I'll quit once I've d/l'ed a terabyte...

I've actually exceeded that now. I still d/l, but the desire to do so is waning.

haha wow

as a 12-14 y/o i mastered the art of selective history cleansing

deeznuts, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 22:34 (fifteen years ago) link

i don't know, i'm not gonna check my history normally, but it's obvious when it just disappears. also i don't care as long as it's not something really lame.

bell_labs, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 22:35 (fifteen years ago) link

i believe many girls would think standard porn is 'really lame'

deej, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 22:35 (fifteen years ago) link

Stuff like 'redhead shemale' searches are just amusing.

What pr0n did you ditch exactly, Hurting?

a) 60s/70s sweet innocent (and hairy) porn
b) 90s/00s (eg. nowadays) porn which is bling/hardcore/plastic surgery/emotionless
c) youporn/redtube and the likes: amateur porn

If it's b), I can understand, totally. It's gross and a waste of time. As for a) and sometimes c) as well, it's not gross at all to me, but can be fun/arousing/interesting, stimulating the imagination more than killing it. Not just for me alone, it can be an interesting topic of discussion with my girl.
Do the good talks you've had with your partner after your decision include porn itself? Did you talk about this with him/her? Or was it the abandonment of porn that spawned a somewhat 'purified' feeling? Question being: is it, or was it ever, debatable?

also i don't care as long as it's not something really lame.

i want to know what qualifies as really lame

haha yes

that a/b/c breakdown is totally otm.

also Hurting I congratulate you on your honesty.

Le Bateau Ivre, you missed out 80's porn.

snoball, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 22:46 (fifteen years ago) link

I guess I did, entirely!

What's that like? Pink stockings, hair bands and the likes? ;)

Le Bateau Ivre, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 22:48 (fifteen years ago) link

Big 80's hair, crappy video camera technology, vague attempts at plot, general feeling of dissatisfaction.

snoball, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 22:49 (fifteen years ago) link

The clumsiness of it all sadly makes it slightly appealing to me. It's as bad as 80s hair metal isn't it?

Le Bateau Ivre, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 22:51 (fifteen years ago) link

I mean, anyone who feels nostalgic for the 80's should go and watch some random 80's pr0n, and in no time at all they'll be glad they live in the 21st century.

snoball, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 22:53 (fifteen years ago) link

I think only the 80s could give us something as goofily awesome as "Sex Asylum 3: The Search For The Big Bamboo".

HI DERE, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 22:53 (fifteen years ago) link

Do they end up finding it?

Abbott, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 22:54 (fifteen years ago) link

Yeah, but it got into mainstream acting and did the Ramboo films

StanM, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 22:58 (fifteen years ago) link

(xxpost) I would like to refer readers to that "clown porn" thread from a few days ago...

80's softcore porn is the best. Playtime with Monique Parent is the masterpiece of the genre.

Ned Trifle II, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 23:18 (fifteen years ago) link

Play time is from 1994: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110846/

Le Bateau Ivre, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 23:22 (fifteen years ago) link

But kudoos for Monique Parent vividly posting on her own fanboard:

"The answer is no. We were not really masturbating. But yes, our hands WERE in our bikini bottoms, and yes, there really is nowhere else to put your hand once it's down inside a bikini bottom so in effect we were....but without intent, so we weren't. Does that make any sense"

Heheh - I'm shocked - it looks like the 80s! And has all this...

Big 80's hair, crappy video camera technology, vague attempts at plot, general feeling of dissatisfaction

It's also funny though.

Ned Trifle II, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 23:33 (fifteen years ago) link

It is! As his girlfriend I'd totally forgive Hurting for watching it every now and so ;)
Speaking of which... I'd like to see the brave man return to this thread!

Le Bateau Ivre, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 23:53 (fifteen years ago) link

I don't really understand getting overly upset about porn unless the guy is spending hours every single day watching it or is into something really bizarre and/or offensive.

ENBB, Thursday, 29 May 2008 01:18 (fifteen years ago) link

xxxpost haha paid membership to any porn site = lame

max, Thursday, 29 May 2008 01:30 (fifteen years ago) link

yeah i'm fine with it as long as it's free.

bell_labs, Thursday, 29 May 2008 01:32 (fifteen years ago) link

yeh if you can't find good free porn but are still watching it you aren't trying hard enough

J0rdan S., Thursday, 29 May 2008 01:34 (fifteen years ago) link

Someone is going to make a Gates mint one day figuring out how to make comedy porn that's actually funny.

"ironic porn purchase leads to unironic ejaculation"

ironic lil wayne cd purchase leads to unironic ejaculation

and what, Thursday, 29 May 2008 02:00 (fifteen years ago) link

Well, I wasn't hiding it from my wife, and she tolerated it but wasn't really crazy about me looking at it, especially the more hardcore stuff. But my decision to stop was totally my own - just out of the blue one day said "Hey, I've decided to quit looking at porn." As far as how much I was looking at it - not enough to interfere with work or responsibilities or anything but enough that I felt like it was kind of dulling my sex drive and imagination. And something had also just become depressing and lifeless and compulsive about the experience itself - clicking through dozens of clips, looking for the exact right cumshot, etc. And in part I just wanted to try quitting as an experiment, and so far I like the effects, although it hasn't been that long.

(note, I made clear that this does not mean I'm quitting wanking)

GOOD ON YA

HI DERE, Thursday, 29 May 2008 02:59 (fifteen years ago) link

there are some sites that give hope (ifeelmyself etc), but then again , i only like that site after becoming boed with 80s / 90s hardcore stuff. as someone that grew up with magazines, i'm interested in how 80s kids think about their pron v. sex habits...?

paulhw, Thursday, 29 May 2008 03:23 (fifteen years ago) link

I don't need porn. I just undress, arrange my games, guns and ammo on my bed and I take pictures while posing with them.

us_odd_bunny_lady (tipsy mothra), Wednesday, 8 July 2009 07:22 (fourteen years ago) link

I have a really weird relationship with pron. On the one hand I totally defend anyone watching it and I also read about it, but watching it seems less interesting to me. I will once or twice watch a shitload of clips (per year) but after that I stop for a year or so. Overall though I am not really that fascinated by the pron itself, but I have a keen interest in the discussion.

Alson Joey Stefano=/ Joe Delassandro. Christ, I thought the former was Dellassandro so I picked up his bio. hahahahahahahahaha My fatigue resulted in reading about a gay porn star (who appeared in Madonna's Sex book!). Not that bad really. Well, the bio was, but still an interesting read somehow.

one year passes...

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1293165/Nanny-30-died-sexual-arousal-watching-pornography.html

A 30-year-old woman's death as she used a sex toy while watching pornography was probably due to her state of sexual excitement, an inquest heard today.
Children's nanny Nichola Paginton was found dead in bed naked from the waist down last October with pornographic material running on her laptop. A sex toy was discovered next to her.
A Home Office pathologist told the inquest in Gloucester that Miss Paginton died from a sudden heart arrhythmia, probably brought on by her state of arousal.
Gloucestershire coroner Alan Crickmore agreed it was likely that 'her activity before death' contributed to the fatal arrhythmia.
The inquest heard that Miss Paginton, of Cirencester, was found dead in October last year.
Detective Sergeant Gavin Webb said police had been called by her employer Sarah Griffiths who had visited Miss Paginton's home when she failed to turn up for work.
When there was no reply at the door she enlisted the help of neighbour Michelle Grant and they saw Miss Paginton through the curtains, lying on her bed with her cat lying on her chest.
'After they broke in they realised Miss Paginton was dead,' said Sgt Webb. 'She had a computer on her lap and when they moved it and lifted the duvet, they found she was naked from the waist down and there was a vibrator in the bed.
'The laptop was still displaying pornographic material.'
Home office pathologist Dr Richard Jones from the University of Cardiff said: 'There is nothing to explain why she died in this way but I suspect sudden cardiac death.'
Returning a verdict of death from natural causes, Mr Crickmore said: 'I am satisfied Nichola Paginton died of a natural disease process - sudden cardiac arryhthmia.
'It is not always possible to determine an exact cause of death but it is likely that her activity before death contributed towards it.

William Donaldson died the same way, except it seemed sort of awesome and appropriate in his case.
