumption of it (although I think there are harsh restrictions on production here, but its too small a market to sustain local production anyway). Everyone I know uses porn and certainly until now there's been no discussion in political circles about restricting it, sort of a "if you don't talk about it, it doesn't exist" attitude if you know what I mean. | |

I'm from Ireland so this doesn't directly affect me....yet. Usually if the UK does something then our government follows suit like a bunch of sheep. This is a curb on peoples freedom. Governments know that ordinary people are reluctant to speak up in favour of porn so they can bring in this type of censorship without much protest. The same goes for when they say they are monitoring everyone's email and web traffic so as to "prevent terrorism", governments are taking away civil liberties and there is barely a murmur about it. On the bbc news today David Cameron was talking about banning "violent porn" but just how do you define violent porn? Is spanking included? How about bdsm? Rough Sex? This kind of law gives police and judges wide powers to define what is or isn't "violent" and your fate could rest on the whim of some old decrepit magistrate. Another disturbing part of this is how politicians and trashy tabloid gossip-mongers like The Daily Mail link normal pornography with child pron. In the BBC article one member of parliament said, "filters would make a difference, saying that the killers of schoolgirls April Jones and Tia Sharp had accessed legal pornography before moving on to images of child abuse." That kind of assertion that there could be a causal link between normal porn and child pron and thence to child murder is absolutely outrageous. Its ridiculous that someone using logic as faulty as that could be responsible for implementing legislation. | |

In the UK the Office of Fair Trading or perhaps Trading Standards would be the closest but I've not heard of anyone using them with regards to internet porn. If I was having a problem with a porn site I'd go to the billing company first and my credit card company second. | |

I think there's some mixup in terminology here. Current accounts are accounts used for normal day-to-day banking, they can be used with checks (although thats getting pretty rare), they are mostly used with atm cards and online banking. Banks are really fucking around with customers these days, the latest ruse is to try and convince people to switch from having an overdraft to having a short-term loan, which is generally more expensive for customers and less flexible for small businesses. | |

Conversely I've never had an internal drive fail but have had several externals fail. Externals are just internal drives in an enclosure with usually a seperate power supply. Given the work that they have to do, hdd's are incredibly reliable, what happens is that sometimes a bad batch comes out from a factory and that gives a brand a bad name for a while. The only HDD manufacturers left are Seagate and Western Digital, some people swear by Seagate, some people swear by WD but in real terms, aside from anecdotal evidence there's little to differentiate the two. | |

And if you go for a desktop get someone to build it for you, that way you'll get better parts and better value for money. Plus with a decent case you'll get lots of bays for installing multiple hard drives giving you major storage options. Although, why make it an either or situation? You could have both a relatively inexpensive laptop for mobile use with a decent desktop as well. | |

Its because of the social stigma regarding prostitution and indeed the negative perceptions of sex in general fostered by the monotheistic religions over the years that have ingrained a "sex is bad" attitude amongst so much of the general public. I don't frequent prostitutes but I have no problem with anybody using them, same with porn. As long as both adults are consensual then then why should there be a problem with it? Its time society got over it and accepted sex, porn, prostitution as being normal human activities and quit being so uptight and "holier than thou" *rant over* | |

On first installation a disk asks what file format you want to use, NTFS or FAT32, NTFS being the default usually, perhaps you just misremembered. I did a search on the WD smartware software and it seems like other people are having similar problems to you, it looks like it may be frequently backing things up, god only knows if its affecting anything else http://community.wdc.com/t5/WD-Software/...-software/td-p/17358 If it was my disk I'd uninstall the WD smartware tool, but since it isn't mine what you do is up to you If you want rid, then Start => Control Panel => Programs and Features Don't blame me if it all goes wrong however | |

Danny Healy-Rae is an utter cretin and does not represent the majority view in Ireland, Healy-Rae family are considered a laughing stock of the country. Also it may not be a surprise that Councillor Danny Healy-Rae owns a bar. There is absolutely zero chance of these permits actually being issued. Kerry men are the butt of jokes throughout the rest of Ireland for being thickos, heres some for you How do you recognize a Kerryman on an oil rig? He's the one throwing crusts of bread to the helicopters. Have you heard about the Kerryman who cheated CIE? He bought a return ticket to Dublin and didn't go back. A Kerryman rang Aer Lingus and asked how long it took to fly from Dublin to London? "Just a minute sir", said the girl on the desk. "Thank you", said the Kerryman, and hung up. Have you heard about the Kerryman whose library was burned down? Both books were destroyed, and worse still, one hadn't even been coloured in. How do you make a Kerryman laugh on a Monday morning? Tell him a joke on Friday evening. A Kerryman was attacked by a robber and put up a spirited fight before parting with his purse which contained only 15c. "You mean to tell me you put up all that struggle, all for 15c?" "No," said the Kerryman, "I thought you were after the E50 i've hidden in my left shoe". What do you call a Kerryman on a bicycle? A dope peddler. A fellow was explaining to a Kerryman how nature sometimes compensates for a person's deficiences. "For example", he told him, "if a man is deaf, he may have keener sight, and if a man is blind, he may have a very keen sense of smell". "I think i see what you mean", said the Kerryman, "I've often noticed that if a man has one short leg, then the other one is always a bit longer". A Kerryman went to insure his car and paid E20 to have it insured against fire. "For E10 more sir", said the agent, "you can insure it against theft also". "That would be a waste of money", said the Kerryman, "who would want to steal a burning car?" Kerry workman to his workmate: "Don't come down that ladder, Mick. I've taken it away". A Kerryman got a job as a lumberjack, but try as he might, he couldn't meet his quota of fifty trees a day. By chance he saw an ad in a shop window for chainsaws 'guaranteed to fell 60 trees a day'. So he bought one, but the best he could manage was forty trees a day. So he took it back to the shop and complained that there must be something wrong with it. "Let me look at it", said the man in the shop. So he took the chainsaw and switched it on. "What's that noise?" said the Kerryman. A Kerryman wrote the following letter to the editor of a newspaper: Dear Sir, Last week I lost my gold pocket watch, so yesterday I put in an ad in your LOST AND FOUND columns. Last night I found the watch in the trousers of my other suit. God bless your newspaper. | |

Its not a bios that I recognise, however the following link will show you how to find your Bios version. http://pcsupport.about.com/od/tipstricks/ht/biosverwin.htm Just one point to note when you are following the instructions, because you have windows 7 you won't have a Run box, instead just type regedit into the "search programs and files" box and hit enter, then continue following the instructions from there. Nearly all Bios's are made by either American Megatrends or Phoenix Technologies, all you need to find is which one it is and the version of that bios then. In any case, I'm not convinced its a bios issue but its no harm to gather evidence in any case. I'm not convinced that your disk is borked either like Ragingbuddhist said although his point about FAT32 is the first thought that came into my head too. FAT32 is rarely used now, NTFS has completely taken over from it. FAT32 has file size limitations which means its not ideal these days. One solution would be to get another disk (if you can't afford another then maybe you could borrow a disk or disks off someone?), copy over the files you want to keep and then format the disk as NTFS, copy everything back and then see how it goes from there. The WD Smartware tool isn't one I've used. I used to have WD disks until a couple of years ago, but I've never used that tool. I found WD externals to be clunky, noisy and the enclosures to be not very well designed. I switched over to Samsung 2tb disks which I've found to be much better overall. The disks inside the samsung externals are actually made by Seagate which I find to be more reliable than WD (there are basically only 2 hard disk manufacturers left in the world, WD and Seagate, they then sell hard disks to other manufacturers who make their own enclosures. Mybook is WD's own brand of enclosure) Most external hdd brands have management software, I usually refer to it as crapware since Windows can handle file transfer, file management, security and all other tasks quite well without any other crap sitting on top of it. I'd ditch the WD tool but thats entirely up to you. Another point regarding the tool is that sometimes software can have unintended effects on other seemingly unrelated software. For example a few years ago I had Norton internet security installed on a pc and any time there was an intrusion detection from the firewall the sound in my speakers would go funny. I got rid of norton and put other security software on and speakers were fine again. Why did that problem happen? Who knows, some shitty coding in norton I'd assume. The WD tool on your external hdd may be affecting how Windows interoperates with the hdd and slowing down everything from discovery when the pc is starting up to file management when the pc is running. Thats the most obvious logical theory to me atm anyway. | |

either that or type it in Notepad and then paste to the message block, notepad is plaintext so it takes out anything odd that might be in the word processing program. It seems needlessly complicated but there may be some reason why he's not typing directly into the box. As for Mad magazine, it has recently reappeared at my local newsagents so I've gotten the last few issues. Sure, some of the jokes were corny but thats almost what I expected, part of the charm of Mad. I don't have a nostalgic tie to it so I didn't get hit with a "not as good as it used to be reflex". Really, not many things are as good as they used to be, current music is mostly shit And as for the price, it sounds like the OP is getting ripped off, it only cost me about 5 euro and stuff is usually more expensive in Ireland. | |

I think I can go 1 better than that Last year I stopped contributions going into an investment fund I had going with a bank. Cue a couple of terse letters from them telling me of the dire consequences of my actions and that I should promptly start paying them again, which I naturally ignored because I knew I was in the right. Then a few days later I got a call from an "investment fund manager" at their head office asking me why I had stopped payments. I then explained to him that in the last year the taxes levied on my fund were MORE than the interest that the fund had earned, I said to him "Have you heard the phrase throwing good money after bad", which is what paying more money into the fund would be. "Ah I see" he said followed by him blathering on for a while about how switching to this account or that account would be better. I explained that I wasn't interested in doing any new business with his bank, that the fund managers (who take a hefty "management charge" every year) should have actually been managing and advising me proactively rather than just sitting there taking their fees and doing nothing. | |

Are you referring to ATK there, I recall seeing something on another thread discussing the shortcomings of it. Its a site that I've seen get high scored reviews and praise and I've checked it out numerous times and have yet to subscribe to it. Given its description, its a site I should like but when I look at it, I'm just not particularly enticed. In the sample pics a lot of the models seem to be drenched in harsh light which is not very forgiving to amateur models and also a lot of the posing seems stereotypically porny for want of a better word, like they're shooting what they think the typical porn fan wants to see. Just as a general comment for the atk-type sites I wish they'd tell the models that they don't need to eyeball the camera in EVERY shot, it is permissable to look away. I also wish the models would either do a proper striptease or else ignore the camera and do a voyeur type set, just don't do a half-assed strip with trout-pout stares at the camera throughout the set. This has kind of gotten off topic but quality is also a part of getting value for money! | |

Its a good question and a fair line of thought to examine. I think that can depend on the charisma of the model and the creativity of the photographer/videographer. I think where you have a situation where a model is booked for x amount of time and the photographer/videographer wants to do as many sets of photos and video clips as possible in that limited time then even the prettiest model could get samey. A problem with some sites is that they use the same location, the same outfits, the same lighting...but they do this with multiple models so all their sets end up looking samey over the course of multiple models. However where the photographer/videographer mixes things up in regards to locations, indoor/outdoor, set design, lighting, clothing etc then this freshens things up. If depends on the creativity and skill of the person producing the photos and videos, models can look very different in different locations and under different lighting conditions. Also, the enthusiasm and charisma of the model matters, if they are at ease with themselves and with the photographer/videographer then they can be confident to do different things on camera and do things from experience rather than needing to always take direction. When you have a model/actress who displays these attributes then its a pleasure to see them again and again. As well, if you follow a model/actress over the course of several years then they can change quite a bit, weight gets gained or lost, hair colour and length changes, they have a pubic bush then they shave then they grow out a landing strip etc etc so the body definitely doesn't stay the same. To add to that bear in mind that a lot of people gravitate to certain body types or facial features or whatever so certain other body types or facial features won't appeal to them. There is such a variation in body types that even someone who likes multiple types will find that there are a number of types that don't appeal. Wow, this answer ended up being longer than I thought it would be but thats because its a thought-provoking question | |

I subscribed to ddf a while back just to get the Wendy Star updates but the way they had her done up made her look pretty awful and the same goes for the other models. It put me right off ever subbing to that site again unless they completely change their style. | |

I'd pretty much agree with that, and I don't think its a sign or age Oftentimes I'll check out a site and see some models I like but because they only have a set or two or a video or two each I won't bother subscribing because it just isn't worth it. I'd rather have 20 sets of a model I really liked rather than have 1 set each from 20 models, of who I might really like maybe 2 or 3. Some sites seem to have this idea that they must churn through as many models as possible whereas I think there is a lot of customers out there who like to see the same girl in different outfits or different situations or whatever. I'd agree with Bubbagump about the tattoos, piercings, plastic tits, collagen lips etc, just don't like them. Fake tan is another thing that pisses me off, fair enough if a model has a natural tan but some sites, like ddfbusty are terrible for having their models with too much makeup plastered on and with having an awful orange skin colour | |

My list would be fairly varied, some softcore, some hardcore, some current, some out of the business. I could list a load more but just off the top of my head In no particular order an all that! Alison Angel - She'll probably be always on my list, extremely cute and probably the ideal body type imo. Didn't look at her pictures and vids for ages but recently "rediscovered" her. Polly B - My current favourite met-art model, blonde, freckled, puffy nipples, simply gorgeous. Lucy-Anne Brooks - Of Only-tease, St Mckenzies et al, one of the most prolific softcore models around. Doesn't even go full nude but is gorgeous and has the cutest small boobs ever. Wendy Star aka Westy, Jannette etc. - Polish big-boob model, ok she's got funny teeth but she's still hot and has fantastic big boobs. Petra Mis - Another big-boob model, this time from Czech Republic. Only spent a couple of years in the porn business but was extremely hot imo. Rico Yamaguchi aka Rina Nakanishi - Former member of pop group AKB48, only did a dozen JAV movies but she was HOT and always very enthusiastic. Yuma Asami - One of the veterans of JAV, she's been in hundreds of movies but is still hot and always gives a good performance. Kotono - Retired from the JAV business but extremely cute and has gorgeous breasts with big puffy nipples. Kotone Amamiya - Very beautiful JAV actress, does a lot of nakadashi movies which is a plus. Bella Baby aka Bella Shepard and other names - Beautiful Czech model, always looks like she's really into fucking, even though she has some tattoos (which normally I dislike) she makes it on my current list. | |

Well I guess the dialogue in most american porn is awful (what little dialogue there is) but I agree that kind of stuff that you allude to is risible. | |

I had a quick look at their site and it doesn't seem american-unfriendly (or any other type of unfriendly ) but neither does it seem to be particularly transparent or user-friendly. Taking your last point first, it seems that they used to use DRM (an immediate no-no in my opinion) until 2010. There is an announcement on their news page and forum "Ladies and gentlemens, let us introduce you to new amazing featured format available for download MP4! No more DRM - and that's mean no more server licenses needed, you can use any player you like." Regarding joining the site, there seem to be a number of options available. There seems to be a monthly join option where you get 180 minutes of downloadable video, every month you stay a member you get an additional 36 minutes every month. There are yearly streaming and download options. There appear to be scene by scene and movie by movie streaming and downloading options as well. Nowhere on the site can I find upfront information on the PRICE. Also if you try to join or buy a movie they want you to set up an account first which means they are harvesting your email address even if you decide not to join the site or buy/stream a movie/scene, thats shady in my opinion. Also they seem to have some kind of weird credit card affirmation process which means you don't get an immediate download/stream. If you look at their support forum there are all kinds of concerns raised http://www.btsporn.com/forumdisplay.php?f=68 The site seems to focus on anal which isn't my interest really but even if it was, their business practices and lack of transparency would put me off having anything to do with them. | |

It is indeed...but while lactation doesn't do much for me, I have seen a couple of japanese porn films which starred lactating actresses. So when the OP put up this thread I checked the main AV sites and I found 1 lactation/nakadashi film on Actionjav and I figured if anyone would do this type of thing it would be the Japanese! So, one film out of hundreds/thousands, not sure if thats worth a subscription OP. | |

Yes, we've conversed on the regional pricing thread once or twice I too used to subscribe to 5 or 6 a month and for a most of 2011-12 I was down to zero sites. I've currently at 3 sites now which is probably the most I've subscribed to for 3 years. All of those sites are ones that have had some form of regional pricing but by dint of vigilance and some luck I've gotten on special offers. The ordinary Joe Blows who don't frequent sites like PU and TBP are the ones getting royally ripped off. But...as the thread OP says, the value for money NOW, even with regional pricing is so far in excess of what it was only little more than a decade ago. I started getting porn in the late 90's and I'd get maybe 5 or 6 magazines a month and they'd be about £8 each. Videos would be about £30-40 for a good 4 hour tape and you'd feel privileged to find a good one! I hear some social commentators complain now about the availability of porn corrupting young people, and that is a genuine concern. But, porn is and always has been rated 18+, it is up to parents to make sure that they're kids are not getting a hold of porn, you can't blame legal consumers of porn for what the rest of society does. For adults, more people seem to be realising that porn is not an essentially harmful thing, and that if its treated in an open and honest way that it can be beneficial rather than harmful to a relationship. Far from being an issue with my other half, me getting off to porn is part of the relationship, so much so that she regularly buys me books of erotic photography as xmas presents | |
