Of virtuous women being actually sinful. It’s entire overriding message is that “normal” and “virtue” are pretenses. Porn purports to be pointing out the 10,000 pound gorilla in the room.

Is it any wonder then that when actual girls from normal (ie: objectively positive) backgrounds inexplicably reject them and begin a long, drawn out process of losing (or, rather, foregoing) their virtue, the popularity of it just so happens to coincide with a massive uptick in the consumption of porn?

No, it’s not. The popularity of Kardashian and Hilton is an even more intense confirmation (result?) of the message porn has been saying for decades.
