Yup yup! It's me again, riding on the success of my recent porn-related thread.
I jest, but reading the recent SuicideGirls fiasco news article in the News Room, i thought about the people who did end up walking out of Comic Con with their SuicideGirls book / video / whatever and it got me thinking; i just wouldn't have the courage to buy porn! Even the softcore kind. I wouldn't be able to stand in the store with a straight face as the guy scanned my copy of Playboy or the clerk in HMV scanned my dvd box set of 'girls gone wild'. I wouldn't even be able to pay for porn online because i know it'd end up on my bank statement. People will know about it. And then someone may find out i bought porn. Friends, family, parents and so on. The reason for all that though is because i've been brought up in a very conservative household where sex and porn are one of the many great evils and regarded as taboo in the eyes of my parents, as i mentioned before. Doesn't stop me watching all the great free porn online though, hurr hurr.
My question is: Would YOU buy porn? Forgetting whether you actually would due to all the free porn out there, would you have the courage to actually buy a dirty mag / video / internet subscription? If you do currently buy porn, why? And lastly, what's the appeal of softcore porn? I never understood why someone would want to look at pics of half-naked girls when they could watch a 10 minute video of a fully naked girl elsewhere.
Your thoughts!
