cinniie said about PORN: i remember when you first asked this question and i still feel like there’s some answer out there, surely. i’m actually more curious about it now. it’s not weird to me that it’s “free” but there has to be a profit, somehow….
one theory of mine is that most porn sites are offering snippets of videos that probably were PPV that someone bought, downloaded and kindly uploaded to the public. just like how less people buy music but artists still make money.
XXXX
One would hope it would make sense, and you have the best theory to date, but I still don’t think it can account for all porn (all the costs of producing it). My SO and I are discuissing it now and she thinks porn makes its money by being personal, by personal webcam shows and what-not. I say it still doesn’t account for all the porn produced, which, clearly is free of charge. You can go to site after site after site and watch porn videos. Compare that to music. Can you go to site after site after site and click a button and hear the latest?
The implications are that someone in charge, with power and money, wants the mass of humanity to have ready, free access to porn.
The ultimate question is why?

Right. One must WADE through all the free porn to get to the pay porn…..

???????
Not good is right, though I reject the “addiction” terminology because it weakens or even alleviates personal responsibility. Very, very few things in life are actually addictive, Porn is a choice, perhaps habit-forming, but a choice nonetheless. Ubiquitous is also right. It’s everywhere, pumped now directly into our homes and onto our devices. For free. No one has satisfactorily answered me regarding who pays for all this free porn, and I don’t think no one can…and ALL OF IT is free. It’s a 100 million dollar industry that is paid for by none of its consumers. Hmm.
Bring it. I wanna be proven wrong.

ON SECOND THOUGHT, AFTER REREADING MY KICKING PORN POSTS, I THINK YOU SHOULD PAY ATTENTION TO THIS ONE (#3). JUST SAYING…..
Kicking Porn part 3
One time I was watching this porn and it started off real soft. I don’t know where I saw it, on Redtube or Boobtube or Cunttube or Asstube or Gapingholetube, one of the the tubes. A pretty girl all dancing around in skimpy clothes. She was a real girl, too, without the plastic ball boobs or the pontoon hotdog lips, just dancing around. There was music, some computerized autotune crap, and she started to take off some of her clothes–just some, keeping her breasts and the holiest of holies covered up. She had on a thong but nowadays who doesn’t? Even the pope wears a thong. It’s fucking 2014.
The video was 38 minutes, so I’m, like, is this it? Just a hot chick dancing around? Just as I thought that, a new scene appeared and I realized I was watching a compilation.
It was a different girl now, dancing around to different computerized autotune music that sounded exactly the same as the other computerized autotune music. She had less clothes on, but of course the ubiquitous thong, and she actually stripped off what clothes she did have on to the soulless squeeks and ploinks and wails of the muzak. She was fully naked now, unlike the other girl, and her vagina was shaved, which is nothing new. All vaginas are shaved. Even the pope has a bald pussy. It’s fucking 2014.
A new scene appeared, a naked girl in a bath. There was no muzak playing, so I turned off the mute permanently and listened to her splash around. She was caressing herself, focusing on her breasts. She was less real than the first two girls, with the plastic ball boobs, but pretty normal looking lips. She could still probably whistle for a taxi, anyway. She caressed those soapy, disturbingly round boobs vigorously, but nothing else happened.
The next scene came on and it was of a different girl masturbating in the living room of one those super echo-y Southern California McMansions where all porn is shot.
On and on it went like this, with each scene amping it up from the next. Pretty soon hairless greasy people were fucking really loudly in the echo-y Southern California McMansions. There were eventually threesomes, spitting, slapping, double anal, gaping, and at one point I even saw a bewildered dog.
About 10 minutes left in the video, the final scene came on. Gone were the echo-y Southern California McMansions and we are taken to a phony-looking, echo-y cave. A tatted out woman was strapped to the wall, spread-eagle and naked. She had piercings in the nipples which crowned her surprisingly human breasts. Up and down in her vagina were more piercings. Her belly button was pierced, almost as a joke. She was berating the off-camera guy, calling him a pussy and a wimp, telling him his dick was was puny.
WHACK! suddenly she’s whipped across her boobs, which instantly turn red.
She laughs at the guy. “Is that all you got, you fucking pussy!” She berates him more, saying he’ll never break her.
WHACK! WHACK! two more in rapid succession. Her breasts are tomato red now. There’s a long pause as she gathers herself. In a cracking voice, she eggs him on.
It goes on like this until blood is running down her legs and she’s bawling and screaming and begging to be let go.
So, yeah.
It was like watching a car wreck. You wanna look away, but it’s hard. I shut it off, so I don’t know how it ended. Hopefully, they reconciled and were able to stay together for the kids. Divorce is so hard on them. Oftentimes, they think it’s their fault, the poor little bastards.
I came across that video about a month or so ago, and I was intrigued by the progression. I was intrigued by the pervert who put it together, with obvious progression his goal. I have to say: If you’re shocked by the rape culture present in our civilization, you’re an idiot.
It was probably this video, more than any other, that got me thinking that I no longer want to be a consumer of pornography, that I was going to kick fucking porn.
Update: I have not slipped. Yes, I have masturbated, but without porn. I got a lot of good comments and input to the other two articles, some very long, people telling me their own stories with porn usage. I will go ahead and keep things anonymous. One young man, a long time follower, simply CAN’T quit. He talked about how it fucks with his own real sex life, but simply can’t quit.
Does anybody out there wonder why NOT watching porn is so difficult?
Another young woman spoke of using porn as a tool. She found herself in a situation where her S.O. was not interested or not able and indulged. I got the sense that porn had no power over her, that she used it like the whore it is.
One person yelled at me for “demonizing” sex, which is the exact opposite of what I am doing. Porn is the exact opposite of sex. For me, for the young man I mentioned before, and probably for millions and millions of other people, porn is a sex killer. It’s anti-sex. The person even had the gall to use the phrase “human sexuality”. LOL.
If you think instant free access to porn is good for human sexuality, you’re probably also shocked by all the rape culture. You probably describe yourself as “sex positive” and never get laid and, yeah, whatever…You’re just clueless.
One person said “LOL, why do you think no one pays for porn?”
LOL, because no one does. Do you? Do you know anyone, anyone at all who pays for porn? All porn is free, except the super niche stuff (and if you apply yourself you can find that for free too). My S.O. and I were talking about this and she can’t explain how so much porn is produced, what with nobody, anybody paying for it either. I mean, these porn stars live in nice houses (echo-y Southern California McMansions), they can afford tens of thousands of dollars in plastic surgery, many of them have health and dental plans, and ALL PORN IS FREE.
So who’s paying for it?
Anyway, you can just let your assumptions do your thinking for you if you want. It’s easier that way. But I am sorry. Porn is indeed a 100 million dollar industry and nobody pays for it. Well, not the consumers of it anyway.
It’s been two weeks and my sex life has greatly improved. I wanna fuck a whole lot more, which I covered in the second article, but the actual sex itself is way better. The tactility, the scents…
Not watching porn has been like that great, classic movie They Live, one of the most subversive messages ever to come out of Hollywood (which is really surprising if you think about it). Not watching porn is like putting on Rowdy Roddy’s magic sunglasses and seeing sex as it really is.
Remember when I was all talking about kicking porn?I made a...
Remember when I was all talking about kicking porn?
I made a couple of posts about it. Here(1) and here(2) and here(3) if yer at all interested (I wouldn’t be).
Update. After initial success, I backslid, usually when I had alcohol in me.
The goal is to see what kind of a man I am after, like, an entire year without porn. If I achieve it, I will be unique. All modern 21st Century men use porn. Every single one. Rapes and violence against women have increased in these our modern times. Is it the fault of porn? Who knows, but have you ever watched porn? Do you know what the woman is in porn?
A thing. A sex toy with a pulse.
Pardon me, but I’d rather not think about women that way, even in fantasy, which is just “wishful reality”.
So after numerous slips, I put K9, an internet filter on my comps. The password is two-party, me and someone else. Thus, it’s not at all readily changed.
This is a hardcore filter. Initially it blocked Tumblr, even. Had to put it in as an exception. Also for Youtube because, for me, Youtube is tv and radio. I watch a lot of my favorite (non-porn) media on it. Also listen to music.
The filter works very well and despite my determined and drunken efforts, I can’t get around it. You can find sexy stuff on Youtube, like girls working out in hardly any clothes, but it’s delightfully porn-free.
I kinda like being at a point in my life where a naked leg turns me on rather than someone spitting into someone’s asshole.
Call me old fashioned. Please.
Hello. All is well with me (I woke up again and my heart’s...
Hello. All is well with me (I woke up again and my heart’s still beating). Hope all is well with you, too.

FIRE NUNS! Portland’s own (by way of South Dakota)…
My son is doing fine. Here is their latest recorded song. He’s the singer and guitarist and lyricist.
As an aside, Tumblr really makes you jump through hoops now to upload music, don’t they? I actually had to suck a lawyer’s dick.
It tasted, by the way, like misery.

lafleurquirire said about PROGENY: Omg your son is beautiful! Plus that’s some cold parenting…you seriously like upped and left him alone?
PPPPP
Yep. Not as cold as it sounds. I told him about it all his senior year, that I was leaving, and invited him along. He was totally plugged into the social scene there and wanted to remain behind. So his choice. Hell, he had a part-time job and like two hundred bucks. What more does a young man need?
