Unfortunately,Lauralee either begins threads about things she knows less than nothing whatsoever about and/or is playing at not knowing anything at all about,or replies to threads with completely ill educated (one might as easily say UNEDUCATED!) or talks about things that she does seem to know about,but due to her supposed age,couldn't possibly know about.Either way,this is a problem!
Okay, Lauralee, here's a brief history of pornography...
From the dawn of mankind,there has been pornographic sculptures,paintings,paintings on vases,pottery, gnetsky (sp?),cartoons,coins for whore houses,papyri,cuneiform clay tablets,books,and live sex shows. Even THE SONG OF SONGS,in the Bible,is porn;coming as it does,from even earlier Sumerian/Babylonian poetry.
The ancient Egyptians,Greeks,and Romans had vast public libraries and private ones too. ALL BEFORE GITENBERG EVER LIVED! And before the printing press,there was woodblock printing. Prior to that and even long after the invention of the printing presses, monks copied books,but so did all kinds of other people;including Muslim scribes! The word scribe comes from the Latin word scribere,BTW.meaning to write.There are other meaning,for scribe,besides writer and copyist;one meaning to carve a block of wood. That's referring to wood block cutters,who cut wood, in order to PRINT the written word and illustrations.
Now,instead of telling other posters to shut up and call them idiots and retards and stalkers and rude, because they reply to you with relevant,salient,cogent,educated,well thought out refutations for your posted drivel,go plunder the nearest library and at least try to educate yourself!
Why does every generation think that they are the first to discover sex?
The best description I have ever heard is that porn is about the act and erotica included the emotions and the story behind it.
