How did stashes of porn end up in the woods in the 1970s and 1980s?

Not only would a dad be unwilling to confront his kid about a missing porn mag, he might also assume his wife tossed it, as would happen in our home. Touchy subject all around.

I’ve done my share of helping teens find my old porn. When I dump a stack of old magazines (regular and porn), I make it a point to place it prominently on top of the stack of paper in the recycling bin at the landfill. Hopefully, some kid will experience the thrill of finding porn as I did when I was a teen. No feeling is as taboo and risque as that was to me at that age, so I figure I’ll pay it forward.

The Onion is addressing the issue of dirty magazines vanishing from our woodlands.

Ha. Happened to me. Found my first Playgirl, soaked with rain (at least, I hope it was rain) in a wooded area of a local municipal park when I was like 11.
