I like female nudity

[illusionofjoy]

When I had a T-1 connection during my college years, I made it my mission, as a good student, to download as much freaking porn as humanly possible. In my eyes, it was free for the taking, therefore I should take as much of it as I could while I could. I was also using my own computer, safe away from the prying eyes and history-searching mouse-fingers of my mother, therefore the fear of getting caught became a non-issue.

I would never consider myself a porn fiend; that distinction would go to my roommate of one semester. This living situation occurred during my freshman year, wherein the young man I was forced to live with quite possibly shattered all previous records held for porn downloads within the span of three months. Even during the four and a half years I muddled through school, I could not hope to catch up with this guy's stamina. Unfortunately, most of his downloads were in the form of fetishes I found inherently distasteful.

In fact, when it came to porn downloads, my bandwidth portion of the naughty bytes seemed downright meager when compared to some of those with whom I co-habituated. During my latter years of college, when I lived in a suite rather than a standard dorm room (separate bedrooms, a "commons room" and a private bathroom), one of my suite-mates had recklessly downloaded and viewed so much porn that every letter of his address bar would auto-fill with a porn site. Furthermore, keying in CTRL-ALT-DEL on his machine would bring up at least a dozen spyware applications running simultaneously. I can only wonder as to where these applications were reporting to, however I'm pretty sure that the reports read something to the effect of, "he's looking at and downloading porn...again!"

Since my living situation changed from the blissful free internet access of college to the drudgery of only being able to go online at work, the library and at the residences of friends, my online porn consumption has dropped considerably. As I intoned previously, I was never much of a porn fiend anyhow. While the mission may have been "to download as much...as humanly possible," the mission turned out to be a failure, as I'd usually be distracted by something else. Suffice it to say that, I prefer having sex to watching it and one can only masturbate so many times. I don't feel particularly hurt by the lack of opportunities to play the sinful downloader.

Therefore, the question comes to mind as to why porn is at the forefront of tonight's topics. This is a good question indeed, as I could be bitching about the drunks in Southside or how frightening it is to drive state route 28. Neither or those topics are particularly interesting, nor are they very titillating.

What I do find interesting and titillating, however, is finding nude photos of someone I've met in Pittsburgh on the internet - and not even on an actual porn site. Thankfully the subject of the photos was female (due to a visit with masochistmonkey, I've seen my quota of penises that aren't mine for the month - another story for another day). It was also a welcome relief that the person posing for the photos wasn't unattractive.

While this isn't the first time that someone I've met in person has appeared nude online, it is the first time it has happened in this municipality. While I find nothing wrong with it as a concept (women getting naked - cool!), it still comes as a bit of a surprise when you suddenly see someone you've met in person in a context that you never expected to see them in. It is as if your whole perception of this person has suddenly been altered. Before, you had no idea what they looked like "under there," but now that is no longer a mystery. Furthermore, you have carte blanche to look under there as many times as your pervy little heart (or loins) desire. Of course, that leaves one open for potential awkwardness should one meet up with the subject of the photograph in the real world. But who cares? For the moment, we've got some great masturbation material!

It was with some amusement that I discovered the picture while surfing the net with missjoi. We prattled about it for a couple of minutes before I made the above comment about masturbation material. Joi then asked me why I would want to wank off to something like that when there were tons of other sites out there specifically for that purpose.

"Well, you can get viruses from those sites," I replied.

"That's somehow seems fitting," Joi said. She has a point.

Okay, whew. I was scared for a second too. I know I've got a few pics out there somewhere. Never believe a man when he says, "No, baby...I just want these polaroids to masturbate to because I love you and miss you when we are apart."

I found a shot of myself on the "am I hot or not" site a couple years ago. Jerk.

But I did find your post rather entertaining and endearing. I also felt the same way when I had a T1 and later, a T3 line at Pitt. Even with DSL, it's hard to resist an occassional stroll through a few dirty sites. :)
