I was curious. And couldn't find anything to teach me. I was in junior high school when Hustler showed the first "pink" and EVERYBODY wanted to see what it looked like.
But yet, here we are...our first reaction to the "11 year olds watching porn" is shock and horror.
And we don't even raise an eyebrow when they surf over to the torrent site and download one of the "Saw" movies or some other movie full of violence and torture.
I think we have it backwards.
But being raised here in the U.S. as a Southern Baptist...that fucking brainwashing they gave me as a kid STILL poisons my perceptions. As y'all know, I fight against that constantly. I refuse to allow my "conditioning" by our hung up society to rule me.
But even so...my first reaction to this story was "Oh my GOD!"
It should have been: "That a boy! Learn about sex. It's natural and it's good. And at age 11 you SHOULD be curious about it"

agreed but i would hope a kids first exposure to porn/sex isn't something like facial abuse or gangbang girls 37..
