Porn blog job
Thanks to everyone who applied for the porn blogging gig, or sent suggestions. There certainly was a lot of interest: 55 emails. One surprising discovery: more than half of the applicants, and the existing sexblog authors, are women. For which there can be several explanations: modern women are past political correctness, and write about sex and porn with all the gusto of a guy; or guys enjoy reading sex writing by women, and that's one of the few media niches in which there is a female advantage; or else, for the modern guy, fondness for porn is still embarrassing, while for a woman it is a statement of liberation.
