Looking back, it’s genuinely difficult to imagine living in times before the age of Internet porn. We’ve become so spoilt for choice that the vast majority of us take things totally for granted.
Even with a single site like BangBros Free you’ve enough to keep you busy for a lifetime. Multiply this by the thousands of free porn channels available and folks these days really do have it pretty easy.
Which begs the question – what did people do for ‘entertainment’ before the internet porn revolution? More importantly, how did horny teenagers and hormonal adolescents satisfy their cravings back in the nineties?
Truth is, it was simply a case of making do with what was available at the time. There were plenty of avenues to explore, if slightly more rudimentary than what’s on the table today.
Here’s what kept the masses busy back in the day:
Table of Contents
1. Borrowed, Stolen or Copied Videotapes
Anyone who had a stockpile of low-quality porn tapes back in the day was essentially a god. Or at least, a tycoon with the kind of priceless commodity that could get them anything they wanted. Watching the same video over and over (often hundreds of times) was as good as it got back then.
2. Dirty Magazines
When you think about it, it’s surprising the classic porn magazine hasn’t vanished from existence entirely. Still shots are no match for real action, but there’s still a decent market for old-fashioned skin mags.
3. Secret Stashes Hidden in the Woods
Happening across a secret stash of porn magazines dumped or hidden in the woods was just about the most exciting thing that could happen to a pubescent 90s teenager. And it happened with surprising regularity, often in the form of no more than a plastic bag loaded with sinful contents, dumped for reasons nobody could quite explain.
4. Swimwear Catalogues
Or for that matter, the swimwear or lingerie section in any standard catalogue. It wasn’t as if you had a great deal of choice, so you have to make do with what you have available. Home shopping catalogues were therefore an absolute goldmine, and (thankfully) present in the vast majority of homes. Though it wouldn’t usually take long for certain sections to begin looking a little worse for wear!
5. Weird Late Night Foreign Porn
If you were lucky enough to have cable TV or satellite TV, you could try your luck with a bunch of late-night channels from around the world. Time it right and you’d occasionally find a seriously low-quality soft porn film from some weird German channel. Hardly sexy in the conventional sense, but better than nothing.
6. The Age of Imagination
If all else failed – and it often did – it was simply a case of relying on your own imagination. Not that there was any shortage of it at the time, as creativity and wishful thinking were all a lot of people had. Strange to think that just a few decades later, the world’s collective sexual creativity would be accessible 24/7 at the click of a button online!
