Women just as addicted to romance novels as men are to porn?

Don't forget to throw chick flicks into the equation. I think they also can lead to unrealistic expectations.

Chick flicks ruined everything for Darrick Evenson.

It is absolutely true that romance novels are female porn.

Women are stiumulated by fantasy while men are stimulated by visual images.

Anyone who doesn't recognize that knows very little about women.

I've seen a ton of porn, so I think I know a little bit about what women want. They just want to get it on, with as many men or women as possible.

No. Darrick Evenson ruined everything for Darrick Evenson.

One of my TBM friends always talks about how Twilight is Mormon porn for girls. I have never seen girls so excited about a movie or a book before. Just this last weekend some TBM girls were talking about how they just watched twilight again the other day. I said to them that I have never seen twilight before. They were shocked and said ok we will just have to watch it again then.

You never see guys get that excited over a movie that is about to come out. For example the new fast five movie had nice cars, hot girls, and fun action. Most guys were like "I want to see that movie" they wouldn't jump up and down fantasizing about it. I have never seen guys hold up signs saying "Team Megan Fox" or "Team Jessica Alba".

Seriously I am pretty sure these girls get just as turned on when they read romance novels or watch chick flicks as a guy does watching porn.

Girls? Sure. But from my experience in Utah is porn for 30-50yr old women as much or more.

Funny that if I ever talked about how hot Kristin Stewart was in the films the way I've heard some women talk about Edward or Jacob I'd be shouted down as a 40 year old pedophile. My wife assures me that's because women think of "hotness' differently.

Have you been to a Star Wars or Star Trek convention?

No that is a means to an end. They really just want the cable turned back on, the pool cleaned, the speeding ticket torn up, the pizza for free, the car fixed on the cheap, and many other goods and services for less than full price. It's a barter system really. I find it highly admirable as an example of "working class" initiative to function in the capitalist system, creatively creating wealth that can be used when cash funds are low.
