    My dad got these black market cable boxes from one of his less than reputable friends way back when. We got literally everything, including full porn channels that weren’t scrambled. They were technically blocked by my parents, but the family pincode was well known.

    I used to watch the porn channels and never could figure out why they were so… Meh for me. Turns out, very gay. Lol

    Once my parents split up we didn’t have those boxes anymore, and I used to watch Cat House and went through the same “why is this so frustratingly close to being good” experience lol

      Quick question…was straight porn like ew gross or just not interesting? I find your porn story really funny and hope I don’t offend by saying so.

        No, not gross. Before I knew I was gay it more frustrating than anything. Like, I knew this was sexual, I knew I wanted to enjoy it, and I knew it made me horny. But it wasn’t enough to cross than line into, like, getting me there and being enjoyable. It wasn’t until I found my brother’s porn magazines that I really enjoyed porn, and that was because of the guys in it, and a few erotic stories in them written from women’s POV. I still didn’t realize I was gay or that it was the guys getting me there until one day, when I was like 13/14 and I had a blackberry. I found a site that had nude pictures of celebrities (some blog, not like a dedicated site), and there were (I’m assuming fake) nudes or Kirk Cameron on a boat. OMG, I got off so hard, and then went into full panic when I realized what that meant. Spent the next few years trying to figure out how to undo it. Lol.

          That’s a really interesting story but …

          Kirk Cameron?

          Mike Seaver from Growing Pains?

            Yup. Had a major crush on him growing up (though I didn’t recognize that’s what it was, exactly), and then found that pic. Lol.

            I have a bit of a type. Well, like 100 types, but one of them is definitely the cute slob or schlub type. Think smells the armpit of a T-shirt before putting it on while listening to green day. Lol always does it for me
