Seth Stevenson uses pornography to hurt people.
In his Slate column about a Dove TV spot, Seth Stevenson writes:
[T]his Dove ad is just atrocious. It uses a cheap video camera and murky lighting, and stars an average-looking woman being filmed as she takes a shower. The result bears a queasy resemblance to amateur pornography—though I’m told that even bargain-basement porn features flashier production values and more compelling actresses.
Please note, Seth doesn’t watch “bargain-basement porn”, but someone close to him does. Also note that in using the word “porn” to put down the ad and the woman in the ad, Seth hasn’t really told us anything about the ad, but he’s told us a little, maybe too much, about him about himself.
I’d also like to get a look at Seth’s porn stash. If he’s got a cache of porn that’s a lively, fun-loving, and easy on the eyes as this Dove spot, I’d like to borrow it!

Umm. Did he see the same ad I did? I want to see his porn stash, too….
