Why America's Outdated Morals Won't Let Porn into Mainstream Business
 

This article at Nerve explores the disconnect between innovators and proponents of new porn ventures and the stifling of those new ventures.

I'm not moralizing; but other people do have a right to not be swamped with adult material everywhere they turn.

Right...like Carl's Jr doesn't use blatant sex to sell hamburgers.

Car companies and gun companies as well.

Let's see...who else...oh that's right - EVERYBODY!

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

Good article :thumbsup

I'll be putting up my Carl's Jr links right away then.
Do they have hosted flv?

:1orglaugh

I wonder how much Google themselves have indirectly earned from the adult industry over the years.

Would Google be where it is today if not for people using it to search for porn?

No it would not.

thats just how it is. taxpaying public at large does not like porn. those bible thumpers...

I watched a violent R rated film in the theater yesterday (2 guns) and some idiots sitting in the row in front of me brought in a kid that was around 8 years old. They literally jumped up and covered his eyes when there was a scene showing a woman's breasts but had no issues with people being shot in the head, blown up, etc.

The internet isn't like that, adds containing "sex" are everywhere but not porn. Just because a few terms it comes up often doesn't mean there being bombarded, they also have the privilege of ignoring it.

THey may voice it, but the numbers say different, and thats the problem with people 50+, there all hypocrites :1orglaugh .

I have a friend who does a similar thing. He has two kids, 10 and 12, and he won't bat an eye about letting them watch a movie where people are blow up, shot, stabbed or killed in various ways, but if there is nudity in a movie he doesn't want them exposed to it.

When I ask him about it he says that he thinks his kids understand that the violence is just pretend and it won't "corrupt" them, but somehow nudity will.

Exactly, let's ask Epoch how many people look at porn.

Sorry but I don't really get the point of this article..

At the end of there are lots of Hedge funds and VC's that invest into adult material. Fact is all of these ideas weren't fully thought through. The one lady is trying to get Amazon to process for her amateur porn site?

Just looking at it from an investor's point of view with some of these

MLNP.... she wants to create an amateur porn site where user's upload videos (probably find 200 guys here with the same site) but because she thinks she's changing the world of sex she thinks Amazon should change their terms to suit her product....fail

Bang with friends.... graph search app that connects people based on their FB profile. Good idea, not unique or proprietary. The traffic is based off Facebook who does not allow adult content... so the name bang with friends is probably not the best branding.

Tits N Glass.... this to me was the dumbest one. I guess they thought that Google was going to create an entirely new marketplace for Google glasses instead of using the extremely sucessfull Android market. And while these guys came up with a stupid name and will bitch and complain about how unfair google is, SnapChat will come in and make a killing by having something that everyone uses for porn.

Really if you were an investor would you drop a dime into any of these companies?

"Porn and sex are recession-proof," said Cindy..... OK Cindy sure Porn is.

It's not really violence if you pretend to kill someone.
It's not really nudity if you pretend to be naked.

The violence is pretend.
The nudity is not pretend.

:)

But does a 10 year old know this? Maybe they do. I just think it is strange that a person thinks their kid can see endless hours of violence and it have no negative affect on them yet if they see a boob somehow that is going to fuck them up.

Sounds like your average American idiot parent.

I checked out the Make Love Not Porn site. Not really impressed. Not really innovative.

May be too much sex. Prostitutes in England are having to get another job.

Nope. Just too much jacking off to full length stolen content.
No need to buy pussy anymore, dick too sore.

:1orglaugh

They aren't. They used to. Five years ago every where you turned there was porn. Now... Not so much.

Quoted for truth. :thumbsup

.

one needs only to look at games... incredible amounts of violence (Hitman Absolution, GTA, etc...) and that joke of an M rating don't stop any kid from playing it.
the only mainstream sexy game is lame ass Leisure Suit Larry.


running around with an ax killing everyone (Hitman) is OK... making sweet monkey lovin' is not... what fuk*d up society we live in.

but maybe the government is in on this... they need their young to be ready for the army... lots of natural resource... errr... lots of places need democracy.

:stoned make luv not war!

yeah, but if you cut someones head, that all right ... you cant post photos of your wife breast feeding your child, but you can post how you are cutting head of your wife with no problem ... stupid ... stupid by stupids ... btw, that was an article in czech newspapers today if someone read that, not from my head ... but its still stupid as hell ... :)

The problem with this is that it's separate from what surfers are already encouraged to do on social media (including porn tubes), without ever having to think about money. The goal is to divulge private information in a "safe" environment, and not to pay for the privilege of doing so.

And the site looks like shit.
