When I was younger I would steal my
older brothers’ dirty magazines and thought it was awesome. Occasionally I
would sneak down stairs late at night and watch Cinemax. I really thought I was
getting away with something. I was young and stupid. As I grew older the
magazines lost their appeal, I realized stuff that they talked about would
never happen to me, until college. I watched an old Cinemax movie, Heavy Metal when I was really young and
saw it some years later, thought to myself, “This movie is crap, the acting
sucks and I actually think I am stupider after watching it.”
Fast forward to the present, I have
a ten year old daughter and I would be extremely upset if she were doing the
things I did. Watching the segments of Deep
Throat in class made me think to myself, “I don’t want my kids exposed to
the.” Twenty years ago I may have thought differently, but now that I am a
parent trying to raise my children “right” I think the time and place for porn
is not where my ten year old can access it. I guess I’m just getting old.
