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.

God knows we were never exposed to porn before the Web existed.

The illustrations in "The Joy Of Sex" are really very traumatic when you're a youngin', I gotta say.

I'm just glad I didn't see the new version until I was an adult. Letting someone do drunken water color over the old graphics did not make them better. *shudders*

Off-topic, but I'm easily amused right now, and the way the comments are lined up, it almost looks like the speech balloon from phosfate's icon is being said by your icon.

Men with facial hair like that should not have sex.

Or go out in public, really.

I never, ever, ever used to sneak into my parents' room and take a gander at the very lifelike illustrations. I also never took great care to place the book back exactly where I found it. I also never was gifted this book by my mother a few years ago, a move which certainly did not delight me.

Nope. Not at all.

Yep. Dad's Playboys under the sink never existed. Nor Granddad's National Geographics. Nor Great Granddad's Tijuana Bibles. Nor...

I used to have a decent collection of those, but sadly they ended up 'dissappearing' during the divorce same as my 15+ years in the buying assorted RPG books and gaming modules.

When I think about what ended up missing, I wish I could throttle my ex.

Seriously. I first ran into porn on the internet when I was eleven, which was at least three years after the first time I read one of my mom's smutty novels, which is lord only knows how much after the first time I looked in my dad's drawer full of Playboys or got an eyeful of one of his porn tapes when I pushed play on the VCR thinking one of my movies was still in it.

Yep, I never unwittingly bought two pornographic novels at a white elephant stall when I was in primary school.
