Breaking Down the Walls

It used to be that any type of Porn was harshly and severely looked down upon in polite society, was spoken about only in the softest of judgmental whispers, and took place in only the most questionable and seedy locales. Welcome to 2011 where soft core and hard core porn alike have taken their valued, and not so maligned, places in our societal entertainment options.

No longer is someone who enjoys indulging in surfing for porn on the Internet, or reading a copy of a magazine dedicated almost exclusively to sex, or searching for hot horny people to hookup with online, considered a pervert who should hide themselves until after dark, and of course only go about wearing a creepy tan raincoat made out of some cheap and inferior fabric. Today, these people may be your local grocer, your mailman, your check-out person at the supermarket, your local crossing guard or even your local elected official. Gasp.

These days, not only is pornography enjoyed by a wide variety of people from all walks of life, but our celebrities and television personalities seem to enjoy it too. Look at the number of celebrity sex tapes that end up floating around freely on the world wide web. Whether they are released intentionally for publicity, or leaked by distrustful people close to the stars themselves, it seems very rare that having a sex tape actually harms someones career. The result is usually quite the opposite. Many people teetering on the brink of becoming stars have been pushed over the edge to fame and fortune by a hot sex tape, and our society, for the most part, is perfectly fine with this. We have become, as a society, much more open minded and accepting when it comes to viewing sex, talking about sex, and just behaving as sexual and sensuous beings in general.

Queen Victoria would most definitely not have approved, darling, but everyone else seems just fine.
