Well, they have a better business than most businesses, so it stands to reason, no?

I honestly don't understand how treating women as unclad ogleables is a good business practice.

Ogling women is part of the nature of being a man; if we glance or stare at a woman's ass in the grocery store without her consent or knowledge, which we all do, is that somehow better than if she were a paid and willing professional porn star? $500 for an hour worth of work at entry level with no experience is pretty fair.

Also, btw, they have gay porn on youporn, so they're equal opportunity, they're not just exploiting women.

Glancing at someone's behind in the supermarket is qualitatively different from porn. As far staring at buttocks goes, you're right that we've all done it, but does that make it a Good Thing?

Anyway, not sure if this is OT or not, so I'll stop here. :-)
