Pornography has destroyed me

Porn Has Completely Destroyed Me

There was a time - I'd say pre 1999 - when I would have tolerated a girl with an errant fat roll, a mildly problematic ass, or even non-porcelain veneered teeth. And come to think of it, I might have even green lighted a B cup chest.

But with the installation of the high speed cable modem, alas, I am sad to say that those times have now passed. I now only want - and will only solicit affection from - girls with killer porn star looks and behavior.

I am ashamed and I do not like what now stimulates me, but the Internet, with all of its quick fix, crack-like vices, has made me extraordinarily intolerant.

Are you a Tufts or Harvard grad and a great conversationalist?

Not important.

Do you have a quirky sense of humor and a knack for cooking Asian Fusion cuisine?

Don't care.

Would you like to discuss the sub-text meaning of the whip sawed brush strokes of that Kandinsky painting at the MFA?

Fuck off.

Be the source of a blood rush and make me throw a rod in my pants or kindly turn into anti-matter.

I am ruined. I am dead on the inside. I am ashamed and embarrassed of what now stimulates me and I know that I am irrevocably changed for the worse. For all practical purposes, Internet porn has destroyed me.

So who am I? Not who you'd think. Not the dandruff-haired blob of shit in the cube next to you. Not the UES Michigan frat boy. Not the faux disheveled Downtown hipster with the silly retro Puma sneakers.

Sadly, I am the "normal" one that you're actually interested in. Cultured, eloquent, well dressed. I am the one you discuss with your girlfriends over Sunday brunch. I am the one you hope to bump into at Karen's pajama themed apartment party. I am the one who takes the lead, holds doors, and hails cabs.

Shit.

Do you dream of a man who will "love you just for you?"

Do believe that you have peripheral, intangible qualities that men of substance will key upon and gravitate to?

Do you shun the gym in favor of The Apprentice and a pint of Ben & Jerry's Chunkey Monkey, thinking that your black cigarette pants will sufficiently mask any belly spillage or ass expansion?

Then forget it. It's game over. You're a walking, talking non-compete clause and you're going to end up alone with a slobbering oversized Rotweiller named Chuckles.

Pull your head out of your ass and be advised - porn viewing/obsession is spreading like the plague amongst my gender - upping the already unrealistic physical expectations, pushing boundaries in the bedroom (you're down with anal, right?), and providing instant, customize-able sexual highs with the push of a button.

If you're female and you don't posess prodigal, Einsteinian caliber intelligence that would propel the cause of humanity forward, and, if you don't relish the idea of being alone, then . . .

. . . throw every last dollar you have at your physical appearance.

I'm serious. Personal trainer. Porcelain veneers. High-end boob job. Get scared and get it done.

Do not extend my gender any credit. Do not hope that a guy will be in awe of your cello playing, your VP title, or your cute apartment.

I promise you he won't care. Don't kid yourself into thinking he will. Men are programmed to respond to the visual.

Look good or you're alone.

How has Internet porn changed your life, if at all? And if you are under about 25, I don't think you can answer this question, since you don't know a world w/o internet porn. I do. It was awful.

The author of the quote seems to think men do the choosing in relationships. Probably he hasn't ever had a girlfriend, or he'd know it doesn't work that way.

Maybe he needs to work out and improve his appearance.

 

[draqon]

perhaps.

Internet porn destroys nobody's life. It merely opens up a sexually liberal mindset that we tend to keep subdued.

 

[draqon]

and by opening sexually liberal mindset, most of us cant handle this liberty, we go and commit suicide.

I won't hesitate to admit that pornography sometimes has content of questionable value.

Actually, I think it is often quite the reverse. People who watch too much porn come to have unrealistic and quite skewed expectations about sex.

Porn is usually not liberating. Rather, it imposes its own set of strictures and expectations on people.

 

[CANGAS]

Most porn, so they tell me, favors the producer's skewed, or, warped, perception of what the paying customer wants.

They tell me that most porn shows sex to be much more brutal or violent than what most men or women actually desire or will tolerate more than once.

So, my conclusion, depending on only what I have been told, is that most porn will give a naive person who has sexual curiosity a vastly wrong idea of what sex really should be.

In the sense that sex should be gentle and friendly whereas it is very often portrayed, so they say, as predatory and violent, porn should be generally, though not exclusively, called very destructive.

In my humble opinion. ( I have a HUMBLE opinion?!).

Is this analogous to the influence of media on violent behavior?

answer me this
why would advertisers be willing to spend 1000's maybe 10's of thousands of dollars for a 15 second commercial if media has no effect?

 

[Anomalous]

I hate it when I am googling for beautiful girls, I get to face women doing oral on men.

If I could , I would bury thoes bastards alive.

Thats is the most despectable image I could come accross.

 

[duendy]

Annie Sprinkle will sort ya out!

What you say here seems to imply advertisers wanting a person to buy a product. What sort of product? If it doesn't advertise, what would this commercial be about? A videogame, perhaps?

That's what primitive people such as yourself get when trying to satisfy their primitive urges.

You haven't evolved, Anomalous. Frankly, I fear you may just be slipping back into that warm pond.

Scandalous, with minimal murmurs and rumors are rife. Ciascuno.

what i meant was advertisers will spend outragous sums of money for airtime

and related to this is the fact of subliminal messages which were voluntarily banned by the media
there has to be something that would make you see something that you are not concious of. why is this?

If you weren't such a moron you would turn on googles' safe search but then again you would have less to bitch about wouldn't you.

[Giambattista]

Unlike you, I don't care all that much.

 

[Giambattista]
