Now, past 2000. The internet has undone all that, playboy subscriptions are so low they are going into other business ventures to stay alive. People no longer have to pick from their 4 channel TV or 25 magazine rack to see an interest. With the internet, you can see REAL people in your area of interest.
Lets say you like tattoo's on your private parts. Good luck finding that before, you were considered a freak and had no way to find others like you. Now, I bet you can find thousands of people just like you, and you can indulge in that interest to your hearts content. No longer having to touch any mainstream or watch any top40 TV show program with pre-defined beauty standards.
Today, more than ever before, I think there is LESS standardizing of sex, beauty, lifestyle expectations.

I absolutely cannot thumbs up this post enough. Perfect, Remy. In the words of Beetlejuice: You made my millennium. Great fuckin' post, bro.
So true. Today's porn diversity is allowing people to eat what they want for dinner instead of the usual menu of silicone-injected bleach blond bimbos. I'm completely not into blond women with gigantic fake breasts and caked on make-up in ridiculous nightclub outfits. It really does nothing for me.
Praise Allah and Al Gore for the Interwebz. Without this technology, I wouldn't be able to find pale tattooed emo girls with pixie cuts doing delightfully naughty nerdy things on my no-collar budget. A lot of guys tend to find these girls tomboyish or ugly or call them lesbians. I can't get enough of 'em, myself. I don't define a woman's sexual attractiveness based on their hair length and breast size. And masturbating looking at mainstream porn, for me, is no different than eating McDonald's fast food: it doesn't really satisfy what I'm looking for as a quick release snack (and gives me horrible diarrhea).
My point? I don't want what mainstream porn is selling... and thanks to the diversity of material out there... I don't have to take it.
