I think so. Rings a bell.
I've grown more skeptical after watching 'Your Brain On Porn'. Erectile dysfunction stats are supposedly through the roof with young men these days.
I wonder how much of that is due to people watching weird shit. I have nothing against pornography and will be the last to judge others for what they find erotic. But if watching two people get it on isn't enough to get the juices going, you've probably gone too far.
Though I'm probably a prude by most standards. My last girlfriend tried to stick a finger up my ass and I freaked out. I don't know what is normal anymore.
Re: US Politics Thread
Well, their argument was that the availability of porn will always drag you on a path for more extreme stuff. Every image stimulates the dopamine levels in your brain, and like a drug you need more and newer experiences to get the same kick. A heavy porn user would soon find himself utterly dissatisfied with "normal sex", not to mention normal women.
Luckily it does seem to require a good, solid porn diet to get that bad, because if not we'd all be fucked. 
I don't recall the exact numbers they were quoting, but it was something like 20%+ ED among young men in the west. Kids these days grow up with the most extreme porn a fingertip away. I remember me and my friends had to work hard to get our hands on just a porn mag, and that was the 90s.
Re: US Politics Thread
I have never been a fan of porn. Amateur lezbo stuff is what I'll watch and is as extreme as it gets for me. But that's rare. But we don't need the government regulating our private lives or legislate morality. The Skinemax films are as close as I get to seeing porn, but the HD quality just reinforces the grossness. All the veins, bruises, plastic surgery, scars, fake tits are just glaring in their nastiness.
And I'm convinced Hatch likes dudes.

I sure hope so! Everyone needs some porn at some point in their life.
Everything is subjective I guess. I'm sure I like things that others find offensive but...
Porn over the last 10 years or so has become increasingly aggressive towards women. I'm certainly no prude by any means, but it's turned me off almost entirely to it. And that says a lot.

There was a pretty good documentary on netflix called Hot Girl Wanted. It was about these smaller "amatuer" sites and how they operate. Most seem to be in Florida, myb NV but states that don't have any laws or unions regarding it (CA). They just post ads on Craigslist offering "Make $500 a day". Well, the girls come down, usually from out of state, and think they're gonna be stars. Sortof ashame, most seemed broke, young, and naive, just like in the videos. Then their first day there, they are just rushed thru video after video, doing multiple a day. As they stay longer, and their face soon more recognized, they are paid less & less, until they leave. I think most haven't even been there 3 weeks. Some barely last a couple days.
I do agree porn is too available on the net (whatever happened to the "You Must Be 18 to Enter" splash page? I don't see that on youjizz.com lol), but that's all I really think is on that national level. Taking advantage of & mistreatment of the girls (outside of criminal, trafficking & felonies) I think falls more on the state & local.
FWIW there's a pretty amusing porn bloopers site efukt.com. Some outtakes are funny, but I admit some get into the seedy side of the industry (cokeheads flipping out, wierd porn motels, extremely amatuer/bad vids etc).

Well of course you're cool with it...you're a man. It does make it hard for me to tell who is the primitively one...the man that pays for it or the woman that takes it.
Re: US Politics Thread
Lmao Trump comes into office with a 37 percent approval rating...it'll be fun to watch him dispell the validity of these polls until they are in his favor....
God damn SG and RF...I do not know what you see in this flake....
Obamas approval rating is at 55 percent. And he's the worst president of our era? And Trump is already the anointed one.
It's more likely to get worse for Trump than better in the near future. Especially if he pulls the plug on Obamacare (not to be confused with the Affordable Care Act as some Trump voters believe) and the economy gushes jobs at least temporarily.
