The Pornography Timeline

April 1st, 2009 | 12:27 pm
Pornography has been around since the dawn of man. So we thought we'd illustrate some of the high (and low) points over the course of porn's history. And since this is about pornography, we actually did research for this post for the first time in HolyTaco's existence. The majority of these dates and facts are real. (Don't worry, it will never happen again.)

    Will these new "fuck robots" next year have interchangeable sex organs; like the Fleshlight? I ask because I've always wanted to fuck an asshole and still look Johnny 5 in the eye.

    Ya Japan fucks everything up.

    Or do they?

    I'm just wondering what Japan will do to improve 2 Girls 1 Cup... it should be mind-blowing.

    I don't really want to nerd out on you guys, but what else is the internet for except critiquing minutia? The picture for Rome's "first three way" sculpture is actually a copy of a Greek work. This isn't really the point though, the point would be that it shows the myth of Laocoon (a man) and his two sons (also men) being eaten alive by a sea serpent. So either you guys' research is as half assed as I'd expect it to be or you have the sickest idea of a three way.

    Wow!

    Here's an example of how we research:  Step 1: Type "three-way sculpture" into google image search.  Step 2: Copy and paste first image that shows up.   But thank you for pointing out that sculpture. You've upped the intelligence on this site by 6,000%.

    Wow, you got all the way to the "Roman" "three-way" sculpture? I was stopped in my tracks by the idea of geishas coming from China. I can understand that the average bloke doesn't realize that geishas don't date back further than Japan's feudal era (so really, any time before about 1500 is too early, and anything BC is right out!). But still, I thought everyone knew the difference between Japan and China, at least!

    Well played, except I'd really like to see this incorporated into the ones they have on nytimes.com - you know all interactive and flashy and shit.

    And also, no mention of DV/DA?

  11. Advice Jerk Says:

    Do you think Al Gore will invent the fuckable robot as well?

    What about Ron Jeremy hitting puberty?

  15. DaDumps Says:

    You neglected to mention the historical effects of "2-girls 1-cup" on your timeline...

  16. Anonymous Says:

  17. Anonymous Says:

    The true porn revolution was brought by digital camera invention.

  18. Logan Black Says:

    Not digital cameras but cell phone cameras, many drunken pictures taken at frat parties

    This is STUPID!

    You didn't mention my Sister!
    FAIL

  21. Anonymous Says:

    Actually, the Marquis De Sade invented S&M, the word sadism comes from his name because of the nature of what he wrote in his books. Also, Geishas are Japanese not Chinese.

  22. Mim Says:

    What about the advent of vibrators to induce "hysterical paroxysm" in Victorian women?
