Should porn on a public library computer be ok?

[cheri1122]

Librarians were a lot tougher when I was in junior high - we used to pour puddles of lighter fluid on the [fireproof!] tables & light them up for a quick [and pretty blue!] blaze that disappeared without a trace by the time the librarian got there. After a couple, they just ignored it, lol. Long as we didn't set anything on fire, they left us alone to 'study' whatever we liked.

The report says 9.4 women watch porn. Whos to say? But you are right, people can see the same picture and see two different things.

What I wanna know is what the percentage is who actually star in it .... as opposed to those who only watch it ....

I am sure someone will create a government study on it.

If you mean the percentage of all women, you could get that from Google. If you mean the women in expediting, all you're gonna get is crickets, lol.
I can tell you how many women write and/or direct porn: zero.

Undoubtedly ..... probably right after they get done with the all-important study of the courtship habits of the common garden slug .....

Wrong, but I admit they are few.

Didn't really know either but figured they are there lurking somewhere. Sure enough.

Surprisingly, many women who work in the business say they don’t like porn — at least not the porn that takes up most of the shelf space in adult stores or is downloaded from the Internet. They do not object for moral reasons, they just think it’s a crummy product and often far too misogynistic.


That's my feeling, too - there's nothing wrong with the portrayal of sex, [we're talking consenting adults here, and nothing else] except when it is misogynistic. The way women are portrayed and treated in porno movies is a pretty clear clue that they aren't writing the scripts, even if they are signing the checks.
Thanks for the link - the quote about women referring to the male actors as 'furniture' cracked me up - it's small consolation for being portrayed as furniture themselves, but ya takes what ya can get, lol.
