    (Just light headed talk here) because I was born before internet, I remember the first porn magazine I saw (at 11, I think), the first porn magazine I bought (at 14, because fuck the rules) and the first porn film I watched (at 13 because my father had a video store). Those are definitely burned in my brain.

      Yeah, I remember watching scrambled TV for hours waiting for the few brief seconds it came in clear.

      It only happened twice but it is also seared into my brain.

      Is the porn burned into your mind because the images were memorable or because the achievement was memorable? I’d argue that once porn became readily available and primarily free, it lost most of its appeal. Making it difficult to find is going to make it desirable again…especially to 11-14 year olds.
