Correction...............

Pet peeve;


When people feel the need to correct others if they used a word either out of context, or if their definition of that word is different.


If you understand what i'm saying, when i refer to Playboy as porn, then why do you feel the need to correct me by saying, Playboy isn't by definition Porn.


If i refer to Playboy as Porn, surely you understand what i'm saying.....?


Its people like this that can turn a discussion into an argument.


I haven't even seen a Playboy magazine since i was a kid, i'd find them abandoned in plastic bags, and as a young teenager it was my duty to rescue them and 'have a look', back then it was regarded as porn, Tits, Vagina explicitly clear to the camera. That in my eyes anyway is Porn, some people regard porn as Sexual penetration. He then referred to "British Tabloids" by which i think he meant 'The Sun' and 'Daily Star' which show tones of tits.


Breasts on there own, i don't consider porn, but close ups on a vagina i do, weather there actual penetration or not. Do i hold old values or am i correct?


Or simply does this guy have a personally definition for what porn is, regardless of its Dictionary definition?


Should we regard words by our own definitions or follow a standard, like a dictionary?
