Web-site Porn Attracts Women By The Millions

from the toss-out-the-stereotypes dept

Beck writes "Maybe women don't want to be seen visiting the adult book store in the red light district, but they're flocking to adult web sites. According to Nielsen NetRatings, nearly one in three visitors to adult web sites is a woman. The news article goes on to describe how some women think it is healthy and normal, and others think it can lead to problems. In any case it appears to be a common misperception that it is only men who visit pornographic web sites. There are a few interesting anecdotes in the article, including one where the editors of Today's Christian Woman magazine found in a survey that 34 percent of their readers had intentionally visited porn sites."

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

    How many women look up to these models? How many of them are on an Atkins diet?

    Link Exchange

    Hello,

    We represent the adult dating sites SexDatePersonals.com and HornyMatches.com.

    We took a look at your site recently and are interested in a link exchange.

    Our offer is actually quite interesting, a 3 way link as opposed to a reciprocal link. You link to HornyMatches.com and we link to you on SexDatePersonals.com. We offer the best type of link exchange there is and urge you not to pass this opportunity up.

    Also, SexDatePersonals has a very nice directory that we have been building so you are sure to find a category there for your site. If not, please just make your suggestion to us.

    Last thing is we would like our link to look like this:

    Adult Personals [hyperlink]
    www.hornymatches.com [website address]
    Adult Personals [description]

    Have a great day and we look forward to doing business with you in the very near future,

    Warmly,

    Michael Hall
    RBGWebGroup
