Women Who Like Porn Will Destroy Civilization

• Gender Studies

Are you a woman who enjoys pornography?

Don't you know there's something, well, wrong with you?

How can you engage in such regressive, male behavior.

Why aren't you watching the Lifetime Channel (is it still called that I don't have TV, even cable TV?)?

Why are you destroying Western Civilization?

Not that I think anything akin to the above.

From Amy Sohn's review of Pornified : How Pornography Is Transforming Our Lives, Our Relationships, and Our Families .

The book's biggest shortcoming is Paul's one-sided examination of the effect of porn on women. Most of her female subjects are married to men who became addicted to porn, and they have a right to be angry. But the few pro-porn female subjects she profiles are portrayed as deeply damaged ''people pleasers.'' Paul never gives credence to the many women who enjoy consuming porn, alone or with partners. ''Perhaps women who choose to participate in or consume pornography are making their own 'choices,' '' she writes. ''But rather than make choices based on a regressive male ideal of sexuality and limited options, they could make choices based on something beyond body parts and financial desperation.''

I think pornography is a lovely thing. Less offensive than violece. When I watch most action films I see pornography for people who get off on destruction, but with better acting. I'm not a port addict, but I do enjoy it on like a weekly basis. My wife and I watch it together sometimes to get in the mood to do it. Is porn insulting to women? Not good porn, because in good porn they are the stars of the show and the men are nothing more than faceless fuck rods. Men are not exhulted in pornography. They make goofy faces, and they are only there becuase when heterosexuals view a penis and vagina having fun together, they get turned on.

Gee, I'm a 58 years young lady married to one wonderful man for 35 years! :-) Both my husband and I read and watch porn and have since very early in our marriage. It makes our sex lives even MORE exciting...plus well..it's FUN!! I see nothing wrong with it whatsoever. What I DO find wrong with television and movies in general is the horrible violence...killings, murder, gruesome stuff and these dreadful "medical shows" that only serve to scare people and kids! The naked body is beautiful, and my husband and I have never worn clothing at home during the warm months of the year, nor on our remote property. Um...I should mention that another man has lived with us for 24 years and is considered my "second" husband...even though I cannot "legally" marry a second man. He also watches some porn with us or reads it. In fact, we probably read more good porn that actually watch in on TV or movies as so much porn is totally UNLIKE real life and real love-making. Since I never had kids around, I don't know what effect porn would have on young children, but would advice that porn be something for adults to view...not kids. As a kid, though..growing up in the 50's, I recall how little girls were dressed....just short dresses..VERY short...panties, cute little socks and shoes. The dresses always seemed to blow up in the air, and I do recall the little boys often pulling the girl's panties aside to "look" or grown men pulling them down and gently stroking. This happened to me a lot as it did to most little girls of that era...although no one was raped as I recall. Men were content to look or touch gently. I don't know how much this touching affected my adult sexualiy as my Dad and Mom often slept naked with me and gently stroked my body and "special" place....until I breathed hard and finally cried out in my orgasm (which I think happened when I was three or four). I LOVED oral sex and learned at an early age how to please my Dad and LOVED doing it. However, there was NO PORN in our home, and I never suffered any bad effects from Dad and Mom's touching. In fact, I think it helped in my marriage as I never had any "hang-ups" about nudity, allowing my hubby to watch me masturbate, never wearing panties or bra even when going out, etc. LOL Maybe we never really NEEDED "porn" as we invented our own REAL porn. Oh well...just an observation from a VERY HAPPY LADY who feels TOTALLY LOVED and care for by her husband and her lover. By the way, I AM a homemaker and proud of it and have never/would never work "outside the home". I do feel the man should be the wage earner and head of the household. It makes me VERY angry to see these silly women entering the job force...taking jobs away from men who REALLY need them. I am content to be a homemaker and LOVE LOVING my hubby and my lover in EVERY way. CatLady

I love to watch porn and I do it almost once every few days but I don't like to see my boyfriend watching them, actually he is so innocent he wouldn't even if I asked him to ... I'm sick of these girls ... it's not their fault it's my fault I shouldn't have been born into this world, good and bad, pleasure and pain, clean and unclean are so mixed in together nothing is perfect, I truly deserved a better world than the one I am, it is so annoying and offending to live in todays world.
