I was just online searching for some *ahem* "stimulating material" and I was just struck by how terrible porn is.
Here's the scenerio, you take some naturally pretty girls who want to be famous, have a drug problem and/or are a single mother, desperate for money. For this money and attention they are willing to bleach the hair on their head, wax the rest of it off, starve themselves and have things surgically added or removed, put on skimpy clothes and snarl in front of the camera. If their drug habit or need for attention is serious enough they will show off their wax job and have sex for the cameras. Since the people paying the photographers are men, the women will be posed like they are vessles that hold the vagina and breasts, which are displayed prominently, ready for use.
Since this porn is so redily available anonymously and free online, men are using it as a regular source of "stimulation." If the men are started out young looking at this stuff, these are what they are conditioning themselves to be turned on by. Mix in a few strippers and TV shows with only women who look like this, and the men start getting it in their heads that this is normal, and an average woman, pretty, but who's got more important things to think about than only being appealing to men, is considered less attractive than normal.
And you would think that this means things are good for the girls who's first goal is to be appealing to men, but it's quite the opposite. When you look like that men will "like" you no matter what kind of person you are. If you are attractive they will proposition to you, as if you would ever be interested in them, and they will behave as if they are willing to do you the favor of letting you satisfy them.
Porn ruins sex. This whole "hook-up" culture was just coming into fruition when I was in college, and I practiced it. Far from "free-love" it is extremely lonely, you have the affection for one night, but you have to be very calculated the day after, being sure not to be too affectionate, and be prepared to be treated with less respect than you would treat an average person, instead of a little mutual appreciation for giving each other some fun.
And now the younger generation has this "hook-up culture" as their dating scene. What a tragedy! Women's sexuality is being completely ignored in this type of culture. It disgusts me because in my fantasies, the world is a very sexually open place, where we can all just have sex with each-other instead of having wars. But the way things are is so perverted and twisted, instead of connecting with eachother we are coldly, mechanically, stimulating each-others genitals to produce orgasms. Instead of having love affairs we have "fuck-buddies."
I don't know how I will raise my children to view sex. I want them to feel its clean and natural, but I dont want them participating in a culture where sex is void of all emotion. Who knows, maybe fraternities will be outlawed by then.
HILARIOUS SIDE NOTE: After washing my "assiting device" I put it somewhere to dry and couldn't find it. That would be embarrassing if I forgot about it
