WHITE MEN CAN'T HUMP


There is an interesting article in New York Magazine on the effects of men who subsist on a steady diet of porn. It seems the more porn they (or we, I should say) watch, the less good in bed they (we) become.

Fortunately, this hasn't happened to me.

At any rate, the Naomi Wolfe article hits the nail on the head with a paragraph that I couldn't agree with more:

" . . . pornography works in the most basic of ways on the brain: It is Pavlovian. An orgasm is one of the biggest reinforcers imaginable. If you associate orgasm with your wife, a kiss, a scent, a body, that is what, over time, will turn you on; if you open your focus to an endless stream of ever-more-transgressive images of cybersex slaves, that is what it will take to turn you on. The ubiquity of sexual images does not free eros but dilutes it."

  1. That study is probably only about white people. Clearly nothing has been invented that can weaken the Latino libido. Heh!
