Summary

A woman needs a giant wiener to feel satisfied. That's just how it is. But how can she vet prospective partners ahead of time? How can she tell her current man that his average-sized dick just isn't big enough? Ah the hypocrisy...a man is turned on by videos aimed at voyeurs, where people don't know they're being filmed. Then! He was filmed at a bathhouse, and now that the pics are out...he's furious. He knows he's being hypocritical, but what can he do? On the Magnum, Dan chats with Dr. Rachel Gelman about the importance of the pelvic floor in sexual health. And a woman wonders if she should be offended by "unsolicited baby pics" from her ex-boyfriend. 206-302-2064 voicemail@savagelovecast.com This podcast is brought to you by .

0:00.0	You're listening to the micro version of the Savage Lovecast, www.com.
0:06.5	If you're stuck in a relationship quandary, or if you're looking for sexual harmony,
0:16.1	while there's nothing you can't ask on Savage Lovecast.
0:24.6	I don't watch a lot of porn, which is weird, you know, considering, considering all the
0:29.8	advice I've given people about porn over the years and considering the porn festival I've been
0:33.6	curating for the last 15 years. I've always preferred erotica, dirty books, to dirty movies.
0:39.8	Maybe because dirty books were easier to come by when I was a tech oblivious at-risk youth.
0:44.7	There was no internet back then.
0:46.5	There were video players in places you could rent videos, regular and dirty.
0:50.5	But even if I'd wanted to watch straight porn, which was the only kind of porn videos the stores of my neighborhood carried,
0:56.1	I wasn't going to walk into the local video store and rent a porn movie from the guy behind the counter who was going to high school with my older brother.
1:03.7	And to clarify, when I say dirty books were easier to come by, if you'll pardon the expression, I mean they were easier to shoplift.
1:10.6	As an adult, I went back to the store. I stole, they were easier to shoplift. As an adult,
1:11.2	I went back to the store. I stole dirty books from when I was a kid and bought armloads of books
1:15.7	because I'm Catholic like that. Anyway, after the internet came along, after the porn sites came
1:22.0	along, the various porn tubes that upended and destroyed the porn industry, I didn't visit those sites much because I don't
1:28.8	really watch porn. I read about them, of course, and a lot of what I read shocked me. They seemed so
1:36.2	lax the porn tubes. They seemed so easily abused. When we launched Hump, my porn short film festival,
1:43.5	in 2005, we required releases from everyone
1:47.4	who appeared in a film that made it into the festival. You couldn't get your film into Hump,
1:52.0	a festival with no online presence until the pandemic started. You couldn't get your film
1:56.1	into Hump without proving to us that everyone in it was of legal age and had consented to appearing in Hump.
