How mainstream is porn these days?

Posted by apostropher

This mainstream:

In its 183-year history, the august Oxford Union debating society has heard the wisdom of Winston Churchill, Ronald Reagan and Mother Teresa. But until now, its members have yet to hear from anyone with quite the same resume as Ron Jeremy, star of 1,700 adult films, including "Bang Along With Ron".

"As far as I know it is the first porn star to address the Oxford Union. I'm 99 percent sure of that," Peter Cardwell, spokesman for one of the English-speaking world's most respected debating societies, told Reuters.

Jeremy, who claims to have slept with more than 4,000 women, will address the union on Wednesday, joining many British prime ministers, three U.S. presidents and political figures from the Dalai Lama to Malcolm X in its archival guest list.

"Ron is the biggest and apparently the best in the business, so I'm sure he'll have some fascinating stories to tell," said Oxford Union librarian Vladimir Bermant, who organised the event.

So, my good British readers, do you guys pronounce it hedgehog or 'edge'og?

Isn't about time we stopped using sleeping as a metaphor or euphemism for sex. Sorry, that one just bugs me. I call Ron Jeremy on it. I doubt his claim to have slept with 4000 women. Had sex with 4000 women? That's a different matter, post- or pre-Clinton definition.

When they say "the biggest in the business," is that literal or figurative?

It's literal - he's like 240 lbs of fat and hair and with all the warmth and charisma of a sewer rat. Especially, when he twitches his nose.

Still, eleven inches is eleven inches and I suppose in our technologically and now morally superior culture, paper sacks work both ways.

What was dissertation did he present?
"I stretched my dick in a vaccuum tube and made millions screwing whores even though I'm ugly and gross as a babboons ass?"

Ron Jeremy says he has slept with 4001 women. He also said only one has slept with him for free, his wife. The other 4000 were paid to do it. He's a damn funny guy.

My first experience (at 17) with Ron Jeremy involved a spoof of the movie “The Terminator” (a.k.a. “The Penetrator”) and him riding around town on a moped picking up girls in convertibles. Later in the movie, I remember thinking to myself that it was awfully unfair that such an ugly, hairy, monkey-man could be involved in one of the sexiest 3-ways I had seen, because ohmygod did he have a big...
It really cemented the fact that porn was not made for women as lots of the men in porn are pretty gross looking. I guess that helps with the whole fantasy that no matter how ugly you are, fellas, a good looking slut will sleep with you if your member is long enough?

Indeed, porn is not made for women, but conversely, a healthy percentage of women in porn are pretty gross-looking as well.

Everything is clear to me now! Now I understand why my boss wouldn't allow me participate with my co-worker Jeremy and teach a Ron/Jeremy English language class.

I believe it's pronounced "stoat."

Someone should retrace Peter Cardwells steps through Portadown College and they will soon realise what porn really is! I vividly remember his advance towards me and his fetish with urine and his obsession with other people ingesting his.
HE IS A FRAUD!!!!

Looks like your preview button is losing its anti-spam function.

But it is interesting to see some of these old posts pop up.
