As far as pornography is concerned, I agree that he appears to be speaking from extensive experience.

He gets off on that kind of thing. Don't get him started.

I think why me is either Pee Wee Herman in real life, or is a student of Pee Wee's.

With his fetish for light cotton, I would hate to see him in a textile factory.

Common sense. The pay porn sites that are legit have good virus protection since they take credit card numbers etc. However on all free porn sites there are viruses of different types. They are not safe.

I would be weary to equate the high porn usage in utah to Mormons and not to the other people who may find it difficult to find over the table porn from shops.

So you are speaking from personal experience. Good to know.

Yes. I would even go so far as to say I would be wary of it.

But undoubtedly, there is some mysterious process at work where Utah's huge LDS demographic is unrelated to its rate of online porn subscriptions, to the extent that Utah even surpasses states that have vastly more non-members and much, much fewer Mormons. No doubt it is the 30-40 subscriptions per each non-Mormon in Utah that is skewing the results.

Yeah right. More non members in UT than any other state in the US? I doubt it. Yeah all the porn subsriptions that put UT on the map as consuming the most porn in the US was due to an influx of non-members. Yeah that's the ticket. Pour me another glass of kool-aid and tell me the story about how Jesus really drank grape juice and not wine at the Last Supper.


It also tells me that Utahns are too stupid to figure out how to get free porn online like everyone else!


Ha ha! I thought the same thing when I read the report. Who pays for porn anymore?
Tapirs... Yeah... That's the ticket!

Lets put it this way: It is hard to find a porn shop in utah. That being the case, those who are interested in porn do go to the internet for porn subscriptions. However, in many states it is not that difficult to locate a shop that sells porn dvds etc. Also, I am sure that there are nonmembers hitting the porn sites on the internet. I just don't think that members would risk a constant credit card charge every month. The wife would definitely ask for more details about such a charge.


Dude. No one goes to porn shops anymore. No one wants to look at magazines or buy DVDs its all about the Internet. Its a matter of convenience. Nice try at defending UT's porn habits. Members don't need to risk a constant charge. Most credit card bills are discrete. Also it's not uncommon for someone to get a credit card and hide it from their spouse.

Sex is so taboo in Mormon culture that it is just practically begging its members to dive in.
Tapirs... Yeah... That's the ticket!

Okay let me try this again: It does not matter how discreet they are. It comes every month. The same bill. How to explain it to the partner? To get a credit card only for porn would be folly. Eventually, it will all come out in the laundry. So, what we have are Mormons getting porn credit cards and hiding the card from the spouse so that they can look at internet porn when they are alone. Something is not right with this picture.

Many. However, to get money porn producers need to be very creative. For example, one site does very well because the film is high quality and the scenes are very up scale. It is a husband and wife team that film in malibu, ibiza, and in europe. And because it is upscale they have no problem in getting beautiful young women with their boyfriends to do scenes. People will pay for quality and a feeling of community which the site offers its members.

If Mormons are subscribing to porn this would be one site that would appeal to them because of its natural quality and tasteful porn.

Free porn sites have viruses throughout their sites. One must be careful where one clicks.

I think you forgot to write that a friend of you told you this..
About Joseph Smith.. How do you think his persona was influenced by being the storyteller since childhood? Mastering the art of going pale, changing his voice, and mesmerizing his audience.. How do you think he was influenced by keeping secrets and lying for his wife and the church members for decades?
