Suicide Girls ruined porn for me.
This of course raises two questions:
1. How did it do so?
2. And why do I then have a subscription to the site?
The answer to the first is that Suicide Girls is more real than any other adult site out there. The purpose of pornography is to stimulate fantasy. Do many, perhaps most, of the sets here seek to do the same thing? Yes. However, all the pictures seem more playful, more artistic and more personal. More than that, the journals give every one of the women on this site a voice. None of them will ever just be body parts because some of their personality comes out in their writing. In fact, I get the impression that the blog is just as important as the images. Someone posted recently, I think it was Mary, and she wrote that (as I paraphrase) it makes her uncomfortable when people recognize her and do not say anything. She would much prefer if they just talked to her, seeing as how they already knew something about her from her journal. Arguably any representation of a human is objectification, but when something comes along that supports the individuality of that person as well as showing who they are in the physical sense, it is rare and exciting and makes all else seem dull and kind of silly to me.
So now that I very rarely feel the need to pleasure myself while looking at nudey pictures, why maintain my subscription to this site after its first week? For one, the community based around Suicide Girls fascinates me. In general, I detest internet journals of all kinds, but there is a warmth and honesty here that I find refreshing. Secondly, in this era of a Gap owned Hot Topic and a dying and coopted counter culture, it is wonderful to see something with a punk rock, grass roots feel and ethos be successful. Nevertheless, the women are still the most important reason. They are all works of art, in both the literal sense (many of them are canvasses with all their tatoos) and in more of an abstract expression of beauty. The recent set of Viola is a perfect example. The lights and the colors and her presence and body into an amazing celebration of the female form. Thus, it is for an aesthetic release and not a sexual one that I visit the site. Well, with one or two exceptions. I would have to be a dead gay eunuch to not be a little tickled by that set of Apnea with the sex toy. Anyway there it is. I hope that did not sound too pretentious. Maybe it is all just a rationalization so that I can look at boobies and say it proudly no matter who is listening. I tend not to think so. There happens to be a fine set just fifteen minutes away that I can see anytime, and they happen to be attached to a wonderful young lady who I am quite enamored of.

P.S. The subway trains in Boston look like great big caterpillars.

The El in Chicago looks kind of like a caterpillar, too.
The thing on my bathroom mirror is a yellow rabbit face. My housemates have stuck them on every glass surface in the house. They're really funny-looking.
