Only one in ten men surf net for porn? Really?

11 11 2010

According to some survey, only one in ten men surf the net for porn.

The bit that probably escaped everyone’s attention is the word ‘mostly’, squirreled down in the third paragraph, handily hidden away from the sensationalist headline.

One in ten? Balls. EVERY man out there who has access to the internet uses it for porn. Some simply more than others. Maybe those other nine guys check their mail or hit cricinfo, maybe some of those metrofags update their Facebook profile first. But make no bloody mistake, every single one of them will use it, at some point, to ogle boobs.

Thing is, porn doesn’t get that much screen time because really, let’s be honest. How long does it take to rub one out? Five minutes? Ten at most? As opposed to the half an hour spent prior on Wikipedia looking up the blueprints to the Millenium Falcon? There’s a reason most of those tube8/youporn/etc clips aren’t usually much longer than 5 minutes.
