I'll take that back. You can never see enough slim, young, attractive women who love the attention they get from being nude/having sex.

Most guys don't think they're addicted till they try and quit.

The only benifit I have from porn is that most consumer tech is driven by the porn industry.

VCRs, camcorders, and the internet have all made the advances they have because of porn.

Personally, I don't really "get" porn. I'd rather look at my naked wife and be able to touch her. Luckily she lets me whenever I want to.

Yup. The ability to play porn at home on VCRs in private was a major reason a lot of people bought VCRs.

And people love to tape themselves having sex. The early users of the first camcorders drove the indusrty for this reason.

Lastly, there was no need to swear.

It is true, VCR's make it because of porn.

I assume it is also true about camcorders because people can shoot low budget porn.

while i don't doubt you, i find it hard to believe that porn was the driving force of the VCR industry.

Before VCR's you had to go to theatres to view porn.

Imagine the possibilities from watching porn from your own home

I used to be addicted to porn when I was younger (14-15-16)...

I think I used to visit stileproject like 2 times a day to see if there was an update.. hehe... otherwise I remember wasting nights trying to dl "good videos" off GNUtella...

Looking back, I think it was kind of funny... it introduced me to sex anyway.

Sometimes I just enjoy an episode of milfhunter cause the bad acting cracks me up

I voted no, not addicted. It disturbs me that I get E.Mail from them, trying to tempt me into their money sceme. I realize that the way they are doing is wrong!

You didn't have to worry about getting "shot" in the back of the head at a theater?

I'm torn between "You can never get enough porn" and "When does it become an addiction?"

It's like pizza - every once in a while, I just constantly crave it, but then sometimes I can go months without missing it...

(The analogy was not meant to be understood as "porn is like pizza - the more cheese the better"!!!)

Well I guess if you spend lots of money on porn, have a hard time having sex with a real person without porn, then you gots a problem.

I don't think he was pointing fingers (or sticks ), I think he was giving examples of when someone has too much porn.

I bought a bunch of ex-rentals a few months ago, with mixed moviegenres (most b-rated action) . The collection contained 3 porn movies and they were pretty bad Pumping Irene, tropical Nights and another title..oh yeah Hot teens, but because they were all movies from the 80's they sucked and I watched them in FF. I cant remember viewing a scene without FF

In 80's porn, all men have moustaches, you see a lot of actionshots of male bodies in 80's porn and body hair is abundant. There is also a lot of talking between the actors before a 'scene', to get ppl in the mood.

anyway, what I am trying to say is that todays porn is pretty violent compared to old porn. -anal sex, facial cumshots and fisting seem to have gained popularity in todays pornodictionary. It's okay to get off I guess but is pretty distant from what my own sex life is about. It's like a meatshow.

My roommate d/ls porn like none other and keeps it all on an external HD. His theory is that his sons will be looking for it one day, like he used to look for his dad's porn magazines. Welcome to the future...
