LOL consider locking this one '-)

It takes all kinds . . . and we are all very soon in another country when we try to walk others' paths and think with others' expectations.

Also you are happily married :-) You two each found your soulmate and you are a team. Your journal is ample evidence.

I work at a porno store, even though I personally don't like porn. I don't think sex is dirty, I am inquisitive enough to have learned some basics so I can advise people and sometimes figure out what they are trying to ask me where to find, and in many ways I look at it like working at a library - most of the books in the library are of no interest to me, either.

I doubt there is any way to test the hypothesis that the net is full of porn (usually expressed as "The internet is for porn") but recall the other Internet Rule of Thumb: "If it exists, there's porn of it." And wow, have I seen some stuff . . . there are things undreamed of by you or me in the mind of manhuman. But it's important to note that a not insignificant reason is it's practically impossible to define porn. I'm sure some of the comics I've read with pleasure are porn to some people . . . and I'm not even into manga. But there is undoubtedly more of it than you think. Maybe more than I think. For example, IRC is riddled with mating channels. A lot of users think that's what it's for. That came as a surprise - I was, and am, using it to talk to fellow heathens :-)

I don't understand exhibitionism either, but yes, it's surprisingly common (judging by some experiences I've had at the store).

Humans are so amazingly diverse. I see our variety as a good thing, but I am aware that it is also the source of some of this sexual frenzy - people are scared they will never find their soulmate and are displaying/sifting in desperation.

Which is probably why Facebook is valued so highly.

I will shut up now and write a Wikipedia article :-)
