The world of pornography – taking things 'lying down'?

Like almost every other bloke on the planet, I've indulged in the viewing of porn- the odd flick here and there. And admittedly, it was rather entertaining.

This might sound ludicrous, but my reason for viewing it was a tad different from many others. I always felt that the performers were attracted to each other, or at the very least, shared a level of healthy comfort. After all, making love is an art, and how can the process occur, without the involvement of abundant emotions?

My idealistic perceptions went bust when I watched a talk show recently, the topic being 'horrors of the adult film industry'. I was shocked to realize that many women are forced into the business, and girls as young as 18 are misled by promises of fame and glamour. Of course, a lot enter the industry by choice, but leaving it is often choiceless. Moreover, in some films, the kind of acts women are made to perform are positively ghastly and the ideas for such performances can only germinate in a mind that is seriously depraved. A particular film titled 'Deep throat' is regarded as an adult film classic. When one reads the story line on wikipedia , it appears that the actors would have had immense fun while shooting for it. However, many years after the movie's release, the lead actress said she was forced to perform those acts by her perverted husband and anyone who watches the film, is, in essence, seeing her get raped.

We all in our own ways support this industry. If there wasn't a demand, there wouldn't be any supply. The next time you find yourself watching an adult film or see it stored in someone's mobile phone, simply ask yourself: Does this really serve me? Am I so desperate?

Wait for the real act, whenever it comes into your life. In all probability, it'll have a great deal of love involved in it. Trust me, the feeling is much better...and cleaner.
