Numbers

There's too much porn in the world and it's way to easy to access. I remember when I was a kid and found some porn hid away in a drawer in an abandoned shack in the woods. (Well it was an abandoned shack in the suburbs, but still...) It's funny how it goes in cycles. In ancient Greek and Roman times you had eunucks, orgies and gay sex. And no one looked at you in a funny way. Imagine someone asking for a eunuck in today's Western society. The horror!
In the 1910's you were considered naughty if you showed anything above your ankles. "She showed a calf! She's a whore!" In the 1860's it was considered "too much" if you showed your shoulders before lunch. Today it's considering a bit hoochie if you show too much breasts and in the 1600's the corsets pushed the breasts up so far they hid the noses. It's the same with men - Scottish men can wear kilts but anywhere else in the world it's considered weird. Men don't wear tights because they shouldn't have tight pants, but they used to wear tights all the time in the old days. It's the same with shirts and t-shirts. It goes in cycles. Every now and then the school kids all wear shirts and ties and are really properly dressed (not counting shools with uniforms, obviously). Then you have the cycle with jeans and t-shirts and then the dressy style makes a comback again. It's strange when you think about it. So just remember, when sodomies and orgies come back in style - I totally called it first.
