Is this some kind of article saying that men get desensitized and start to expect pr0n*s in bed?

Yes, but also that they didn't become wild beast roaming the streets looking for sex.

Well that's good then.

Those years of pr0n searching haven't screwed me up. It was being locked in the basement for 20 hours/day.

The young women who talk to me on campuses about the effect of pornography on their intimate lives speak of feeling that they can never measure up, that they can never ask for what they want; and that if they do not offer what porn offers, they cannot expect to hold a guy.

Even if you *know* that this isn't true with all guys, I think that you can't help feeling like that at least sometimes as a woman.

I'd think this would be a problem for plenty of people, not just women.

who cares? That's not because of porno, it's actually because of more exposure of sex in the mass media. In the long run, it's actually healthier to see it as a part of daily life, IMO.

. . .and I like porn.

Bah, it's a load of crap. A lot of women will say stuff like that and then stay in crappy relationships rather than date a "nice" guy. It seems like a lot of relationships only last when you can make the SO feel inadequate.

I'm not saying it's right, I'm only saying it's sadly true in a lot of cases.

Even if a chick's with one of those "nice guys," a lot of them still feel like they can't say what they want. There seems to be a taboo with women who are open about sex.

Not entirely a load of crap - you can be in a perfectly decent relationship and know it isn't true in your case, but still have that "measure up" feeling.

I've noticed that a lot of guys assume all men are like them - women-gawking, porn-guzzling, cheating SOBs - and that women should just grow up and get over it. I think a lot of gals may believe the same thing. There are portions of the male population who aren't like that, and portions of the female population who don't believe it, but I don't think you can blame the women who stay in crappy relationships any less than you can blame the men who think that males can't treat or view women any better than they themselves do.

Maybe they should imitate a reverse Japanese porn industry, where all the girls are ugly.

fyi, most males in Japanese pr0n have small wangs... my theory is, it?s to make the people watching feel adequate about their equipment... riiight ;)

Yeah I have read some rediculous stuff out of those magazines. There is a good side to some of those magazines though. Cosmo gives pretty good tips for woman to try on their men, so that magazine dont bother me one bit.

the trip about those mags is the articles supposedly written by men. they send out outlines for what they want the article to say to some 3rd party writer to basically paraphrase what basically is a womans opinion:)
