Whatever happened to Linda Lovelace?

I mean, I know about "Ordeal" and her leaving the biz, but I mean, is she still alive, or what? You NEVER hear about her--I figure she's the right age/experience to do the book/lecture circuit...

I remember when I was in college almost 10 years ago Linda Marciano (her real name) came to give a talk about pornography, which she became a crusader against after she left the industry.

As I was part of the campus radio station, we decided to cover the event. Before her talk I saw her in the student snack bar. She looked beet red, like someone with an obvious drinking problem. She has had a hard life. The guy who produced "Deep Throat" basically forced her to do the movie at gunpoint, which is why I will not go see it.

4. Ah, well there ya go.

I didn't even think to check IMDB...I didn't think they listed porn.

5. neither did I

which makes me think, could I find the first porno I ever saw on DVD or VHS, they do show the link to the VHS or DVD version of the movies you know.

6. I just checked...it appears that they link to "iconic" porn...

'features' from the old 'adult movie theatre' days, before the advent of video. I imagine if they tried to archive every shot-on-video naughty movie ever made, their server would fold faster than Superman on laundry day.

7. do you think they have bedtime stories on there?

my first porn viewing, ahh that brings memories back, I remember my first playboy too which sucked!, its like, do I really wanna see girls dressed up like Kiss, now my first penthouse was another story, that was awesome, but then I lost it and it got destroyed in a basement flood :cry:.

[CanuckAmok]

8. Wow...

...your first exposure to porn was seeing naked women dressed as "Kiss"?! Tell me you won't be explaining THAT to a psychologist one day....

[JohnKleeb]

9. Yeah brutal eh man

Now the first penthouse was great but as I said, it got destroyed and I find it the most hot of all the penthouses Ive had, and the porn on the TV was just memorable, it was my favorite kind too, wont tell that on the boards because that may upset some people, but it was nice. Heh I cnat believe I said that but yes I do have a prefered kind of porn.

I bought her some Red Hots and she performs regularly. She has no objections. The juke box is fine- nothing to see here.......
