Who remembers porn before the Internet?

[bergentony]

I remember the first time I bought a play girl magazine. There was no Internet or even HBO yet. I went to a news paper store all the way on the other side of town and quickly bought it along with two straight porn mags. The clerk said something about some for me and some for my girlfriend. He put them in a brown paper bag and I rode home as fast as I could to jerk off.

A month later I went back and picked up. Penthouse and a Blue Boy mag....much hotter than Playgirl lol.

Well it wasn't porn, but before I had internet I would "admire" the Men's Health magazines, and the men's underwear ads.

I bought a play girl and a playboy at the bookstore too.
And found the video clearance center, no VHS over 5.99! No booths in the back room, but behind the curtain was the porn movies and magazines.
I liked the little 3 pack of small cheap magazines, printed on newsprint,neither the dirty stories.
Also bought a few books of gay erotic stories at legitimate bookstores; I still remember some of those today.

In my town there was this fruit stand tended by a hunky and somewhat scary black man. He sold local fruit and porn. I was probably about 13 years old when I made my first purchase. I very nervously grabbed what I wanted and of course had to buy some fruit too, paid and not a single word was said. I went home and, well, you know the rest...

When I was in college my sister and her husband used to have a stash of playboy/penthouse and playgirl magazines. When I had the chance I would sneak them into the bathroom and looked at the pictures . Had never seen such hot guys before. And once I was at a store and when I was getting in my car there was a blue boy magazine on the ground. Never had heard of it but took it back to my dorm room and when my roomie was out I would spend hours enjoying the naked men. Only video porn was on grainy 8 mm films. Oh if we only had VHS back then!!

 

[jktoooo]

Haha...adult book and video stores. Tons in vegas at the time. I imagine theyre all almost out of business.

The first porn movie I ever saw was Succulent with Jerry Butler. Saw plenty of dirty mags left behind in my older's brothers bachelor pad as well.

 

[cummuncher24]

I sure as hell dont. I was born in 1991 so all I have known has been internet porn and it is great. I dont know how people did it before.

 

[bergentony]

When cable TV first came out, there were a bunch of really cheesy movies that were featured but they all had some sort if sex scene with a girl with big boobs and you'd see the guys ass ..... Never more. Still it gave me something else to stroke to.

This was porn back then

back in my tweens and early teens I had a friend whose brother worked for a magazine distributor. The outdated issues were supposed to get the covers ripped off and sent in their supplier and the magazines pulped, but the boss would let the guys take coverless mags home, so my friend's bro grabbed LOTS of porn including hardcore stuff, which was $$ and rare back in the 70's. It was better than having a gold mine when you're that age in those days for a lot of reasons.

my dad had a stash under his bed, magazine, a newspaper called Screw, and all kinds of stroke material. I had to sneak in when they were not home to get a look. You had to travel to see porn, theatres, bookstores etc. Now you can see it from the privacy of your own home. Not necessarily better but still fun.

- My dad and a couple of uncles had stashes of Playboy in their trucks and under the beds, so I began to discover nudie magazines when I was a tween, during the beginning of puberty at 11. My highschool years, were Penthouse and Hustler, and a couple of buddies swiped them from their own older siblings and uncles as well!
-I saw my first porn on a bright red VHS tape and began sucking cock and lost my anal virginity in watching porn on a VCR!

 

[bergentony]

Is that you BiMarried lol?

This was porn back then

 

[bergentony]

I remember seeing nude pics of Sam Jones who was later in the movie Flash Girdon in a Playgirl and jerking off to it so much that the pages started to smear,

 

[Rickrock]

I remember Blue Boy and there were a few others. I was really scared the first time I bought one, but they had some pretty hot pictures. I had to be careful to hide them at home. Later there was VHS, but I didn't have any privacy to play any movies so I wasn't able to. I remember going to a gay movie once. It was in an old theater in another part of town and smelled. There were little back rooms where you could go and jack-off. I wish I still had some of the pictures in the magazines and I wish I had saved a few pictures from earlier on JUB, but I didn't want to be caught with any porn and was always afraid.

In high school I'd look at pictures of good looking guys in underwear ads, etc. since that's all I had access to. In college I discovered Adult Book Stores (there were 2 near my college campus) and went all the time late at night after parties. I was usually half drunk (which I needed to be to get the nerve to walk in!) and had far too much glory hole fun in the video arcade behind the curtain in the back. At that time there weren't other porn sources except magazines and rental porn videos so there were all sorts of guys in the arcade from young to old. The ones I went to were mostly college guys and it was amazing who you'd see there - all on the down low of course. I was in a fraternity and recognized many other greek guys there. There was also a park guys would cruise. You had to leave your house back then to do anything.

 

[jbrown329]

Yeah. But the pages kept getting stuck together. Magazines. Lost all mine over several moves.

 

[FPNY]

hahahaaa, we came across a few old Inches magazines that were in a box hidden in the back of a rarely used closet a few weeks ago. It was fun seeing how far we've come...thank goodness for hot college boys with cell phone cameras AND the internet!!

 

[jockofstrap]

In my pre gay days I guess the interest was in Playgirl as way to get off. Then I discovered the world of gay magazines like BlueBoy, Numbers and jack off magazine Stroke. The came VHS tapes, DVD and now internet so much porn to chose and enjoy.
