Ah fuck off. Has this idiot seen recent trends in porn? An awful lot of girls under 30 watch porn, and an awful lot of those have a "the dirtier, the better" mentality. If anything, I'd say it's sexually liberating.

Sure, Maybe if the chick went around and found a drunk dude at a bar, then took him home, fucked him, claimed rape and then sued him for all his money.

If you think that's bad, try reading Only Words by Catharine MacKinnon. I had to read this for class and was in a snit by the time I was done with it.

At one point feminism was pro-porn, at least to an extent. This was at the height of the sexual revolution. I loved this video Paul Elam had up here, but it got taken down for some reason. At the 2:40 mark it talks about Andrew Dworking bitching about women in porn. The back to back comparisons between her and Jenna Jameson was priceless. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKnCTf8GyW4

I love how people try to blame porn, it's ridiculous.

You might as well ban prostitutes and anything that has to do with sex.

Another blog filled with "femmitribe" (derived from "diatribe" and used in opposition to "mansplaining") regarding why female sexuality is superior than male (which we all know is toxic and icky).

Reading that stuff sometimes just makes me ill.

Let me quote something from the comments:

b) I don’t see mainstream porn as focusing on male pleasure, although it is certainly very robotic in nature;

How is this true? If you’re talking about orgasms, men’s are the only ones that we know for sure happened. And more often than not, we see the evidence of his orgasm in just about every porn, and his orgasm is usually the cue that sex is over.

Again, obviously this woman has not seen a lot of porn. More times than not, unless the guy is a "name," then you seldom see him from the chest up. He's just a "stunt cock" or a "cock with no name."
