Your posts proves you don't have to do a lot to get men to look at porn. It's bloody easy. And when conversion ratios over all has gone to 1-1,000s of the browsers, we in trouble.
I suspect your friend didn't lat them leaf through the magazines on a NY Street. But what the hell.
What did you do in porn years ago?
You can answer the question I posed.

My friend, you have obviously not spent much time on New York City street corners. LOL
Of course they stand there and flip through the mags. They aren't shrink-wrapped (well, the "3 for $9.99" bundles are, but not Barely Legal, Hustler, et al). In fact, when it comes to actual STORES (my friend runs a newsstand on the corner, differant thing) the guys behind the counter tell me they still have "issues" (pun intended, heh) with dudes whacking it in the corner to the mags. Depends on the store, of course, and the neighborhod, but it still happens.
What I did was write interviews, investigative pieces and DVD reviews for the porn mags. This was a side-biz for me because I love sex. LOL Mostly I worked in music and entertainment, but went on a couple porn shoots for Wicked, interviewed Larry Flynt and Al Goldstein, helped Al with some DVD reviews, wrote some funny sex stories for Screw, on and on. Penthouse of the Year parties were always the thing to look forward to back then. LOL
Now I'm a keyboard-pounding monkey. Life eh?
