"Porn" for Women

I am aware that Porn is a real problem in our society, not only for men but for women too. Though let's be honest here Porn is more geared for men and men are the main consumers of Porn. So I was thinking today; since Porn is many a man's vice, what is a vice for many women? I mean I hear, almost daily, from men who struggle with Porn and I was wondering, what do women struggle with on the same level as men with Porn?

Is a steamy romance novel a form of Porn for women? What about fantasy sex? Or maybe it's not a sex thing at all; maybe it's something all together different, maybe Gossip? Unforgiveness? Chocolate? since men and women are so different and our struggles are different but also overlap. I guess it would have to be some emotionally driven thing? Ya think? Since men are sexually driven and Porn feeds that in an improper way, and women are emotionally driven, what feeds them emotionally in an improper way ... mmmm interesting, and I am genuinely curious and don't have the answers. How are women's emotions leading them to sin?

If men are looking at the wrong things, Porn, and it is sin, what are women thinking about or emotionally connecting to that are the wrong things, which would be sin? How are women emotionally sinning, just as men are sexually sinning? Again, I am genuinely curious.

Disclaimer (1): Just in case you didn't catch my position clearly here on my little blog entry, I am opposed to Porn. Though I am a guy just like most other guys and want to see women naked, that is no excuse to consume. Porn is dangerous and I do believe that it can become a harmful addiction just like any other drug -- especially if you are married, or ever plan on getting married and want a happy healthy relationship.

Disclaimer (2): What qualifies as Porn? Great question, and I have given that some thought, because not all nakedness qualifies as Porn.

Dictionary Defines por·nog·ra·phy as, obscene writings, drawings, photographs, or the like, especially those having little or no artistic merit.

I do believe that some nakedness is beautiful and artistic and therefor would not qualify as Porn, but there is a fine line there for which we must be careful. Just like an Tylenol is not a drug that people would frown on anyone taking, even every day, though it's a close cousin to the more powerful and addictive pain-killers. Make sense?

Bottom Line: I would like to think that we all know what is GOOD and HELPFUL for us, and those around us as well as what is BAD and HARMFUL for us and those around us. And many times when we have to ask, that probably means it's BAD. Just sayin.
