Good point. Disturbing things happen in real world, so it's sometimes necessary to write such things as well to reveal the dark corners of life and human mind. The examples of this articles are perfect. Porn and smut, on the other hand, serves no such purpose and is simply meant to satisfy reader's (sick) fantasies. I still find it strange though, why so many people read porn (aka Fifty Shades of Gray) instead of watching it on Internet which is much faster way to achieve the same effect.
- soylentcola 11y agoI think different people respond differently to various stimuli and sexual stimulation or titillation is no different. Just as some folks find reading the book to be more engaging than watching the movie, I'd imagine that depictions of sexual fantasies may be more appealing in written form rather than visual, depending on the person. The more I learn about people, the more I realize that the variety in sexual preferences and practices is pretty wide.
