the small ding dong contest
I know I never post anymore but I haven't given up all hope...
Sex and the Country is about to embark into weirder, sketchier realms. Don't read if you believe that ignorance is bliss.
Thanks to a fabulous childhood friend, I am now reading celebrity gossip blogs. Instead of catching US Weekly and OK! during those 5 minutes at the supermarket lines, I can now peruse daily at my leisure. Before you judge, think about your little guilty pleasure. :p I thought of putting the link up here but I don't want to be accused of leading someone astray. You'll have to do your own work into the world of debauchery and mindless junk.
Sometimes on this blog, they put up videos. They range from latest music videos (ew, Stars are Blind) to celebrity home-made videos to Star Jone's embarrassing exit from The View. There happened to be a video of the Howard Stern Show featuring a "Small Penis Contest." The caption was rather intriguing so I started watching it. It was bizarro twighlight zone! A bunch of naked men of all physical proportions (in terms of body stature) lined up and interviewed about their knobs of nothingness. I had to share these small wonders with someone so I pulled the person closest to me - Bryan.
Of course, he disapproved.... "Peggy, what are you watching?! That's pornographic!"
This leads me to our topic of discussion: what IS pornography?
Does it count as pornography if you can't see the object in question? I posed the question back to him, "If you see a picture/video of a woman whose chest looks like a man, does that count as porn?" and "There was nothing sexy about what I was seeing." It turned me on as much as a bearded woman would. With all the academic ventures into defining pornography, I'd like to add my own modifiers. I don't think it counts if there is no suggestion of sex, if there is no sexual object in sight (breasts, penis, and vagina, etc.), and if it's not a Victoria's Secret ad.
As always, I left him speechless.
Peggy: 10, Bryan: 0
