What do we disagree on?

Pokemon.

[Samwise]

Damn.  Am I supposed to be pro-Pokemon or anti-Pokemon?

This is one of those threads where we should all we especially thankful that TFWSNBN is no longer around.

See, I miss the guy for the first time ever.
With his input this abortion of a thread would have been denned 4 pages ago (and imagine that I fought for 14 days to regain internet connection... and this is what I get).

I like porn and I think the women (who incidentially makes the most money in the business) are old enough to decide for themselves. I'm the same way about most forms of prostitution (in the part of the world I live in poverty is no excuse). Whatever two consenting adults do in the privacy
 of their own home is not mine nor the states business - I just wish the wouldn't post about it on gaming messageboards...

I think I would have paid a lot more attention in discrete math if the problems involved oral sex.  It really does breathe new life into the subject matter to apply it to something useful.

And I was just thinking there was too much goddamn math being used to discuss money shots.

You can't compare results like that across different studies!

Welcome to wry humor - shake hands please.

I lived with a (cycling membership) group of dancers back in the bad old days when AIDs was still the gay pneumonia.  A handful did fit the classic abuse profile.  But the most of them were mindless twits who really liked partying and fucking all night - when I bothered to ask why they'd just shrug and ask where else can someone earn that kind of money doing what they'd do anyway.  These weren't folks with much of a long range view beyond who was picking up the latest tab.

Great times.

I thought private messages were supposed to be private.

And I thought my blog was on a different site. Oh wells. Quit sending me hate mail, assbreath.

Urm...I'm as good as anyone at picking up sarcasm but with things like that it's really hard to tell.

Anyway, I would say there is a decent difference between porn star and dancer. Also notice that when porn stars get big a lot of them move to doing only girl-girl things? There is a reason for that.

[Pococurante]

What exactly is the difference?  One is live the other recorded - beyond that I see no difference.  Or do you not believe most dancers are also prostitutes?  Isn't a porn "star" just another way to sell sex services, a prostitute?

The girls I knew slid into the sexworker business - it was amazing how fast someone can justify baring boobs to friends, then baring them to strangers, then to backroom asembly-line servicing.  Every now and then one would move out saying she'd gotten an agent and was doing films.  One of them told me she looked forward to doing porn so "she'd have her nights back".  Hehe...

[voodoolily]

[Also notice that when porn stars get big a lot of them move to doing only girl-girl things? There is a reason for that.

Actually, girl-on-girl is how many young women are lured into doing porn, because it seems more vanilla than getting rammed by some dude in front of a camera. Women are recruited into it, usually by being asked on the street if they've ever done any modeling. The girl's flattered, agrees to show up, maybe does a few nudes, then gets asked if she wants to do film. She shyly declines, then gets the "it's cool, just with another girl. Nothing hardcore or anything." Then she relents and after a little while the money is too good to pass up and she doing anal before she knows what the fuck has happened.

I agree with Poco - that's why I refer to all of them as "sex workers". They are in the business of selling sex. If a chef works catering, at a restaurant or privately she's still a chef, right?

[Cheddar]

Speaking from experience?  Really, for someone who does not watch porn, nor let her SO watch porn, you sure know a lot about how the industry works.  I think you are just making up facts to justify your view on the industry!

[voodoolily]

Actually, my views on it are largely based on how the industry works. I looked at a shitload of porn when I was younger, and learned about the other stuff when I was an activist teen and read feminist authors like Andrea Dworkin. One of best girlfriends in high school's mom was the director for the Center for Prostitution Alternatives. The only reason I don't want my SO to look at it is because of what I said before - it makes me sick to my stomach to think about him getting off on other women. I know that's silly, but it just is what it is. I've never tried to use it as any kind of justification.

[Ironwood]

it makes me sick to my stomach to think about him getting off on other women.

Holy fuck.  Do you know anything about guys ?

[voodoolily]

Yes, and that's why I don't think about it. If he doesn't have a blatant demonstration of it around the house, I don't have to.

Edit: He's gotten shit about this from buddies of his, but he sees it like this: on the one hand, he can't look at porn (which he says he doesn't really give a shit about). On the other, he's marrying a hot chick who's an awesome cook and games.

[Ironwood]

And you've checked the hard drive for Encrypted and hidden folders too ?


(If you're reading this honey, of course that's not what I do.  It's just an idea...  Honey ?  Come back ?!)

[Samwise]

USB drive for the win.

[voodoolily]

Every time I've ever snooped around past boyfriends' shit I've found something I wished I hadn't. I trust him, and respect his privacy.

[Ironwood]

Hypocrisy.  It's the key to a happy relationship.

[Sauced]

Oh for fucks sake.

For the record, she told me about this before we started dating.  The reason it is a non issue is because I don't look at porn.  I don't get off on it, I find the women disgusting (and very sad), and I don't have a complex where I need to feel powerful over the woman I'm with.  Feel free to make fun of me for that, but the fact of the matter is this:  If rubbing one out to porn was an important recreational habit for me, well, she made it clear from the outset that she wasn't down with that, and that would have been that.

[Merusk]

I mock you and your entire belief structure. Your thoughts are meaningless and your opinions matter not.

There, now that that's over can we move on? No? Ok I'll be over here organizing my pron CDs.  The wife says I can have 'em, I just can't watch 'em when she or the kids are around.  Damn you all for making divorce look less attractive.  :-D

[Roac]

For the record, she told me about this before we started dating. 

For the record, no one cares about the record, since RL can't be verified.  Especially not when it's whether some random dood_2314 likes porn or not, unless the guy also claimed to be gay.  Doubly so when the guy will get in trouble for watching porn, and his SO is reading what he types.

[voodoolily]

Gay guys watch way more pr0n than straight guys, dood_2314.

[Roac]

You're an inside expert on gays now too?

[Cheddar]

Internet reputation is serious business.

And the thread just keeps getting better and better!



edit. added stuffs.

Honey, when have I ever not been the biggest fag hag here? Ninja please. I send Sobelius a fucking lovenote when I found out he was gay.

You are so close to a Margaret Cho grief title...

[Roac]

Honey, when have I ever not been the biggest fag hag here?

Heh, I know.  I just find it amusing that a woman who has a love of porn-fanatical gays (and proud of it), and an apparent personal history of porn-love, has control issues when it comes to your SO looking at a couple dirty pics.  Ironwood was spot on.  Please continue.

[Paelos]

To the women who think their SO doesn't beat off to porn...what do you think he is beating off to? If you think he's not beating off AT ALL, well, I won't even bother with how far out of touch with reality you are. You're in denial at that point. He is beating off, I can assure you of that. He is doing it with either porn or something in his head. And if you are touchy about the "cheating" aspect of beating off to other women, YOU CAN'T CONTROL OUR MINDS.

[Cheddar]

Dance puppets dance!



Teehee I love how our avatars dance together Paelos.  Then again shiny string amuses me also.

[Sauced]

So, help me get this right.  This is where I post song lyrics, right?

[Paelos]

I just wanted to see how many times I could put "beat off" into a post while making a point.
