Porn. We are a society that consumes so much of it, while we also demonize it and blame it for our sexual problems. But is the industry really to blame?
As a sexologist, I have seen firsthand how porn can be destructive. From men who create false intimate relationships with the women on the screen, to others who expect their partners to perform like porn stars and some who suffer from erectile dysfunction and performance anxiety when comparing themselves to the men on these films.
Some woman feel inadequate sexually, often questioning why they can’t have an orgasm or enjoy anal sex like porn stars. Many measure good sex based on their ability to perform and please a man (a common scenario in adult films).
We are also now seeing the effects on today’s youth with porn being accessed at an earlier age and these actors being seen as role models. Young teens think this is what real sex looks like and the issues we are seeing in adults are becoming more prevalent in a younger generation.
Loathsome and lascivious
I wouldn’t say they are a bigger threat, but what a waste of time and effort spent on reporting about their squalid lives. Who cares about these people??
Agreed, 8:59 am. I have spent a total of zero seconds watching those TV shows or online whatever about them, or reading celebrity magazines, etc., yet the name has popped up about a thousand times. What is the matter with this country? WHO CARES? …as you say.
And I agree with you 6:41 – not even watching or reading about these vapid self centered ppl – I am still aware of it because it is shoved in our faces. It is just awful that they are given so much publicity for doing nothing but being so self absorbed with themselves. Sad
Nice pic of three beasts.
Lol this couldn’t be dumber
