A couple months ago, I read an article in New York Magazine about how porn affects middle-school kids. The author interviewed a handful of 12- to15-year-old girls to get their opinions on how it's changed the boys they know. The consensus seemed to be that it made the boys want to pressure them to do more sexually, and made the boys prefer bigger boobies...
I'm not a sociologist, or anything, but here's a little secret, retards: that's not the influence of porn. That's 12- to 15-year-old boys going through what scientists commonly refer to as "puberty," and getting excited about the prospect of finally being able to touch girls. When I was in eighth grade, I didn't have a single male friend who didn't want to do more with his girlfriend, and who didn't like tig ol' bitties. And the closest thing we had to Internet porn was the Victoria's Secret catalog or a Cosmo!
Look, I'll be one of the first people to argue that technological advances are threatening to tear apart the fabric of society as we've known it. Hell, I might even specifically target Internet porn as one of the culprits. But when it comes to middle-school boys...there is nothing on Earth that could possibly make them any hornier than they already are. Trust.
