Everyone Lies When It Comes to Porn

George Simpson, as only George Simpson can, in a piece called The Sun Sets On Naked Women, debunks a recent Nielsen//NetRatings study on the porn surfing habits of the British and calls everyone a liar. The study claims “only” four in ten British men look at porn and Britain’s kids only look at porn by mistake “while looking for something else online.”

Commenting on the unlikely honesty of teenagers, George writes, “Anyone who has a teenager under his or her roof already knows that teens are the most accomplished liars in the world – and that expecting them to say anything other than that they stumbled across ComeOnMyFace.com while looking up the capital of Botswana was idiotic to begin with.” Classic. And very true.
