Naughty Nicole: The Influence of Pornography

On Today’s episode of Big Trouble in Little Vagina, we’re going to be looking at the many ways that Pornography has influenced us as adults. From the critical to the technological, we’re looking at the influence of Porn. And before we jump into it too deeply… and yes, pun, totally intended, I’d like to apologize to you my dear listeners. I pride myself on being punctual and timely when posting my episodes, and I’m a little late today simply because I was trying to bring you a surprise. While my surprise didn’t pan out for this week, it’s still in the works, but more about that later on, for now… let’s take a deep… hard… look at porn!

For most people, pornography use has no negative effects—and it may even deter sexual violence. And truthfully, back in the good ole days, it used to be tough to get Porn. Renting an X-rated movie required sneaking into a roped-off room in the back of a video store, and eyeing a centerfold meant facing down a store clerk to buy a pornographic magazine. Now pornography is just one Google search away, and most of it is free. Age restrictions have become meaningless, too, with the advent of social media—one teenager in five has sent or posted naked pictures of themselves online, according to the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy.
