You are the sweetest thing ever. This made my day as someone who worked in the adult industries, but, honey, there's hair, make-up, lighting, and a whole lotta stuff. I have my stretchmarks and my bad skin days. But right now I could kiss you!

I guess I've always viewed beauty in a different way. What matters is that someone is beautiful/special to you, not that they're mainstream beautiful.

It also tries to pass off behaviors that would be degrading or offensive to many people as if they were completely normal... Gals, how many of you would even allow this?
I'd be totally fine with it. It's just semen. Washes right off with soap and water. I won't let myself be beaten or tortured or put through pain or perform humiliating, weird, fetishistic acts (no funnel/Depends/iron maidens please!), but if it gets my partner really hot to come on my face, so?

Morality aside, the messages being sent by pornography aren't realistic. It's essentially pure fantasy most of the time and has the effect of dumbing down your desire to socialize with real people, replacing it with a quick high spurred along by an unrealistic fantasy.
I like porn, but admittedly, I like nothing more than spending time with my current partner, having our little intellectual discussions and our stupid immature jokes, havign crazy sex, and then watching him play the drums. It's so much more rewarding.

Now I'm not saying you can't enjoy porn, but you have to realize what you're looking at and know that it can be very addictive. If it's starting to replace your social life, it's time to re-evaluate.
We can agree here. (And I'm going to kiss you for indirectly calling me hot, you little hottentot!)
