If men don’t want their women to look like porn stars, why do porn stars have to look like porn stars?

“Porn stars’ starts to sound funny if you say it too many times.

Re, the Lajeunesse study: it was a survey of 20 men, from one university I think, which is an awfully low sample size to base any broad sociological conclusions on, I’m afraid.

“…beginning with their first experience with pornography, which for most boys happens by the age of 10.”

When I was in college, I discovered that virtually all of my male friends had some variation on this story: “When I was {10, 11, 12} I discovered my {father’s, uncle’s, older brother’s} stash of old Playboys…”

For me, it was around age 12, on the upper shelf of my father’s closet. Mind you, this was all before the internet; I imagine things play out differently these days.

Oh, Playboy. You were the go-to wank material for entire generations of boys; how far hast thou fallen?

Wow. I could stare at that photo all day. Thank you!

(And yes, the article is cool, but I suspect most of your readers already agree with it… ;) )

The results seem to be the same for marijuana use. The fact is, that if porn was dangerous, it would be easier to prove. Likewise if marijuana was addictive and dangerous it would not be so hard to find evidence.
