I just ran across an interesting blog (and no, I wasn’t looking for it–it was sent to me in an email). It’s by a woman who works the counter, for $6.50 an hour, in a p0rn video store. Very fascinating insights into (the sometimes dark side of) human nature and, from what I sampled of it, it’s not X-rated–just R.

From yesterday’s post (note that the blog is upside down–the most recent is at the bottom, and it started back in February, and there don’t seem to be any permalinks).

Here’s what I’ve learned in my year-and-change as a p0rn clerk: men like p0rn.

Admittedly, my sample is skewed because many men come to our store just for the p0rn and have other accounts elsewhere, but almost all of the men that come in do eventually go down to the p0rn section. And I don’t mean “almost all” in the 90% sense, I mean all but maybe two since I’ve started working there.

This is a lesson because I now understand that pretty much any man I date is going to at least occasionally rent and enjoy p0rn. I don’t think a lot of women have fully dealt with that. If one reads the advice columns, a lot of women can’t even deal with the idea that their mate m@sturb@tes at all. Ladies, please. Chill out.
