I've always found our nation's obsession with sexual deviation interesting, and I've been keeping an amused eye on the subject of the Pornography industry. I don't see any other nation where porn has become something of pop culture. In Europe sex is looked upon much more differently than here in the United States, and although I'm sure they have an adult entertainment industry as well, I can't imagine it being as expansive as ours. Upon doing some reasearch, I found out that pornography is a 1-billion dollar a year industry. And I have to ask myself, "Why"?
I think it's our society's view on sex, and most of all how it changed with the "Free Love" movement. Before the 60's there was an almost puritanical view of sex. Things changed, we had a revolution, but instead of becoming more knowledgeable, our libidos got so enormous and promiscuity blew up in our faces. And here we are today. With an adult entertainment industry that makes almost a third of the revenues that Hollywood generates. And porn stars who venture into more acceptable lifestyles like winemaking.
