this thread makes wonder what it was like before there was porn? we are living in golden age my friends. these people had to jerk it to black and white photos of these chicks.
this is a quote:
The erotic technological impulse dates back at least to some of the earliest works of art, the so-called Venus figurines of women with exaggerated breasts and buttocks, which were made by firing clay 27,000 years ago -- 15 millenniums before ceramics technology was used for anything utilitarian like pots. When subsequent artists discovered the medium of cave walls, they produced work like the rock carving that archeologists have titled "Nude Woman," etched more than 12,000 years ago at La Magdelaine Cave in France.
The oldest known literature, recorded by the Sumerians in cuneiform on clay tablets, includes poetry celebrating the sweetness of a woman's lips and vulva. In one love song, a Sumerian newlywed instructs her husband how to put his hand on a "goodly place," and she says, "Let me caress you. My precious caress is more savory than honey." This was written nearly 4,000 years before the release of a CD-ROM with a Penthouse model licking her lips as she says, "Let's get interactive."
When Gutenberg's press brought the written word to the masses in the late 1400's, it didn't take long for printers to discover that the masses wanted more than Bibles. A book of erotic engravings depicting lovemaking positions, published in 1524 and suppressed by the Pope, inspired a collection of sonnets by the first modern pornographer, an Italian named Aretino.
