It is human nature to become desensitized to virtually anything when exposed to it on a constant basis. So, even in the porn industry, there is a constant search for new approaches to the subject.

My bet is an offshoot of Santa Porn featuring Composite Santa; assuming Robot Chicken hasn’t already done it.

Forty years ago my wife sent me to the video store to get a pornographic videotape. She had a friend visiting for the weekend who was a virgin, had never seen a naked man, and was horny as could be.

I returned with a videotape in a plain box, with a title alluding to College Hijinxxx. I put the movie in, adjusted tracking(?!), adjusted the room lights, and sat down to enjoy the feature film.

It started out with two girls in the dorm who are lonely. They do all sorts of things with each other. Then, their phone rings; someone warns them that the Dean of the college is on the way over to discuss their poor grades. Aha! Here comes the male lead. Nope, the Dean is a 65 year old woman who demands that the two students satisfy her and she’ll overlook their poor grades.

Ninety minutes of hardcore sex and not a single male.

The first porn I ever saw was _Alice in Wonderland: An X-Rated Musical Comedy_(1976), followed by _Deep Throat_(1972) and _The Devil In Miss Jones_(1973), so it has been ridiculous for as long as I can remember.

There are people who get off from the feel of wool on their skin.

It’s relatively likely that human sexuality works about the same as “imprinting” with birds. Once you move away from scents (e.g. chemical reactions) to visual and other signals, there’s really nothing reliable to trigger sexual attraction. Encoding 3D image data into DNA is probably not something that evolution had figured out. We learn the “correct” signals through culture and neural pathways being primed and ready to connect everything up at some particular moment of development.

It doesn’t always come to the traditional answer though and, likely, there’s no way to force any one person’s brain to go down the traditional path no matter how hard you try, and no way to change it one the connection is formed.
