Re: Opinions please: Maxim Magazine & My teenage son
I think you're overreacting. 15 is plenty old enough to be exposed to porn, assuming he isn't going over the top with hardcore bondage type stuff. I looked at porn all through highschool, and I've grown up to be very respectful of women and mature when it comes to sex etc. Tell Mommy to back off.
As a Maxim reader, let me say that a lot of the stuff in Maxim will be over his head. I enjoyed it back in highschool, but I also have an older brother and HBO, so I probably had a better-than-average understanding of the adult themes in Maxim for a young teen. And frankly, what's the difference between looking at boobs, and looking at boobs that are covered up by a thin lacy bra? Like the bra makes it less corrupting?
