This Comes for the Ask a Black Guy Anything Mailbag (Actually an Email).

"Why do guys like porn?(sic)"

I assume this is from a lady. Why would a guy ask, eh? Not really a black guy question, more of a general guy question. It'll do.

Hmmmmmm.... Thinking cap on.

There are a couple of reasons.

First and foremost, men are visual creatures, so looking at what they desire comes naturally. The women ( or men for that matter, I'll be fair here) don't even have to be nude. It just appealing to look. I guess men are just wired that way. Maybe that why there are some many men's magazine with women in bikinis and underwear, maxim, FHM, etc. Of Course, there is always the stuff that come in the plastic wrap and sits on the high self. Why do these things sell? Because the women are approachable, sure some of them are very pretty, but I don't think that the main reason. In these books, magazines, tape and DVD are women who seems available. Not for real, but it the illusion the guys want. A woman who always seems available, ready, horny, and doesn't place to many demands on the male pysche (You know like puttting two coherent sentences together).

Second, Your husband, boyfriend, guy across the hall, next door neighbor, even your father, has some deep dark fantasy, probably invovling a midget, lime jello, and lots and lots of leather. This is the one they don't even tell spouses, or girlfiends, because they are affraid their lady friend will run shieking from the room. Now here is the kicker, there is a magazine, video series, or website devoted just to his little dark fantasy. So for the cost of a movie rental he can feed his little monster and the world still turns safely and none the wiser. That why the porn industry made 7 billion dollars last year.

Comments anyone?
