The Perils of Porn

I did not grow up with the internet, so my discovery of porn was a lot more innocent then it is for today’s youth.  Before the limitless access we now have, you weren’t exposed to porn unless you actively sought it out. You couldn’t just sit back and type a few letters on your computer, but instead had to transform into Nancy Drew and wait for an empty house. My dad either wasn’t that pervy or part of the CIA, so I never found anything.  It wasn’t  until my best friend stole a tape from her friend’s dad when we were 13 that I saw my first porn.  It was from the 70’s and called Flesh and Laces Part 2.  I never did get to see Part 1 and I have always felt a deep emptiness about that.

Now I wouldn’t say the movie was tame, but it wasn’t demented.  There was some girl on girl, some blowies, some num nums, and a little oopsie doopsies… but it wasn’t like I felt that I saw anything that out of the ordinary.

Fast forward 16 years to post-internet porn and the delightful time I had viewing the progression of the industry.  It was a weird scene… we can start there.  A group of people hanging out smoking pot, drinking, and some hard core porn projected on the wall.  Now I will tell you what is not a good idea.  Being high, free brownies, and double anal penetration.  I guess the guy who lived their had a pretty decent collection and as I plowed through the titles with such charms as Fist Fucking Mania, and 3 Dicks One Pussy I started to travel down a rabbit hole of horror.

The human body is not meant for modern porn.

So here is my problem with what is going on with porn.  Not only is it creating an impossible standard for any woman to and forcing a lot of “No honey, I am not going use a 2-foot dildo that goes through my body and out my mouth” arguments….  But there is no way these women are enjoying what they are doing.  In fact, I am willing to bet the men involved are aware of this.  Porn these days isn’t just pushing boundaries, it looks extremely painful and often times disgusting.  Not in a raunchy fun lets get kinky way, but in a “I got poo particles stuck between my teeth” kind of way.

The turn-on is the degradation; the fact that a woman would stoop so low just to please you.

What ever happened to being turned-on because she is nice enough to let you look at her naked body?
