Internet nudie pix
I don't understand. Who are these girls? Why are they doing that??? I know, I know, for the money... but really? How much dough actually gets into the babe's hand? Who shells out the dough? How many of these girls end up getting stiffed?
For the money?
Whose money?
Who's buying?
Who's selling?
I'm not questioning the profit motivation for the websites (paid advertisers, etc)

I think we may have a whole post-internet generation believing that this sort of behavior is okay, or at least tolerated.

"How many of these girls end up getting stiffed?......."

I would say most of them. Isn't that why they're there? ;)


I agree, wild chlid. This next "Internet Generation" does seem to feel that this is OK. I will also say, that the amount of oral sex has increased in the middle schools ten fold. They seem to think it's a good way for birth control at that age. This is what happens when parents allow internet access in there kids bed rooms. Hell, most of the parents STILL don't even know as much as these youngesters and are fooled on a regular basis. Quite sad....

So, Laqtis, global warming is finally arriving in Michigan, eh?

Personally, I think they should have to pass the written first.

Laqtis, I think that homeschooling is sounding better every day. Where did the tenfold increase in oral sex get measured? Surveys or surveilance equipment?

Sellers only thrive on buyers wants.

The core problems are deeper than the sites.

IMHO, that's all. I'm comparing what was going on when I was in middle school to what my wife (who is a 7th grade math teacher) tells me. We've talk about this many times. It seems to me that the kind of stuff that was going on in High School 17 years ago (and I went to a pretty wild High School) when I attending is now going on in the middle schools in our area. Working where she does and having the type of kids she does, she gets a lot of info. I guess I should have prefaced my commment with a IMHO, re: the ten fold. I've been working in the educational area for 10 years now, so I was drawing on that experiance as well.

Oh, okay, I was just wondering. There has been talk about it occurring in our middle school and high school as well. If people let their kids watch garbage on TV and go wherever they want on the computer and at the mall, then they shouldn't be surprised that the values that their kids end up with are going to be different than the kids who grew up watching Brady Bunch, Buffy and Jody, and the Waltons. Our world has dramatically changed and will keep changing. A bit upsetting and confusing for those of us with kids who are getting close to middle school. One of my friends was saying that at a high school way east of me, lesbianism has almost become an epidemic. Seems that maybe we'll die out as a homosexual race rather than from a nuclear race.

A homosexual race? Not for long. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Population pressure is the greatest threat to the human race.

I understand that internet porn is popular among old ghouls.

Does any one know anyone who has contributed monetarily to support internet porn? Who is ponying up? Are there really people who subscribe to pay sites???

What the internet perv viewers really deserve is to see their wives, children (both sexes), sisters and mothers pop up on their favorite sites.

Yeah, Manuka, that would certainly shock a few anyway. But maybe a lot of people who look at this stuff really don't care about their children or relatives any more than they care about the people who are in the perv pictures.

Why do you think there are so many sites vying for customers.

I once read an article about a NYU grad that couldn't find a job about 10 years ago and opened a pay site.

4 years later he had 20,000 customers at $29.50 a month.

Ran the whole operation out of eight rooms. Sold the business and retired, all within 6 years.

Yes, I would say it is big business.

There's demand for it, and this is an industry that isn't regulated well, which leads to a number of ways in which people are abused.

If we're going to allow it, we should make sure that the people doing have access to health care, insurance and the same stability as other jobs.

Pervs or not, you're not going to legislate porn away.

Yes, these are times of concern. Garbage abounds the air waves, it seems the lines have all been blurred.

From my information, Haunted, there lesbian problem is there becasue the girls think it turn the guys on and makes them more attractive. I kid you not. Girls hold hands in the halls ways at my school that are not even lesbians, but just do it to get the guys attention.

Some stats:
Internet porn is a $2.5 billion business

Seventy percent of traffic occurs during 9-to-5 business hours

40 million US adults regularly visit Internet pornography websites

Yeah, I've been there a long time ago. I see how those gals get paid. I can even imagine how movie starlets get paid for their film work and can imagine money changing hands at theaters/ video rentals/ peep shows etc.
Matt, do you have subscribers to your adult sites or is your revenue just generated from advertisers? Do you pay for the "inventory?"

Sreet kids are NUMEROUS in the former Soviet Union.You have kids as young as 3 roaming the streets.Their parents kick them out because they nee the money to feed their drug or alcohol addictions.Many of these kids become addicts them selves.There are 4,000,000 Russian kids between the age of 11 and 24 who are drug addicts.These kids become prime targets for the porn industry ...no body cares about them ....and the kids need money to supply their habits...40,121 russians died fro alcohol poisioning in 2002.Russia and the Ukraine are major contributers to the porn industry.When I was over in 2002 ,two young girls 12 and 13 were kidnapped and haven`t been seen since from the apartment I was staying at in Kiev.I`d met these two girls and had given them two dolls from Canada just the day before.The police feel,that it was porn related ...and have doubts that they will be found alive.How many of thos women and children on those web sites have a choice???
