Caltrops - Biohazard: Code Veronica





	[quote name="Senor Barborito MetaFilter Post"][quote]"People are not closer because of porn but further apart; people are not more turned on in their daily lives but less so."[/quote] It seems wrong for me to read that sentence and think to myself, "Good." But there you go . . . [quote]Wolf was wrong to imply that porn's "mission" is to devalue women -- it exists to get people off, period.[/quote] Here's where I get prudish, though. The thing that has always bothered me about most Internet pornography is the way anal sex and facials are used to implicitly humiliate women. The overwhelming bulk of Internet pornography, in my experience, caters to this taste, and that fact has always disturbed me. Like any healthy male I greatly enjoy the dominating aspect of the sex act, in the sense that I always strive to achieve new heights in stamina, skill, and force in order to leave my wife's jaw on the floor in sheer amazement. I want her to sexually shocked and awed each and every time. But humiliated? Why? How is that attractive? I've loved, or at least liked, all of my partners. I don't understand why I'd want to humiliate them, and the fact that it seems like other males do - and perhaps increasingly so - has always deeply concerned me. I've tried to want it but it feels wrong and moreover makes no emotional sense. I'm missing something, here, and I can't help but think this is somehow related to the various points Naomi Wolf touched on. Oh, and yeah, the entire Orthodox Jew portion of the article should've been left on the cutting room floor. posted by Ryvar at 11:45 AM PST on April 18 [/quote]
