Pause for porno

I was wondering recently how the porn industry is so lucrative when apparently such a small portion of people will admit to having paid for it. Of course C4C is totally representative of the population at large, so let's try to resolve that.

Good question and it is already looking quite clear that everyone sticks to the free stuff. It does baffle me when I'm working at the newsagents and these dirty looking men come in for a top shelf mag. Always pretty awkward serving them especially when there's an old biddy behind them waiting for some imperial mints and the Daily Express. But these mags are all like £3 or £4 at the absolute cheapest and all they are are bloody pictures. Makes you wonder if these guys have the internet at all?

Yeah I mean I've bought a magazine here or there, but never for myself, only ever for the typical "leaving work joke present"-type thing.
I have bought myself a few DVDs imported from the US back in the day (so much cheaper than England) before I found Easynews.
But since then, it's all been free, and considering that the above paid-for examples are but a tiny penis of a drop in a big wet vagina ocean of jizz, I've marked freebies only for sure.

Haha yes. I once saw one where the "lead story" was "pump my crack and fill my slot says Lottie", so I bought it for my friend Lottie. I then tried to explain to the fat man in the newsagent that I was buying it as a joke, which of course makes it even more embarrassing. He said "don't worry mate, it's all natural" which, err, totally put me at ease. Also, I had to actually ask for a bag. Who the hell doesn't want a bag for something like that?

Women are generally not visual like men.

Really? I use AdBlock so I haven't seen advertising for years, but I was under the impression that porn is one of the few things on the Internet which actually makes money rather than just carrying adverts for other things which make money. Dunno why I thought that though.

A common technique that these people do is to buy the cheapest newspaper and slot the mag inside that. Of course the cheapest newspapers at the time are the Sun and Star so they have to put up with the shame of carrying that out too. *cue Daily Mail jokes*

Have you ever asked them? I know a few women who say they watch gay porn. It's probably not as widespread as men watching lesbian porn but it's fairly popular.

Myself and and some friends were in Amsterdam and my friends bought some porn (I didn't as, as has been mentioned, you can get it for free). We were sitting out in Amsterdam square completely baked and when we headed off my friend left his bag with his porn and a bag of mushrooms behind. When we went back we couldn't find it. He replaced the video he'd just lost with another one and when he got home and started watching it it turned out he already had a copied version of the exact same video at home.

I have asked a couple, but it's not usually a conversation starter.
