The Kamasutra survey caught

the imagination of the media

and middle classes. Two leading

English-speaking magazines

started publishing sex surveys

since 2003 - Outlook's Sex

Survey and India Today Sex

Survey. Ever since then, soft

porn got a decent name - Sex

Survey. Accuracy of such surveys

has always been under shadow

In his 2008 book,
Click, Bill Tancer anticipated

that social media will overtake

pornography as the most popular

activity on Internet. For example,

Fuckbook (a porn version of Facebook),
Pinsex (a porn version of Pinterest),

Pornostagram (a porn version of Instagram),
PornTube (a porn version of YouTube),

online pornography websites are

increasingly behaving like

social networking sites.

I had rarely discussed pornography

with senior citizens. I saw myself
through their eyes and wondered

what they would possibly think of me.

through books on pornography in
the middle of the day or

meandering gently in public.

When I would tell
them that I am writing a book

about pornography,

I could see the look
of contempt on their faces.

This is just research; when I explained, I
judged how defensive I sounded

by their frowned foreheads. So, I
started talking about pornography

only with people who did not

cross middle age.
