Current music:They Might Be Giants, "The End of the Tour"

Won't someone think of the CHILDREN?!
I come bearing more Lede wank. Today, the Lede posts about how the kids of today are getting an eyeful of pr0n online:

It will probably come as no surprise to most Internet users that a new survey, published in the February issue of the journal Pediatrics (an abstract is available here), found that nearly half of all young people reported exposure, intentional or otherwise, to online pornography.

Forty-two percent of the 1,500 youngsters (ages 10 to 17) who were surveyed by telephone between March and June 2006 reported such exposure. Two-thirds of those who were exposed said the exposure was “unwanted,” according to the study; the exposure occurred most often when using file-sharing programs to download images.
The very first poster in the comment thread brings the wank:
This problem would be easy to solve if mom’s behaved like moms by taking proper care of their children. Children need close parental supervision, particularly maternal, all the way through high school. They don’t get it when mom’s off working full time and returning home so tired she just wants to chill out.
And they're off!
Wow Mark- You sure feel threatened by working women… “Beats me why women think having a career is such a big deal”… How stupid are you? Your question is the same a women asking men why we need to have a career? Why don’t you stay at home and take care of kids?
And that's just the beginning.

Reminds me of when I was thirteen and attempting to print out fanfic porn, all the while trying to keep my father from reading it.

It amuses me that I, who read voraciously, entirely missed out on the Harlequins and started out on fanfic.

A good deal of fanfic is probably more tasteful.

My junior high school was next to the public library, so after I worked my way through the children's section, I started on the adult. When I was 13 I checked out a copy of a Harlequin romance novel because I thought the cover was pretty. Got to the sex, shrugged and skipped over it.

My mother then sees the book with my things and proceeds to have the fit to end all fits. So what do I do? Naturally re-read the book making sure to pay extra special attention to the sex scene, then checked out more and hid them under my mattress. When I was 15, I discovered my dad's porn stash in a locked toolbox in their closet.

Teen: Yeah, I was like downloading with that, like, fileshare, and this porn I so didn't want totally saved itself to my hard drive.

Interviewer: And can I ask what you were downloading?

Teen: Different porn.

And there's always that perennial favorite, Flowers in the Attic. WHY was that book in my middle school library? I was like, 11 when I read that. They had all the sequels, too. My friend, who went to a Catholic school on the East coast, also had FitA in her middle school library.

"Is... is she having sex with her BROTHER?"

I'm still slightly weirded out that my sixth grade math teacher recommended "Go Ask Alice" to me. Yes, he thought I'd be very interested in a book about drugs and prostitution.

I must've been a fucked up kid and just not realized it. Or he was trying to hit on me.

I remember grabbing that from my godmom's 'to sale' pile, and wow, was that a fucked up book for a 11ish year old to read. Seriously, wtf is up with people? No, wait, that was like 13, because the first VC series I read was the Landry ones. Which was still just as fucked up.

Regarding children seeing porn on the internet: parents (both fathers and mothers) can place controls on websites. There is plenty of free pornography for those who are searching for it, including teenage boys.

And girls. Don't forget the girls.

Did they ask how many teens were /writing/ porn? 'Cause, seriously? I was RPing kinky stuff well before the legal age. Infact, my mother caught me writing gay prostitution fanfiction at 15.

Dad had porny novels and Mom had a whoooo~le stack of those prehistoric 'hisotical fictions' which more often than not had to with a pretty prehistoric girl being OMG!takenagaisntherwill, then saved by Sexy Considerate Lover.

I remember one was all about some chap's giant cox0r of fertility. (Also, he had a parrot.) Him, and his giant peen (but not the parrot) went around sexing up the stone-age country lasses and saving our heroine from rapists bad d00ds.

Those things were terrible.

I want to know what they were thinking, making their sample size between 10 and 17. Because the 10-13 range will get you a whooooole different set of answers than the 14-17 range.

I mean, basically what this statement boils down to is, "In a group where some people have undergone puberty, some people are also interested in sex."

I mean, GOSH. WHO'D HAVE THUNK.

Heh, I discovered the pronz at eight. My grandparents had a pile of books...and I read 'em. There was this one trashy horror novel called "Rats!" that had a graphic oral sex scene.

And then rats ate them.

All I remember was going "Holy damn, this is the awesomest thing since awesome ever awesomed." or the like.

Same year: Found a page o' pronz in our backyard (was my brother's). It had Long Dong Silver. And lesbians. It ruled.

I asked my dad was a hooker was later that day. He said "a aldy who takes care of men". I spent two years thinking that hookers were adult babysitters.

I think I have the worst story. I mean, I'd read sex before, but this is awful.

My mom wrote a novel, and it was more of a historical, but she put sex in it so that she could sumbit it to the romance novel publishers. I was proofreading it, and she said I should skip the sex scenes (I think there were two) but I didn't skip the first one because I was curious and OMG I JUST READ SEX THAT MY MOM WROTE REWIND REWIND.

Of course, she also took away the romance novels in the hall when she caught me with one and I denied I was reading it. D:

Children need close parental supervision, particularly maternal, all the way through high school.

Alternately, people could just accept that, on occasion, high schoolers will look at pictures of nekkid people, and somehow (mostly) manage not to become warped serial killers.

Or not. Close maternal supervision is way more fun!

I laughed so hard when I heard about this report on the morning news show. The anchors said it with more of a frowny-face voice than they did when they reported that L.A. is currently on fire. Pr0n >>>>>>>>>>> fire in terms of danger, apparently.

And high school aged kids need to be closely supervised at all times? Are they deliberately trying to raise basement dwellers who will never be able to cope with the outside world?

Porn video, Teenage Madame, hiding in the back of the cupbaord. Sadly, the tape ran out halfway through and I never know how it ended. Shut up, I know it ended with sex. There was a storyline too!

This problem would be easy to solve if moms behaved like moms by taking proper care of their children

... and by hiding dad's porn from the kiddies?
