t,d,h you are mixing apples and oranges...porn degrades women it promotes violence against women, and it creats fake ideals for the men watching...do I really need to explain it? But a more basic reason for the harms of porn...bieng a woman and having slept with men who have learned everything they needed to know from porn, they knew ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about sex!!! LOL We're talking go back and re-read the manual boy!!
Images up on billboards, magiznes etc. influence women's self esteem as much as they let it. i prefer reading over tv myself, but that's just me.....

as for your attempt at telling me women are now a growing part of the users of porn..yeah there are def more women who use it, bi-sexuality also seems to be heavily in style these days, did you notice? I get paytv and on friday nights all the free porn a person could want, sorry even the movies being put out now do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING for me and most women I know. Why? because even with the "tremendous increase" in woman viewership they still make these movies to appeal to men! I work in television...I know the score!

OT Victornorth, glad to see a man's prespective on this "control" issue other than, "yeah women wanna castrate all men after they marry them" lol

I can really see where all wives are controlling b**ches!


Most of us will make a difference between the crap you went through and a woman who controls for self-centered (selfish?) reasons.

I would bet $1000 that all my exhusband's friends have heard horror stories about how he was hard done by. The point I am making is that generalizations are not often accurate.

But for the women forced into it ('human trafficking'), it's a case of rape, no matter how much money they make.
I'm still not sure how porn degrades other women, except for the crap those idiot men cause who have a horrible predisposition to begin with. Instead of focusing on the degrading effects of porn, focus instead on the jerk men. Getting rid of porn will do****shit for them. They're the type who play violent video games and wrestling and then go out and get into a lot of fights. The problem isn't the outlet; it's the person receiving it that should be focused on!
The point with my old roomate (whom I do not get along with anymore) was she paid for all that with cash up-front before she had turned 21, so who cares what her job was (though you've already expressed your thoughts on this)?

Ok so I had to work a little harder (no pun intended) to get what she paid for upfront but when I look back to being under 21 my memories are of dating, and school and partying and general fun not of spreading my ass and being gan-bangged infront of a room full of men and consecuentely more men at home who are still jerking off to that image. All in all I would have to say I got the better end of the bargain, ok so I couldn't pay for home in cash...but I still have my dignity!

Even though I can't stand her, I feel uneasy about saying negative things about her.
Well, she said the trade-off is that every day since she graduated has been the sweetest. Considering what she has accomplished, and what she ended up with (a nice job, an absolutely phenomenal fiancee, hopefully husband), and from what I heard, an adorable baby....
She said that she never had to do anything she didn't want, like what you mentioned, so her experience wasn't all that horrible (according to her). In fact, every time we talked about it, we would always break out laughing.

A friend's wife wont even allow him to watch fear factor or even go out with me because im single. I understand why she doesnt want him around me but "fear factor"?


I think single males wish their married male friends were not married so they could both pretend to be single. The fact is, when someone gets married, they enter a bond with the person they marry. That means their life changes. In a marriage, both sides make concessions. You may not see all the concessions both sides are making, but trust me, both sides are making them.

As to your friend, she may not want him watching Fear Factor, but I'll bet you good money he has demands of her as well, but you just don't know this because she doesn't go around telling you about it.

As for hangin' out, find yourself a single guy somewhere to hang out with. Your buddy already found a buddy and married her.

You are joking about this right? Can't hang out with a friend of 15-20 years because he's found another "buddy"? As to the rest of your post, does this apply to other married friends or just the single ones? Or are friends outside the relationship just out, considering he already has a "buddy"

" If a guy would rather be watching porn then spending time with his lady, there might be a problem?? Just a thought!!!

You mean that they're somehow mutually exclusive, i.e. either porno or the woman? And I guess that you somehow feel that women don't watch porn too? Just a thought.....
The point being made is that it should be each inDUHvidual's choice to make, NOT that of his/her partner.


porn degrades women...


A very well-proved homily. (NOT!)
I guess that horrifying "degradation" would tend to explain why women are lining up for the opportunity to be in dirty movies.

Perhaps you can 'splain how porn degrades women any more that it degrades the men, whom I can assure you are ALSO lining up for the opportunity to be in dirty movies.
This should be interesting ~!!

Yeah, im kinda starting to write off my male friend, just about everytime we schedule something a week in advance, his wife comes and messes up our plans the very NIGHT we are suppose to do something, last minute BS, and its usually some mundane task.

But he does it to "keep the peace/piece"

Control is something we all have to accept in death and taxes. But never let anybody else control you. If they appear to be doing that, get rid of em.

It isn't about control, but if a man or a woman for that matter marrys and loves the person they marry they want to make them happy. When you love someone making them happy makes you happy. Then you have sit up a nice cylce of happy.

Fear factor? That show is just gross, and pointless.

Your friends had rather spend time with their wives than you? How shocking!!!

Instead of wondering why your friends had rather be with their wives and make the wife happy instead of you, find yourself a wife and find out why.

Sorry but I have heared this whine from men all of my life, and it truly gets on my last nerve. My son isn't married but has been living with his girlfriend for a little over a year. I have heared his friends say this same type thing. I am happy to say he ignores these people and worrys more about making her happy than his silly little friends. He is 21.

Get married, then they'll be allowed to come out and play with you...because you will have submitted to the "Force"...you can all hang out in the garage together, and drink beer and watch sports...no fear factor though, sorry...it's against the Force guidelines.

That's the way it works. The reason: In 76% of all marriages, men are the breadwinners. Men have more to lose, plain and simple, and the current divorce laws ork largely in favor of women concerning financial and custodial decisions by courts. Women aren't dumb. They know this. So you must live by their rules or you lose much of what YOU have EARNED not to mention risk being relegated to the role of weekend dad. That's why I say - in all honesty, gents - DON'T EVER GET MARRIED. It's a trap.

YamIhere, I think it is rather sad that you see marriage as a trap. It can be,but it doesn't have to be. If people only went into the marriage for the right reason(they love each other) then there wouldn't be any problems. Too many marry for the wrong reason; money, sex, to have children, because it is expected of them, just to name a few.

When I divorced 10 years ago, I walked away with my clothing and other personal things, and my children. Even though I tried to keep him in the kids life, he wanted nothing to do with them. He didn't want them and I did. So of course I got custody. He never paid the first cent of child support and I never pushed it.

When marriage is good, I see it as being total freedom. Freedom to simply relax and just be yourself without fear of how the other will see you.

I have lost stuff as a result of being involved with people, but it really doesn't matter to me as that is all it was, stuff. I care a lot more about people than the things money can buy. I would rather live in a one room shack with someone I love and loves me back, than be alone in castle with loads of stuff.

As to rules, the only "rule" I have ever had is treat me like you would like to be treated yourself. Also I have never asked of anyone, something I would not be willing to give myself.
