Erotic material not just for men
by Adam Sechrist
Kansan correspondent
Some women enjoy erotic material lust as much as men.
One Overland Park freshman
— who declined to give her real name citing privacy — says she's been watching erotic movies most of her life.
"When I was in sixth grade, me and my friend started looking at porn on the Internet and chatting in sex chat rooms," she said.
She said that when she was bored, she would download risque material from the Internet, especially pornography from the 1970's and the documentary style porn. Several Internet sites, such as HerCurve.com, sexilicious.com and Libida.com, feature erotic material designed for women.
"It is a degrading thing for women,but that's why people enjoy it, including myself. For all those who haven't watched porn before, wake up and smell the flesh."
"I've seen some documentary porn where someone goes around with a camera and asks random girls to have sex with him that he videotapes," she said.
Naughty But Nice, 1741 Massachusetts St. Osburn said only 10 percent of his store customers purchasing erotic material were women. He said men usually enjoyed the visuals of sex more than women.
Women who enjoy watching and reading erotic material is something of a rarity, said Richard Osburn, owner of
Dennis Dailey, professor of social welfare, said erotic material could include anything from romance novels to pictorials of sexual interaction and that women liked it just as men did.
"Erotic materials have always been there, and it appeals to some and not to others," he said. "Women and men watch it because they enjoy it."
Dailey said some women preferred to watch sexual movies alone and some liked to watch it with others.
The freshman porn-watcher said that she preferred the company of males when watching sexual movies and that she enjoyed the fact that sometimes the movies objectified women and sex.
"It is a degrading thing for women," she said. "But, that's why people enjoy it, including myself."
She said she would never star in a erotic flick because she thought it would be "gross."
"I enjoy watching it but I feel bad for the people in it," she said.
On the other hand, she said she would perform sexual acts for a Web camera.
"If I had a Web cam then I would show off for other people online if I was bored," she said.

Pickup lines: the cheesier the better
By Chris Moore
Kansan correspondent
In bars, in clubs and just about everywhere else, men come up with some creative lines to get women interested in them.
"Pickup lines are basically used as icebreakers," said Samantha Key, Sabeth freshman. "They are trying to show you that they are witter or they want to show you they are the best."
When men see someone they would like to date, or at least have one night of fun with, the ritual begins: They check their breath, make sure all their clothes and hair are straight and deliver a pickup line they hope will score some points with the right lady. Of course,men have to make sure
their friends are nowhere in sight,
so they won't be teased if the line
doesn't work.
Key said she thought in some cases guys wanted to give women a line to remember them by. She said both the lines and guys who used them were botheres.
"They are just cheesy," she said. "It's really based on the presentation. It's cheesier if the lines come from a handsome guy."
Kerry McCourt, Onaga freshman, said she thought pickup lines were silly and artificial.
"A pickup line is slang, so you can't have intelligence behind it," she said. "I just want a guy to say he actually cares about me."
McCourt said few pickup lines would get men in good with a woman, but the lines could work
depending on how men presented them.
The first guy she dated told her pickup line after pickup line, she said, including "Did your daddy work for Campbell's? Because you're mmmm, mmmm good."
"I laughed so hard that I dated him for three years," she said. "I took pity on him."
Key also said funny lines were the best way to capture a woman's heart.
"Don't take the lines seriously," she said. "Just keep in mind that it is just a joke. They have to be funny; then you can get some."
