Jan 2012

the people who use porn and prostitutes claim that those of us who don't are the "abnormal" ones with a problem, ie, prudery, pearl-clutching, etc.

when actually WE are the normal ones because we can/do have sex with other people without having to pay them... the abnormal ones are the ones that have to have sex alone with their porn, or pay someone to do it with them.
