My buddy across the street's parents had a nice porn collection. We'd watch porn all summer long while they were at work.

‘80s comedies (especially horny ones) are probably the moral nadir of all cinema. Truly reprehensible garbage. It’s amazing you all haven’t raped people.

Road Trip for that Amy Smart scene. No nudity but that one scene in Cruel Intentions left a definite mark on my psyche. I didn't even know girls were allowed to kiss each other!

Granted my childhood memories are a repressed blur but I don’t really remember doing this. I feel like I had access to porn fairly early.

By the time I was a teenager, I had access to skin mags, plus I could go to the video store and rent all manner of R-rated movies because my parents allowed that on our account. I'm talking about your earlier introductions to the female (or male) anatomy via film. Options were more limited at that age, particularly for those of us who came up before the internet. So to have access to a copy of Revenge of The Nerds that showed actual human bush was a rare and special thing.
I got you man, and yes your list for sure...adding Weird Science maybe...the series too. Police Academy was another highlight for me.
