Porn (there, I made you look)

A lot of people like to talk about how porn's gotten more disgusting over the years. They'll talk regretfully about the demure Playboy centerfolds of bygone days, and contrast them with the vulgar, vulgar stuff you can see these days, just by turning the SafeSearch off on Google Images (try typing "wet"). But you know, this is a really unproductive discussion. For one thing, it's been going on for a long time now. Geezers nowadays might regret those tasteful nude images of Marilyn, but back in the golden days of the '60's that they remember so fondly, there were plenty of geezers mourning the demise of the pin-up, and grumbling about swingers, and hippies, with their disgusting "free love". If you go back far enough, you're just going to get to 1920's-era fathers, grousing about flaming youth, and how disgusting Joan Crawford looked, dancing the charleston, and going on and on about how much better the world was, back when boys still fantasized about Harrison Fisher girls. Do you really want to have that conversation?
