before you guys get out your flamethrowers
let me just make a few points.
First, I'm not trying to be the morality police here. I like my porn and my ho's just as much as the next guy.
Second, and this is just speculation, but I think this problem is in some ways uniquely American, rooted in the Puritanical repression of our history. This ties in with what some of you guys were saying about the prevalence of porn overseas. It exists, but it isn't nearly as necessary. Sex is much more readily available over there.
I've been with plenty of prostitutes in Central and South America, and I didn't get the same victim vibe off them as I do with North American prostitutes. Latin American females generally have a much healthier view of sex, and most often engage in prostitution out of economic neccesity, not as an acting out from abuse.
Lastly, the only reason I posted all of this was in respone to Born Loser's question. I hope you're reading this, dude!
