I jerked it to the Hanson mmbop video back in the nineties.

Found out later the girl was a boy.

You can judge all you want, but the general thing is that horny teenagers will jerk it to almost anything.

..........genuinely trying to figure out how this relates to the topic at hand.

That a porn ban does not work and people will find a way around it.

When I was a kid there weren't all this free porn sites and most of them were paid.

So you would go to some shady site where people shared passwords. This might make a comeback

The internet is based on this underlying trust. You are a true custodian!

Nice to know that I'm not the only one. It was quite a surprise when I realized that they all are boys/men.

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 1 points 1 month ago

There's more out there that would never admit it because of that. Which is silly when you think about it.
