The Porn Myth, by Naomi Wolf
In the end, porn doesn’t whet men’s appetites—it turns them off the real thing. This story featured NYMag.com
Today, real naked women are just bad porn ... Here is what young women tell me on college campuses when the subject comes up: They can’t compete, and they know it. For how can a real woman—with pores and her own breasts and even sexual needs of her own...
At a benefit the other night, I saw Andrea Dworkin, the anti-porn activist most famous in the eighties for her conviction that opening the floodgates of pornography would lead men to see real women in sexually debased ways. If we did not limit pornography, she argued—before Internet technology made that prospect a technical impossibility—most men would come to objectify women as they objectified porn stars, and treat them accordingly. In a kind of domino theory, she predicted, rape and other kinds of sexual mayhem would surely follow.
The feminist warrior looked gentle and almost frail. The world she had, Cassandra-like, warned us about so passionately was truly here: Porn is, as David Amsden says, the “wallpaper” of our lives now. So was she right or wrong?
Not Tonight, Honey. I'm Logging On.: Internet porn is everywhere; even "nice" guys are hooked. So where does that leave their girlfriends? By David Amsden (October 20, 2003)
The New Position on Casual Sex: The rise of Internet dating has brought a sexual openness (not to mention one-night stands) to the younger generation not seen since the seventies heyday of Maxwell's Plum. But can there be too much of a good thing? By Vanessa Grigoriadis (January 13, 2003)
She was right about the warning, wrong about the outcome. As she foretold, pornography did breach the dike that separated a marginal, adult, private pursuit from the mainstream public arena. The whole world, post-Internet, did become pornographized. Young men and women are indeed being taught what sex is, how it looks, what its etiquette and expectations are, by pornographic training—and this is having a huge effect on how they interact.
But the effect is not making men into raving beasts. On the contrary: The onslaught of porn is responsible for deadening male libido in relation to real women, and leading men to see fewer and fewer women as “porn-worthy.” Far from having to fend off porn-crazed young men, young women are worrying that as mere flesh and blood, they can scarcely get, let alone hold, their attention.
Here is what young women tell me on college campuses when the subject comes up: They can’t compete, and they know it. For how can a real woman—with pores and her own breasts and even sexual needs of her own (let alone with speech that goes beyond “More, more, you big stud!”)—possibly compete with a cybervision of perfection, downloadable and extinguishable at will, who comes, so to speak, utterly submissive and tailored to the consumer’s least specification?
For most of human history, erotic images have been reflections of, or celebrations of, or substitutes for, real naked women. For the first time in human history, the images’ power and allure have supplanted that of real naked women. Today, real naked women are just bad porn.
For two decades, I have watched young women experience the continual “mission creep” of how pornography—and now Internet pornography—has lowered their sense of their own sexual value and their actual sexual value. When I came of age in the seventies, it was still pretty cool to be able to offer a young man the actual presence of a naked, willing young woman. There were more young men who wanted to be with naked women than there were naked women on the market. If there was nothing actively alarming about you, you could get a pretty enthusiastic response by just showing up. Your boyfriend may have seen Playboy, but hey, you could move, you were warm, you were real. Thirty years ago, simple lovemaking was considered erotic in the pornography that entered mainstream consciousness: When Behind the Green Door first opened, clumsy, earnest, missionary-position intercourse was still considered to be a huge turn-on.
Well, I am 40, and mine is the last female generation to experience that sense of sexual confidence and security in what we had to offer. Our younger sisters had to compete with video porn in the eighties and nineties, when intercourse was not hot enough. Now you have to offer—or flirtatiously suggest—the lesbian scene, the ejaculate-in-the-face scene. Being naked is not enough; you have to be buff, be tan with no tan lines, have the surgically hoisted breasts and the Brazilian bikini wax—just like porn stars. (In my gym, the 40-year-old women have adult pubic hair; the twentysomethings have all been trimmed and styled.) Pornography is addictive; the baseline gets ratcheted up. By the new millennium, a vagina—which, by the way, used to have a pretty high “exchange value,” as Marxist economists would say—wasn’t enough; it barely registered on the thrill scale. All mainstream porn—and certainly the Internet—made routine use of all available female orifices.
The porn loop is de rigueur, no longer outside the pale; starlets in tabloids boast of learning to strip from professionals; the “cool girls” go with guys to the strip clubs, and even ask for lap dances; college girls are expected to tease guys at keg parties with lesbian kisses à la Britney and Madonna.
But does all this sexual imagery in the air mean that sex has been liberated—or is it the case that the relationship between the multi-billion-dollar porn industry, compulsiveness, and sexual appetite has become like the relationship between agribusiness, processed foods, supersize portions, and obesity? If your appetite is stimulated and fed by poor-quality material, it takes more junk to fill you up. People are not closer because of porn but further apart; people are not more turned on in their daily lives but less so.
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. The young men talk about what it is like to grow up learning about sex from porn, and how it is not helpful to them in trying to figure out how to be with a real woman. Mostly, when I ask about loneliness, a deep, sad silence descends on audiences of young men and young women alike. They know they are lonely together, even when conjoined, and that this imagery is a big part of that loneliness. What they don’t know is how to get out, how to find each other again erotically, face-to-face.
So Dworkin was right that pornography is compulsive, but she was wrong in thinking it would make men more rapacious. A whole generation of men are less able to connect erotically to women—and ultimately less libidinous.
The reason to turn off the porn might become, to thoughtful people, not a moral one but, in a way, a physical- and emotional-health one; you might want to rethink your constant access to porn in the same way that, if you want to be an athlete, you rethink your smoking. The evidence is in: Greater supply of the stimulant equals diminished capacity.
“For the first time in human history, the images’ power and allure have supplanted that of real naked women. Today, real naked women are just bad porn.”
After all, pornography works in the most basic of ways on the brain: It is Pavlovian. An orgasm is one of the biggest reinforcers imaginable. If you associate orgasm with your wife, a kiss, a scent, a body, that is what, over time, will turn you on; if you open your focus to an endless stream of ever-more-transgressive images of cybersex slaves, that is what it will take to turn you on. The ubiquity of sexual images does not free eros but dilutes it.
Other cultures know this. I am not advocating a return to the days of hiding female sexuality, but I am noting that the power and charge of sex are maintained when there is some sacredness to it, when it is not on tap all the time. In many more traditional cultures, it is not prudery that leads them to discourage men from looking at pornography. It is, rather, because these cultures understand male sexuality and what it takes to keep men and women turned on to one another over time—to help men, in particular, to, as the Old Testament puts it, “rejoice with the wife of thy youth; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times.” These cultures urge men not to look at porn because they know that a powerful erotic bond between parents is a key element of a strong family.
And feminists have misunderstood many of these prohibitions.
I will never forget a visit I made to Ilana, an old friend who had become an Orthodox Jew in Jerusalem. When I saw her again, she had abandoned her jeans and T-shirts for long skirts and a head scarf. I could not get over it. Ilana has waist-length, wild and curly golden-blonde hair. “Can’t I even see your hair?” I asked, trying to find my old friend in there. “No,” she demurred quietly. “Only my husband,” she said with a calm sexual confidence, “ever gets to see my hair.”
When she showed me her little house in a settlement on a hill, and I saw the bedroom, draped in Middle Eastern embroideries, that she shares only with her husband—the kids are not allowed—the sexual intensity in the air was archaic, overwhelming. It was private. It was a feeling of erotic intensity deeper than any I have ever picked up between secular couples in the liberated West. And I thought: Our husbands see naked women all day—in Times Square if not on the Net. Her husband never even sees another woman’s hair.
She must feel, I thought, so hot.
Compare that steaminess with a conversation I had at Northwestern, after I had talked about the effect of porn on relationships. “Why have sex right away?” a boy with tousled hair and Bambi eyes was explaining. “Things are always a little tense and uncomfortable when you just start seeing someone,” he said. “I prefer to have sex right away just to get it over with. You know it’s going to happen anyway, and it gets rid of the tension.”
“Isn’t the tension kind of fun?” I asked. “Doesn’t that also get rid of the mystery?”
“Mystery?” He looked at me blankly. And then, without hesitating, he replied: “I don’t know what you’re talking about. Sex has no mystery.”
"Don't perpetuate a culture that tells you that you have no control over or responsibility for your actions. You can, too, help yourself. "
A lot has been said about how to prevent rape.
Women should learn self-defense. Women should lock themselves in their houses after dark. Women shouldn't have long hair and women shouldn't wear short skirts. Women shouldn't leave drinks unattended. Heck, they shouldn't dare to get drunk at all.
Instead of that bull, how about:
If a woman is drunk, don't rape her.
If a woman is walking alone at night, don't rape her.
If a women is drugged and unconscious, don't rape her.
If a woman is wearing a short skirt, don't rape her.
If a woman is jogging in a park at 5 a.m., don't rape her.
If a woman looks like your ex-girlfriend you're still hung up on, don't rape her.
If a woman is asleep in her bed, don't rape her.
If a woman is asleep in your bed, don't rape her.
If a woman is doing her laundry, don't rape her.
If a woman is in a coma, don't rape her.
If a woman changes her mind in the middle of or about a particular activity, don't rape her.
If a woman has repeatedly refused a certain activity, don't rape her.
If a woman is not yet a woman, but a child, don't rape her.
If your girlfriend or wife is not in the mood, don't rape her.
If your step-daughter is watching TV, don't rape her.
If you break into a house and find a woman there, don't rape her.
If your friend thinks it's okay to rape someone, tell him it's not, and that he's not your friend.
If your "friend" tells you he raped someone, report him to the police.
If your frat-brother or another guy at the party tells you there's an unconscious woman upstairs and it's your turn, don't rape her, call the police and report him as a rapist.
Tell your sons, god-sons, nephews, grandsons, and sons of friends it's not okay to rape someone.
(My addition - if you get the chance, beat him senseless).
Don't just tell your women friends how to be safe and avoid rape.
Don't imply that she could have avoided it if she'd only done/not done x.
Don't imply that it's in any way her fault.
Don't let silence imply agreement when someone tells you he "got some" with the drunk girl.
Don't perpetuate a culture that tells you that you have no control over or responsibility for your actions. You can, too, help yourself.

CRIMES COMMITTED BY FEMALES AND THE MEDIA
Astronaut in Diapers and more deserving kooks
From Precarious Thoughts Blog
I've been hearing a lot lately on the radio and news about the lady astronaut who apparently suffered mental fatigue and attempted to abduct another woman in a jealous tyrade over a man... a lot has been said. Every morning as I drive to classes, I hear parodies and skits on the radio station, mocking the woman.

NASA Astronaut Lisa Nowak Charged With Attempted Murder in Bizarre Love Triangle
However, I really don't quite get why the media is making such an ordeal out of this, with all things considered... I've yet heard no wisecracks by Dave Letterman on Robert Pickton, the sleezy greasy pig farmer who is personally responsible for murdering scores of women, one of Canada's most notorious rapists and serial murderers... and we probably never will. The media seems to bias itself on gender.
What I mean is, my friend Ed was called to jury duty on a trial where a guy took his former girlfriend hostage in a grocery store, and put a bullet through her head and killed her. No national headlines, not a peep from satire. But when the woman, Betty Broderick pulled practically the same stunt, it made international headlines. Just this morning, in our local area I heard tale of a man who plotted to hire undercover cops to assasinate a local bar owner, but there will be no national headlines... and just yesterday was filled in on the tragic story of Nyia Page who would not go to sleep and William Page put the baby out in the freezing cold. But nobody in media is making satire, proclaiming him a "kook". Everyone knows we take the crimes of men with more sobriety and even, toleration than the crimes of women. The radio did tell of the last moments of Nyia's life... little footprints in the snow. She got up and tried to find her way around. Merely two years old.
Nyia Page’s Father Charged With Her Murder

In a poll conducted by Redbook Magazine of 300 College Age women, 94% confessed to regularly faking an orgasm or turning in desperation to fantasies (even violent fantasies) to arouse themselves . . . this is a clear sign of troubled intimacy, namely the man they're with cannot arouse or satisfy. This article attempts to explain some of the reasons. . .
On 6/14/2005, Ed Babinski wrote:
Interesting argument that points out a flaw in nature. Of course the Biblical answer to "the battle of miscommunication between the sexes" is that God has simply instructed women to obey men, so that the male side wins, "as it is written" by males in books in which God is also a "He."
Just a few years ago, women were fighting law enforcement to take spousal abuse seriously.
That is how men viewed women. "You are his property."
In the 1970's I heard on the television news, where a woman had charged her husband with rape. My mother (born 1932) asked in her fundamentalist ignorance "How can a man rape his wife??"
I want to see women free from coercion to do undesirable acts in the bedroom.
Howard Stern: "If my wife doesn't do it, I'll divorce her." WHO gives him the right to coerce a woman into doing things she finds appalling --and on national radio, encouraging other men to do the same thing to women. Sex should be consentual, and enjoyable for both parties.
THE SILENT SEX CRIMES
I believe it is safe to say that people who consume pornography, specifically violent pornography, place themselves at risk of engaging in inappropriate and unhealthy behaviors. Just as alcohol impairs one's perception of reality, likewise, pornography distorts a healthy view of human sexual intimacy. Of course, in saying this, I risk criticism from those who will argue that healthy sexual intimacy in itself is a subjective matter and that I should not impose my opinions about healthy intimacy on them. I wish these same individuals could sit in my chair as I listen to some of their spouses cry bitter tears of resentment about the various sex acts they have been subjected to in the name of their spouse's definition of healthy intimacy. These clients often report feeling manipulated and coerced into participating in sexual behavior that their spouse wanted, but they did not. These are, perhaps, some of the more subtle sex crimes that will never see prosecution, a courtroom, or an indictment. These crimes are emotionally and physically abusive but often fall on deaf ears because they happen behind bedroom doors in the context of marriage relationships.
One client even reported she would have preferred a one-time traumatic experience with sex from a stranger than have over ten years of being subjected to perverted sex from her spouse who was being influenced by pornography.
FAILED PROPHECY
Gn:3:16: Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee. (KJV)
" . . . spouses cry bitter tears of resentment about the various sex acts they have been subjected to in the name of their spouse's definition of healthy intimacy. These clients often report feeling manipulated and coerced into participating in sexual behavior that their spouse wanted, but they did not."
. . . and thy desire shall be to thy husband
Not those women. Not me. I refuse.

Science has best explained the predicament women have found themselves in. Men are getting their Sex Education from the wrong source.
Pornography, caters to visual stimulation in male brain chemistry, and found only in males --without regard to facts about female brain chemistry and anatomy. Men are sexually stimulated by visual images (a product of evolution), women are sexually aroused by emotional and intimate bonds (a product of evolution). These fundamental differences between male / female brain chemistry clash.

WHAT IS THE PRIMITIVE REGION OF THE MALE BRAIN?
120 thousand years ago - Homo Sapiens appears
The growth of the cerebral cortex accelerated further in man´s immediate ancestors, and reached explosive proportions in the last million years of human history, culminating in the appearance of Homo Sapiens.
The primitive region in the brain, that held the circuits for the instinctive behavior of the reptile and the old mammal, was now completely enveloped by and buried within the human cerebral cortex.
Yet this ancient command post, relic of our distant past, is still active within us; it still vies with the cerebral cortex for control of the body, pitting the inherited programs of the old brain against the flexible responses of the new one.
Experiments suggest that parental feelings, source of some of the finest human emotion, still spring from these primitive, programmed areas of the brain that go back to the time of the old mammal, more than 100 million years ago.
One part of the old brain, called the hypothalamus, is only the size of a walnut in the human brain, and yet a minute electrical stimulus applied to this region in the brain can create the emotional states of anger, anxiety or acute fear. The stimulation of nearby regions, only a few tenths of an inch away, produces sexual desire, or a craving for food or water.
The hypothalamus also appears to contain centers for aggression, killing, and fight-or-flight responses.
Experiments indicate that states of anger and aggression are created by electrical signals originating in the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus behaves as though it contains a gate that can open to let out a display of anger or bad temper.
Normally, this gate is kept closed, but now and then the animal´s senses tell its brain that its rights are endangered; a mate is lured away, food is stolen, or threat signals are received; and then the package of brain survival programs called the "emotions" comes into play, and an electrical signal to open the gate comes from som ancient center of instinct deep within the brain.
It is as if two mentalities resided in the same body. One mentality is ruled by emotional states that have evolved as a part of age-old programs for survival. The other mentality is ruled by reason, and resides in the cerebral cortex.
In man, the cerebral cortex, or new brain, is usually master over the old brain. But the reptile and the old mammal still lie within us.
These properties of the human brain lead to a prediction regarding the life that will follow man. As nature built the new brain on top of the old in our ancestors, so too, in the next stage of evolution after man, we can expect that a still newer and greater brain will join the "old" cerebral cortex, to work in concert with the cerebral cortex in directing the behavior of a form of life as superior to man as he is to the ancient forest mammal.
From the book: "The Enchanted Loom, Mind in the Universe" by ROBERT JASTROW
II. HYPOTHALAMUS
The hypothalamus is an exceedingly ancient structure and unlike most other brain regions it has maintained a striking similarity in structure throughout phylogeny and apparently over the course of evolution. The hypothalamus is fully functional at birth and is highly involved in all aspects of endocrine, hormonal, visceral and autonomic functions and mediates or exerts controlling influences on eating, drinking, the experience of pleasure, rage, and aversion. The hypothalamus is the central core from which all emotions derive their motive force. The hypothalamus is also sexually differentiated. That is, structurally and functionally the hypothalamus of men and women are sexually dissimilar.
Nature vs. nurture divides academia Feb 28, 2005
But some psychologists and neuroscientists who know about the differences between men's and women's brains believe his remarks have merit and support more research on the subject ... In recent years, neuroscientists have found that male and female brains are wired differently because of the role of testosterone and other male hormones during gestation. (Boston Globe)
The Evolution of Sex Differences in Language, Sexuality, and Visual–Spatial Skills
which in turn promoted innate sex differences in visual spatial vs. language skills. For example, female primates produce more social and emotional vocalizations and engage in more tool use and gathering activities, whereas males tend to hunt and kill. Similar labor divisions are evident over the course of human evolution. “Woman's work” such as child rearing, gathering, and domestic tool construction and manipulation contributed to the functional evolution of Broca's speech area and the angular gyrus—which injects temporal sequences and complex concepts into the stream of language and thought. These activities gave rise, therefore, to a female superiority in grammatical (temporal sequential) vocabulary-rich language. Hunting as a way of life does not require speech but requires excellent visual–spatial skills and, thus, contributed to a male visual–spatial superiority and sex difference in the brain.
More Evolved Brain Region Controls Sex Urges
Arousal based in more primitive area
By Randy Dotinga
HealthScoutNews Reporter
THURSDAY, Nov. 29 (HealthScoutNews) -- As most teen-age boys know, it's not easy to keep hormones in check. While humans can control their level of sexual excitation with some effort, a new study suggests that skill is a fairly recent gift from evolution.
By studying men watching pornographic videos, researchers in Canada have pinpointed areas of the brain that become active when the men tried to avoid being stimulated. In evolutionary terms, these regions of restraint are newer than the more primitive areas where the sexual urges arise in the first place.
The findings offer more than just a glimpse at how the mind deals with sex, says study co-author Mario Beauregard, an associate researcher at the University of Montreal. "The most important message [of the research] is that a human being … has the capacity to consciously and voluntarily influence his own cerebral activity -- electrical and chemical brain processes. Undoubtedly, this represents one of the most remarkable human faculties that have emerged in the course of human evolution."
Only primates have prefrontal cortexes. That region of the brain, located right behind the forehead, is most advanced in humans and is involved in analytical thinking, multitasking and problem solving.
Beauregard says the purpose of the study was to investigate how the brain regulates itself by controlling emotion. Some experts suspect that lesions in the prefrontal cortex may be responsible for abnormal behavior in people, and some think breakdowns in the brain circuitry responsible for self-regulation could cause depression and anxiety, he says.
Beauregard and his colleagues enrolled 10 healthy white men, aged 20-42. The men watched excerpts of pornographic films that, in most cases, showed heterosexual or lesbian group sex.
Researchers measured brain activity of the men in two situations -- when they were told to let themselves be sexually aroused and when they were directed to control their urges and act as though they were "detached observers."
The findings appear in a recent online edition of the Journal of Neuroscience.
The men's prefrontal cortexes, the newer regions of their brains, turned on when they tried to control themselves. By contrast, erotic feelings prompted activity in older parts of the brain, including the region known as the limbic system, and the neocortex, which allows people to be aware of their feelings, Beauregard says.
The study, in effect, examined how the mind suppresses feelings on the borderline between voluntary and involuntary, says Dr. Thomas Lewis, professor of psychiatry at the University of California at San Francisco. Part of the challenge is that "no one has any idea how free will exists [in the brain]," he says.
It's not surprising that the prefrontal cortex becomes active when men try to hold in their sexual arousal, Lewis says. That area appears to be in charge of inhibition, and people who suffer from injuries to that region have problems suppressing inappropriate thoughts and emotions.
"They pretty much act on the spur of the moment. They say and do things that are inappropriate," Lewis says.
If that sounds a bit like a teen-age boy, there's a reason. The prefrontal cortex develops in adolescence and that could explain why adults usually control themselves better than children, Beauregard says.
In other words, as your brain grows, so does your ability to keep your feelings to yourself.
AND WHEN WOMEN WERE EXPOSED TO EROTIC VIDEOS -- THIS WAS THE RESULT:
After eight years of tests involving 3,000 women, Pfizer, the company behind Viagra, the little blue pill that has transformed men's sex lives, has abandoned efforts to prove that the drug works for females too. Its exhaustive research has concluded that men and women have a fundamentally different relationship between arousal and desire. A women's arousal is triggered by a network of emotional, intellectual and relationship-based factors rather than the simple physical response required by a man, it says. The company's sex research team admitted that they had concluded the brain is the crucial sexual organ in a woman.
Early trials, where women were dosed with Viagra while watching erotic videos, the drug appeared to work, but further studies found that even though Viagra induced a greater pelvic blood flow, the women did not feel substantially more aroused. The fact that the earth only moves for women if they think it does comes as no surprise to many leading female sexologists It has long been held in these circles that a women has an emotional libido and it only a question of, when will men realise, the only surprise has been that it has taken many hours of research and thousands of pounds to conclude something that is blindingly obvious.
WOMEN DO NOT LIKE IT
Men honestly believe because a "visual image" --flesh for fantasy, stimulates, excites, and tantalizes their senses -- women must like it too.
Wrong.
EROTIC VISUAL STIMULATION (PFIZER'S RESEARCH):
While a man's arousal almost always led to a desire for sex, there was no such obvious corresponding factor with women, he said. There's a disconnect in many women between genital changes and mental changes, the same does not exist in men.
Men consistently get erections in the presence of naked women and want to have sex. With women, things depend on a myriad of factors
Women get satisfaction from things much deeper from emotions that involve romance and love, men on the other hand are quite basic in their instincts on desire, therefore the belief that sex is a matter of organ function, like breathing or sleeping is a totally wrong assumption to make. Pfizer say that the search for a female Viagra will continue but the benefits of this latest research has been a far better understanding of the biochemical and physiological factors involved in female sexual function.
Why spend millions when the right setting a bunch of roses and a caring partner can provide the perfect ambiance conducive to love and romance.
On 6/10/2005 2:15:59 PM, Edward Babinski wrote:
Great stuff. Good research. The Pfizer data was interesting. I mean they are the one's promoting viagra to stimulate pelvic blood flow, and if there was a ghost of a chance that alone worked on women, they'd promote it.
Women are being coerced into sexual behavior that is not enjoyable, unnatural and makes the sexual experience unfulfilling for them.
Thus, RedBook's poll of 300 college age women and 94-96% confided as suffering signs of dis-satisfaction and troubled intimacy.
There is a difference between some women pretending to like behaviors which appeal to men, perhaps to sound hip and in-mode -- and really liking it.
The scientific data indicates "female brain chemistry" is not wired to enjoy it. Therefore, one must be suspicious they are lying or at least, hiding their true feelings. Social Peer Pressure can make people say things they do not really believe in.
What to say, the Porn industry lied:
From Chairman Goldsmith (Australian Government) Report:
The visual image is processed by the right side of the brain; print by the left. The latter is rational and analytical; the former holistic and pattern-recognising. Left brain/right brain research is beyond the scope of analysis of this paper, but clearly questions need to be asked about the impact of the visual (whether photographic or film) image on the brain, particularly the male brain, which recent research indicates has much less connection between its left and right halves than the female brain, and therefore possibly much less opportunity for the rational left to control the impulses generated by the impressionistic right.
A further point: even many apparently non-violent images of naked women show them presenting as if in estrusas if already aroused and frequently in poses reminiscent of animal sexuality. Human females do not experience estrus, so such poses are a lie. However, they may well function to arouse the male (as pornography avowedly aims to do anyway)...(Reisman 1992, p. 25).

Subject: "Feminists" who lie because of Peer Pressure and parrot what is Politically Correct
"Pornography" is liberation for women.
It has given us "Freedom" of Expression.
Freedom to bow down on hands and knees, just as it has been for thousands of years. Men are still in control of EVERYTHING, including women's rights... dignity and respect.
(Howard Stern said he would DIVORCE his wife if she refused him oral sex.)
Would that be enough threat for a woman to perform oral sex against her will?
Nobody is saying "this is wrong for women." And the few like myself who've said in the past, "women do not like it", the men chime in, "But they do!"
NO. THEY DO NOT.
It does not matter what Hugh Hefner says.
The scientific data says something quite different.
Men have an advantage women don't.
Men can tune out facts at sheer will. That's why when women have been saying these same things all along, men have so casually ignored them --just like evangelist Norman Geisler said, "it took the testimony of two women saying Jesus was not in the tomb--one woman's word wasn't enough". That only applies to information men "want" to hear.
If men do not want to hear something, even if a thousand women say it -- it will meet with deaf ears.
WOMEN DO NOT LIKE IT.

"Adam and Eve were among the few subjects that permitted Northern artists to represent the nude [...] Eve is an imaginative re-creation based on contemporary ideals rather than on observation of a live model. The small, high breasts and bulbous abdomen are Gothic stylizations. The emphasis on the large abdomen stresses the role of childbearer assigned to women in the fifteeth century.

YE OLD DOUBLE STANDARD
This definately needs emphasis:
The art historians admit that a live model (real man) was used for Adam's physique but for Eve a live model was not used, rather "the fantasy, ideal body" (in this case to impress upon women their bodies should be used for one purpose --sex, to breed babies).
DARK AGE PROPAGANDA.
MAN CAN "LET HIS BODY GO", BUT NOT WOMANKIND!
So, women's bodies are suppose to "evolve" every century with whatever sexist bull.
So it was said about Barbie, the doll was created to "show young girls how to look" --not necessarily that most girls would or could ever look that way. In recent years I heard the Barbie doll's bustline was scaled down a bit in tolerance of smaller breasted women. It was long overdue. If Mattel wanted to show true tolerance, they would sell Barbie with different breast sizes . . . afterall, that's the way nature makes real women.
The pornography industry is POISONING the minds of men and women alike with the "ideal body image" --just like Eve, (not based on realism, but idealism). It is no less influential and damaging than any propaganda Joseph Goebbels published.
Observe from this centuries-old painting how men were not, (and still not) put under pressure to acquire the ideal body. Women however, are expected to excel to the "fictitious ideal body image" --women are suppose to miraculously macroevolve according to whatever dogmatic propaganda any generation is spewing.
So many women lined up to get pregnant back in ye old days -- today they're lining up at the plastic surgeon's office. Back then, the propaganda hanged on church walls --today it is sold at convenience stores under the name of Playboy.
A FEMALE VISITOR
Google + what's the perfect female?
Answer: Exactly however nature made her body. This is the year 2005 -- the days of Hitler's Eugenics are gone bye bye. Man should butt out with sexist propaganda and allow Mother Nature to take her own course in terms of human evolution. The perfect female body? In another 2,000,000 years -- the female anatomy as we know it today, will have disappeared and replaced by genetic mutations which are occuring right now. Evolution happens!
Meanwhile, I'd like Intelligent Designers to explain the battle of the two genders. THEY CAN NOT. Why didn't God create the genders compatible to begin with? Why the divide in the Hypothalamus of the human brain that has caused men and women to be at odds with one another since the beginning of recorded history?
In the past, I have had numerous personal insults, mockery and accusations hurled at me for saying "Women do not like pornography" by members of the Secular Community (Atheists and Agnostics). The only people which seemed to empathize with my distaste of Pornography, were Christians. There is a clear difference between "nude art" and pornography and if we as a society can not distinguish between art and sexist garbage, we are in deep trouble. Not recognizing the difference, is what made Goebbels' hate messages so influential.
HOLY SMOKE
Not all people in the Secular Community feel so generous toward pornographers.
Pornographers attack Holy Smoke Org
Holysmoke.org once had a place where its viewers could share their favorate URLs / web sites with other viewers. Net pornographers took advantage of that generosity by abusing it. They used (and are still using) an attack robot (an automated program) to send hundreds of URLs to that page, trying to advertise their repulsive "services."
People already know these things --they merely need scientific research interpreted and verbalized.
These were some search strings around the country, coming up for this page:

google.com penis size porn industry
This is an example of where the Porn Industry preys on men. By repetitively obsessing over penis size VISUAL STIMULATION men become convinced "size matters" and she'll leave if its not big enough. OH NO, IT IS THE MAN WHO LEAVES IF ITS NOT BIG ENOUGH. I've read the spams clogging my inboxes claiming you'll lose her if you don't gain two inches tonight! -- these people are predators, preying on the fears of men, equally disgusting as what they are doing to women.
Men obsess over physical assymetry. I cannot understand as a woman why men make such a big deal over size (cultural conditioning has created this obsession perhaps). I don't even want to look at one, much less pull out a measuring tape . . .

What would Robert Ingersoll say about "needing more" than one special woman?
This is another problem I loathe about pornography . . . Solomon couldn't keep all those women satisfied, but I'm sure he had fun using them. Not that any of them had any pleasure fighting with other women, pitted against one another in competition. Men don't like pitted in competition, for themselves ... oh no, what's good for the goose, is seldom "good" for the gander.
Even this example is more of the "battle of wills" between the human genders.
Why do women tend to be monogomous by nature, while men are pulygamistic?
Why this discrepancy in human design? When a man cheats it makes the woman extremely unhappy.
Some species of animals are completley monogomous while others are not. But humans are divided on both behaviors!
Less perfectly designed than animals.
That's a statement on men, not women.
Two new experiments I read about

Speaking of Viagra, I just read in this week's Science magazine, published by the American Association of Science, the results of a recent experiment using testosterone patches on women to help increase their sexual desire. 38% of the women who were in the study and who had received a patch with no testosterone nor any other chemicals at all on it (a placebo), said they would buy the product if it was offered for sale. The article continued by saying that the manufacturer wondered if they might not make money simply selling patches with no chemicals in them at all.
Interesting. It agrees with the findings of Pfizer (above) "The fact that the earth only moves for women if they think it does comes as no surprise to many leading female sexologists."
I also read on the last page of Harpur's magazine, the "Findings" page that sums up every new scientific discover of the month in a single lines and jams them all into a single page, that parents favor their more handsome or beautiful children over their less handsome or less beautiful children.
SHARON: Is that cultural conditioning at work? Would a blind parent treat their children differently based on looks? Is it fear -- weakness -- cowardice in the people who discriminate toward their own children?
WHY?
Canada
google.ca pornography men why
Ask yourself, if women are asking a question like "Why do men like pornography?" -- this question alone implies "she does not see anything of interest in it" (or logically she wouldn't be asking the question, would she?) If she does not find anything exciting about it -- then please tell me, how this woman (and others) are feeling when those positions are forced on them behind closed doors? Perhaps "out of place" -- "insecure" -- "uncomfortable" -- "not interested" -- "unhappy" -- "her desires taken for granted" -- to name a few adjectives that perhaps describe how women are made to feel by "male visual" sexual hallucinations.
To say the least, when you take what you see on videos and magazines out into the real world, its frightening for most women --and they do not like it.

The porn industry is with us, due to widespread ignorance, fear and superstition about sex. When men become self-aware of their own misguided views on sexuality (much to do with their religious/social indoctrination of gender superiority) supplementing it by seeking misleading and "violent pornography" whose aim is all too often to humiliate and degrade the female gender --the problem will begin to resolve itself.
Women too must learn they are not mere sex objects, but have a mind (though structured different than men) but equal in intelligence to men, and can redirect their lives away from the traditional role put upon females to acquire "the perfect titty", "the perfect little housewife", "the perfect little baby breeder" (ye old 'barefoot and pregnant' stereotype) -- "the perfect little sex toy" -- women can choose their own destiny, instead of allowing society to choose it for them by becoming scientists, doctors, lawyers, etc. That includes women who choose just to be "MOM" -- it is enough, so long as the woman chose her life for herself, instead of allowing society to choose it for her.
Hugh Hefner, Larry Flynt, and other wannabe pornographers including street pimps -- do not own women. Women own themselves. Women must only become conscience of that reality.
Getting your money's worth
A bored man is wanting something to do for fun, he just got paid.
Ah, a sex flick.
Do you think he's going to want to pay his hard earned money seeing a man tenderly caressing and kissing --- real lovemaking.
So, to make it worth the cash -- contorted unreal sexual positions to keep the interest of the viewer.
Unfortunately, this distortion of human sexuality is exagerrated and in *real life* leaves women feeling a little less than satisfied. Afterall, when a man is alone with a woman -- who's watching? Is it for an audience or for her?
WHO ARE THE PROFESSIONALS?
I got to thinking to myself some time ago after reading about "amateur" and "professional" -- Professional at what? Professional at
acting out some exaggerated sex act on film? What makes any person a "professional" at sex?
Here are The True Professionals:
Gynecologists, Urologists, Sexologists and other physicians who specialize in the treatment of human body organs. These are the true "professionals".
Porn stars are not professionals. Nobody would spend their money on watching two people in love, making love -- it is too "boring" and "down to earth" -- too realistic.
SUPERSTITION
A woman was tried and convicted before Sir Matthew Hale, one of the greatest judges and lawyers of England, for having caused children to vomit crooked pins. Think of that! The learned judge charged the intelligent jury that there was no doubt as to the existence of witches; that it was established by all history and expressly taught by the Bible. The woman was hung and her body was burned. Sir Thomas More declared that to give up witchcraft was to throw away the sacred Scriptures. John Wesley, too, was a firm believer in ghosts and, insisted upon their existence after all laws upon the subject had been repealed in England, and I beg of you to remember that John Wesley was the founder of the Methodist Church. In New England a woman was charged with being a witch and with having changed herself into a fox; while in that condition she was attacked and bitten by some dogs, and a committee of three men was ordered by the Court to examine this woman. They removed her clothing, and searched for what they were pleased to call witch-spots -- that is to say, spots into which a needle could be thrust without giving pain; they reported to the Court that such spots were found. She denied that she had ever changed herself into a fox. On the report of the committee she was found guilty, and she was actually executed by our Puritan fathers, the gentlemen who braved the danger of the deep for the sake of worshipping God and persecuting their fellow men. I belong to their blood, and the best thing I can say about them, and what rises like a white shaft to their eternal honor, is that they were in favor of education.
A man was attacked by a wolf; he defended himself and succeeded in cutting off one of the animal's paws, and the wolf ran away; he put it in his pocket and carried it home; there he found his wife with one of her hands gone, and he took that paw from his pocket and put it upon her arm, and it assumed the appearance of a human hand, and he charged his wife with being a witch. She was tried, she confessed her guilt, and she was hung and her body was burned! My! is it possible?
Robert G. Ingersoll "Ghosts"
ON BREASTFEEDING
Superstition and Ignorance
There's been some really warped search strings pour into this website. One man was searching warped images of a "son nursing his sick father with an artificial breast". Let's be frank about this --- human breastmilk not only is too weak to sustain a grown adult, it TASTES bad. I would know. I expressed milk into bottles, and sometimes half/half'd with Enfamil baby formula. Out of curiosity to make certain the milk tasted okay -- I took a small sip and spit it out. IT TASTES NASTY. It's like watered down cows' milk.
Another MYTH, IGNORANCE and SUPERSTITION that brings male visitors to this page (Sickening Search strings such as, "When a woman is raped, what comes out of breast?") It makes me angry. It makes me very angry in behalf of all women and children that men are so warped in their thinking -- it makes me angry the male population is so filled with IGNORANCE on breastfeeding. Here is a simple fact to carry away from this page with you. Breastmilk can not be found inside a woman's breast until after delivering a baby, and even then it may take some time for "the milk to come in". Three babies, and all three times, it was a matter of several hours between the time I delivered my babies and the milk began production. Prior to that, there are only other fluids (part of milk) which are found in the breast. If a woman is not and has not been pregnant, nothing is there. One man confided in me he had tasted breastmilk from his two-month pregnant girlfriend. It's not true. . . milk would not be found in a woman's breasts that early in pregnancy.
Men make a perverse and warped fettish from something intended for a "healthy relationship between mother and child". If you ask any of these men questions on breastfeeding they can answer nothing! Why is that? SUPERSTITION spawns from IGNORANCE. Men like you are what makes women ashamed and afraid to breastfeed their children.
BUT WHO SAID MEN EVER GIVE A DAMN ABOUT REALITY, ANYWAY?
WHORE, SLUT, BITCH
The word "whore" alone is a derogatory label slapped on women who are sexually active outside of wedlock -- implying "sexual sin", and, of course the male is immune from this label.
I say there is no such thing as "sexual sin" unless it can be applicable to male and female alike. Who causes her to "sin"?
Most all women and men, have participated in "misguided sexual behavior" at one time or another in their lives, but the word "whore" itself arose from sexist bigotry and sacred superstition.
SERIAL RAPISTS AND KILLERS DOING THE LORD'S WORK?
What is society suppose to do with whores?
Dt:22:20: But if this thing be true, and the tokens of virginity be not found for the damsel:
Dt:22:21: Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to play the whore in her father's house: so shalt thou put evil away from among you. (KJV)
Superstitious bullshit.
Rick wrote: I would hope that we have had enough feminism in the 20th century to lasts us another century without having to be recycling it constantly?
Rick is probably ticked off, because the woman he found wasn't blathering the typical, stereotypical "airhead" nonsense we've become so accustomed to out of the sex industry --- women who make a living "talking dumb" so men can feel they're intellectually superior to the female gender.
I'm sure men want to keep that lie going. Pay women to talk dumb, and they can feel all big and smart...
The only thing being "recycled" as Rick put it, is his own superstition and ignorance.

Take a Protestant, and ask them to hail Mary three times.
Do you Ed, believe they're interested or want to?
Okay, if "social and gender conditioning" has that powerful of an influence over the mind --then how much more powerful, BIOLOGICAL conditioning --the wiring of the human brain itself?
You think women like it Ed?
The human brain is also wired that men and women both, will sometimes lie through their stinking teeth, to say what they think a man wants to hear...
saying whatever, a woman *believes* society wants her to say.
We call this breed of human, "two faced".
You think they like it?
Let's talk a little about "Biological Conditioning":
Ask a cockroach if a dog looks good to mate with.
Ask a cat if a goat is attractive to it?
Ask a chicken if it wants to mate with a fish?
The female brain was designed for intimacy. While the male brain evolved separately -differently. But some women, knowing the man "is always right" (society says so!) and to fit in she parrots whatever he wants to hear. All "hip" women say "I like it", because its exactly what "the in crowd" says. Like Ed, it doesn't take a genius to figure out --WOMEN HAVE BEEN TRAINED to be subservient, including letting men think for them --TRAINED TO SAY WHAT MEN WANT TO HEAR!
I do not like it. My_brain_tells_me_so. That's more than most women have: an opinion of their own.
Dumbass men.

Teacher killed by sick internet pervert. Police arrest the sick-o and found hundreds of pornographic images on his computer, including necrophilia.
Jane Longhurst, did not "like it".
Coutts attacked Jane, 31 - a close friend of his lover - after luring her back to his flat in Hove in March last year.
As he strangled her with a pair of tights prosecutors said he "had his way with her", satisfying a twisted lifelong desire to kill a woman during sex.
Coutts placed the body in a box, which he kept in a shed for 11 days. He then moving it to a storage unit where he visited it 10 times in three weeks.
Jane Longhurst did not like it.
Even if Hugh Hefner and Larry Flynt and "the men who decide for women what they're suppose to think and say", say otherwise:

Rape is a crime because, "women do not like it". Even if men do like to rape women.

Rape is not funny. Rape is a crime. But Penthouse wants to make humor of rape. Perhaps they want to legalize rape?

Women's sex drive can be stronger than men's and asking the question if it is fair for women to pretend they don't desire sex, to be safely called 'ladies' by society, when their male counterparts are allowed to be open and boldly sexually active. If women do not pretend to lack a desire for sex, they're labeled sexist names. These prejudices are rooted in ancient male superstitions and paranoia.
