Are we a generation spoiled by porn?  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 89/100. iheartblogging (488) 2 years ago

When you look magazines like Playboy or pornographic films, women are always tan, slender, and have huge, firm boobs that never sag. They have no stretch marks, no cellulite, and seemingly no hair anywhere other than on their heads. Men are, well, large. I'd say that this perpetuates some very unrealistic expectations in the bedroom-- Especially among young, dating couples. Realistically, people don't look like that. They forget to shave or get a nick or razor burn. Even women who are slender will usually have some cellulite or stretch marks, especially if they've had a child.

I'd say that these unrealistiuc people expectations are entirely the fault of the porn industry, but I'm not sure that's true. Pin-up girls of the 1950's were usually at least a little overweight, averaging a size 9 or 11. And porn stars of the 70's usually went unshaven and were less oompa-loompa-ey in their skin color. So who's fault is it? How did porn get to be a plastic industry? And why does it set the standard for real-life sex, rather than the other way around?

I have a blog on this subject, so I'd appreciate ANY views I could use as a jumping-off point for my next post. =)

I say you're wrong. They polish those pictures of women in the magazines because they have to look presentable. They know well that they had to sell these magazines so they clean them up real nice to make their models look seductive or arousing so many would buy them.

thumbupThis is true...the hollywoodization of America...how many of us are trying to be something we may not. Even I am guilty of trying to be super skinny..I was lucky-I've had 3 kids and only 2 stretch marks?! but I'll never look like Jenna...why try? I want to look natural not superficial...and if you ask me all the women on tv are totally superficial.
Good post!

If they showed women with scars, stretch marks, saggy boobs, etc. then there magazines would sell less. It would so sell so low that they would have to file for bankruptcy. Unless the customers are willing to pay for those magazines then those magazines will not sell.
