Seriously, is there such a thing as too much? Do you believe it to be degrading to women and are you shocked at just how much you've got on your own computer?

Not at all. I'm comfortable with the level of porn on my machine. I realise that my question is really a matter of personal belief and nothing more, but it is going to be interesting to find out what a majority believe.
Porn is something that clogs almost every artery of the internet, yet I don't believe it's something that gets discussed enough with a level of seriousness and open mindedness.

How much porn you need is entirely personal. This question is not one that can be answered with regard to a majority. For example, I have no porn at all stashed on my computer. It's all on the internet, and there it shall stay on the off-chance that a member of my family will borrow my laptop and investigate where they're not welcome. Also, the internet is always around. I have no need to store it offline.
I hope I am a good enough writer that some day dwarves kill me and drink my blood for wisdom.

Your family must be very tech-savvy, Vort, or you don't have a password on your user account. :) Or on the folder.

Linux is great for that. Su-su-sudo. :p

Same here, Vort. Why store it on your hard drive and take the chance of someone else finding it when you can just stream it online? You don't save youtube movies either, you just browse them on the site. Granted, if internet goes down or your router dies, you need to have an emergency packet stored somewhere, but more than 1GB is overkill, imo.
It has been reported that some victims of rape, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not WAKE UP. In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they weren't being raped. The only way that they realized they needed to WAKE UP was a note they found in their fantasy world. It would tell them about their condition, and tell them to WAKE UP. Even then, it would often take months until they were ready to discard their fantasy world and PLEASE WAKE UP

I have a few hundred gigs worth of pornographic content, but that's accumulated porn over years of downloading since I don't delete the really good stuff. Before any jokes about furry porn... NO, it is not all furry porn. It's a huge mix of real stuff (zomg, yeah, I have it), anime/hentai and furries. I had an accurate tally at one point, but not at the moment.

I know exactly what you mean Fen. Some stuff is just too good to delete and others are just so fucking hard to find, you have to keep it when you find it. I've literally spent weeks looking for one video on more than one occasion.

You people and your newfangled pictures and videos. Don't you know the best porn is stored in a .txt file?

Concerning the snooping relative, if you make a file named "wgtxl_zip_285" or something and stick it in C: WINDOWS/ assembly nobody will ever find it except you. Guaranteed. If you store your porn in a desktop file labeled "PORNZORS" you're an idiot.

@Ash: it's less that my family is tech-savvy, more that I'm really not. Firefox is about as technical as I get. It took me about three years to figure out how to torrent files. Really the important point is the last one: the internet is a constant in my life these days.

Meh, I'd have more but my HDD is filling up. I don't know how I managed to use 600GB in 2 years (A small fraction of which is porn).

I'd say below 100gb. Though I guess it depends a lot on your preferred type of fap-goods. Movies are usually bigger than pictures and all that. Then we get the porn-fatigue variable, where some can't stand seeing the same stuff more than once vs those that find what they like and keep that for as long as possible.

I can see the advantage of streaming all the porn, but meh, I find it easier to categorize and save it for a rainy day. I'm not too up-to-date on the facebook/youtube generation of porn-surfing.

I like replacing 'porn' with 'math' in this topic for my amusement.

Just the very idea of this topic being discussed deeply goes to show the evolution of civilization is not promising.

Who cares, in the end we all die, so might as well stash some porn while we're here.

Well Alli, that seems to be the catch phrase of the current century.

Oh I know. I've run into that more than once. It's a bitch to hunt down videos... especially some of the hentai movies I find clips out of...

I don't keep it on the desktop but my porn folders are labeled "Porn," "Hentai" and "Furry." I don't care if people find it. It's my goddamn computer. If they don't like it, they can stop using my shit.

Forgive me for asking, but I've never understood what's so great about hentai. It's just some anime characters doing nasty stuff to eachother including tentacle rape, who the hell wants to see that? With some of the porn I've seen you could say I'm a sick fuck as well, but hentai...

I'll see what Fen comes up with as an answer to the hentai question before I add my two cents. I was planning on listing exactly how much porn I actually have on my machine, but that's proving problematic. Whilst I do have the vast majority of it neatly organized, there's still a fair amount waiting to be rounded up. But, I'll tell you what I've rounded up so far. 26.78GB in images alone. 512GB in videos. 127GB in games. 35.7GB in personal. Personal being pictures and videos of ex-girlfriends (16.4GB) and women I've gotten to strip for me over the internet (19.3GB). And there's still all the extra files and folders I haven't rounded up yet, so possible another 50GB-100GB there. There's a very good chance that I might be close to hitting the 1TB margin here.

EDIT: Shit. Just remembered all the stuff I have on my laptop too.
