In a funny and kind of sad essay, a writer on Salon discusses how sex with men who watch porn (or maybe she means too much porn) can sometimes make her feel like she's starring in a private porno against her will. The moves are too rehearsed, too cheesy, too porn-y. "It’s hard to feel fully in the moment," she writes, "when you’re thinking of what it would be like to watch it."

I’m not a big porn-watcher, but if I did watch porn, I wouldn’t watch it for the plot. (I’m kinda like a dude that way.)
Well, it turns out if I started watching porn now, I’d be in luck. The pendulum has swung back to plotless porn, in part due to competition from the Internet, where porn scenes are short, relatively plotless and dialogueless, and which cut to the action more quickly.

This may be a conservative estimate, but I reckon 99.9% of men buy or view porn. Maybe some of them are completely open about it, but most guys could live without having their mom or third grade teacher catching them purchasing Tongue in Cheeks at the corner market. Which brings me to this amazing Bud Light commercial featuring what would have to be the shy porn buyer's worst nightmare.

As we all know, pornographic magazines, movies and websites cater, for the most part, to men. We hear all the time that men are visual creatures, while women are romance junkies. (Someone once argued that romance novels were a woman's pornography.) Although women aren't quite as easily stimulated by visual material as men, some women do like porn — not all of it soft core.

Animal rights organization PETA has always produced campaigns that have been the subject of contention. And, with Super Bowl Sunday — the biggest day of the year for advertising — looming around the corner, the group has naturally found itself in a hotbed of controversy. NBC has rejected PETA's newest TV spot, aptly titled "Studies Show Vegetarians Have Better Sex."

In the past few months your sex life has all but dried up. You’re always trying to initiate things, and you’ve even gone so far as to buy sexy new lingerie, but nothing seems to get your boyfriend interested. When you ask him about it, he says he’s sleep deprived and stressed out.

I have a friend that had a baby 15 months ago and being so involved during her pregnancy and after her baby girl arrived, naturally I was named godmother. Recently my friend came to me to talk about her fiancé, the father of the baby. We all know that he dabbles in online porn, but after repeated requests for him to stop my friend finally gave up, figuring that online porn really isn't so terrible.
