See, I thought teenage poultry porn would be much higher.

Meh, that’s nothing. Try doing a search for “pornosaurus”. It’s both really really bad and really really funny at the same time.

I think also the number of searches are heavily biased against what people seek regularly.

The following is a gross oversimplification but is perhaps illustrative: let’s say I like plain boy-and-girl-fuck porn.

I do one search. I obtain a zillion url’s. I try a few of them. I find several sites with regularly updated material. I go back to them time and time again over a period of (say) a year before I get completely bored and do another search.

One time in that year, because I am a curious teenager, I type “animal porn” into a search engine. I check out a few of the hits, gross myself out, sate my curiousity and never go back.

Your stats would show me as liking animal porn as much as straight porn. But clearly, that is an utterly inaccurate picture.

Hmm, this is AOL. I think they search for different things than people using google.

Dave Barry once wrote that sex is so omnipresent on the Web that if you did a search for “Porn about having sex with goats that are on fire,” before long you’ll get an automated message asking you to clarify, “What kind of goats?”

[QUOTE=Little Nemo]  
With all these people looking for “teen porn” and “teen sex” I guess there must be a lot of twenty year old women feeling desperate and lonely now that their peak years are past.  
[/QUOTE]

Not really. If you just go looking for “porn”, you’re going to end up with a lot of sites featuring women with the traditional “porn star” look: huge, fake tits, big hair, and way too much makeup. Some of us don’t find that appealing at all; some of us like smaller breasts and a more natural look. The stuff typically classified as “teen porn” generally features the smaller-breasted, more natural models who don’t look like “porn stars” - in other words, girls you might actually meet in real life. And they’re “teens” only by virtue of some of them being 18 or 19. The “teen” porn models usually fall between the ages of 18 and 25.

It’s out there. Not to mention Gandalf porn. And Orc porn. And Orc-on-elf porn. Really.

I do recall a rather funny picture titled “Frodo discovers the power of the One Ring”. Galadriel is giving Frodo a blow job while he dangles the Ring on it’s chain over her head, and he’s saying, “And if you use your tongue right, maybe I’ll let you _touch_ it !”

Then there’s Zerg porn and Xenomorph porn and Borg porn and dinosaur porn and Klingon porn and World of Warcraft porn . . .

With link to the video in the report. (not porn in that funny video, except an R rated frame at the end and NSFW lyrics)

Well, there is no deabte here.

My first thought was **IMHO** , but it seems to be discussing (somewhat) a _genre_, I guess it actually belongs more in **Cafe Society**.

Sorry, Dex.
