Where'd you hide your porn as a kid?

[weemadando]

the only physical porn I have is pretty shit.

Well, there's one good 'un and then two horrible ones that some friends gave me for my 18th.

Electronic stuff, not much as I just cleaned out my HDDs which means all my lovely movies are gone.

When I still used the same computer as the rest of my family, the small amount of porn I had was placed in a password-protected zipfile called 'stuff1.zip', which was then placed in another password-protected zipfile called stuff.zip. The file was only about 10 megs and in some remote subdirectory, to remain unobtrusive.

For actual physical porn, I just found my dad's stash and looked at it while I was home alone. Just a few Playboys, some Hustlers, some letter/story books (which I thought were great back then; now they just seem boring), and some weird 70s-era magazines that actually had stuff censored in them (even the damned ads!).

When I was younger: My dad had a stash in that classichiding spot: under the bed!

Now:
Realspace:In plain fucking sight!!!
Computer: plastered over 22 gigabytes of my D drive. Very easy for any n00b to get to! In fact, I'm gonna set up a nice FTP server in a lil bit.... he he he...

Currently buried in a hidden folder inside several other folders, fairly well disguised with a regularly cleaned Recent Documents menu.

Hiding porn from liberal parents was not the problem. So the books were actually on the book shelf, in plain sight, the Floppies with the Hentai were actually in a box of Floppy Disks labled Porn, etc. The big problem was keeping my sister out of my room. She would go over and steal my "Barbarian Comics", my magazines, my really smutty novels etc. She would raid my floppy disks, everything, and only being Six or Seven years younger then me, she had no problem getting access to things, if I could.

When I was in elementary school, the only porn I had was this fat book from the seventies that me and my friend found in his cousin's house. We took it and hid it in the bushes a block away from my friend's house. We'd then take it back to his basement to look at it, but after a while, snails ate it.
When I was in middle school, I found my parents porn. I also found the internet. At first, I wasn't skilled at finding free internet porn, so I relied mainly on looking at my parents porn while they were away.
By high school, I had mastered the internet. I knew how to navigate it, what to look for in terms of free porn, how to know when a hunt for free porn had taken a turn down a trail that wouldn't lead to anything, and most importantly, I had built a network of addresses of free sites in my head. Rather than store anything on the comp, I simply remembered all the urls, and then cleaned everything up when I was done. For longer urls, I'd write them down in WEG's aurabesh on various pieces of scratch paper that already had a bunch of stuff written on them, and then I'd stash those scratch papers in piles of other scratch papers. I don't do that writing down thing anymore; I simply remember every url.

Now, I never really had to be that discrete about any of this. I'm just really neurotic. My parents wouldn't care, in fact, they found an accidentally undeleted porn movie in my Napster folder one time, and they didn't care. I just keep up the secrecy because, as I said before, I'm quite neurotic. Anyways, I gotta have something to do, why not cover up my masturbatory habits?

I had bookshelves full of magazines and books as kid, so it was pretty easy to hide a few porn mags in there. Just to make sure they weren't found ona casual look, I took covers off my normal magazines and put them over my porn mags to disguise them. I still have a few Playboys and other nudie mags that I shoplifted from various stores when I was younger. As for porn on my computer, when I was younger I was the only one in my family that knew how to use a computer, so hiding the hundreds of pictures I'd downloaded was a trivial matter. Nowadays I'm an adult, and there's no need to hide my porn.

[Cosmic Average]

I used to hide the stuff in my comics.

[ArmorPierce]

I used to just DL and delete it.

Update: My little "Share My P0rn Stash with SD.Net With My Nifty FTP Server" idea got stopped cold when my FTP server kept malfunctioning... Maybe I'll reboot and try....

[EDIT] Update: Rebooted, no joy. Fuck.............

Since I'm at college I don't need to hide my porn, but when I go back home for the summer I usually just reformat my hard drive, because that's usually quicker than scouruing through all my folders to find where I've placed the porn. My mother does NOT respect my privacy, even within my own computer, and I have to be very thorough.

[RedImperator]

WHen I was younger, I'd rename porn files with vaguely technical-sounding names and delete the file extentions. They'd still open if you used the right program, but my mostly computer illiterate family knew enough to stay away from files that looked vaguely important. Then I just stored them in a folder in the hidden directory. No fuss, no muss. The benefit of deleting the extention was that if I forgot to clear out the history list, people still wouldn't open the file because it looked technical.

Physical porn was stashed on the very top shelf of my closet. After I moved into my grandparents' house, it got dumped in the bottom drawer of my desk, along with booze, condoms, cigarettes, and various other things you don't want your sweet, 80 year old grandmother to know you have. It's got a lock on it and i keep the only key on my key ring, which I take everywhere.

[Lord Pounder]

I used to hide my porn in the box of my old Sega Mega Drive (genesis system to you yanks here) andsaying as how i only got the net 5 years ago. My dad used to steal all my porn, bastard, but i always got it back with interest. He had a pretty good collection himself. But it was one of those things never mentioned. Now i just hide my Internet porn in my own file of my computer called "Stevies Stuff" my family know not to fuck with it or risk being upset.

[BrYaN19kc]

I re-label my DVD's (I only have six) and put them in my Dell OS Recovery Software Storage Notebook. LOL!

Puter porn is about five sub-directories down in the system folder.

Now that I don't live at home any more, I just leave the DVD's on the shelf, and my puter stuff in My Doccuments - my partner likes to view it once in a while.

[CmdrWilkens]

I really didn't keep any porn around until abotu the last 2-3 years and by then I had a computer all my own that I just kept password protected and what little physical porn I had was in my computer desk where no one but me went anyway (my corner ofthe basement was rather trashy so they stayed away).

[Ted]

I've never touched a porn mag until this summer, when I got some in England.

My dad has NO porn, really bad for my health growing up.

I've got my own user on the family comp, as the admin, and I've locked out my files only to my user, so I can keep it pretty open, though I do have it within a few folders.

[THEHOOLIGANJEDI]

Damn, do any of you have siblings? Well my case is somewhat different, since there were 4 of us and we shared rooms. I made sure that they were well hidden (b/c my sibs, two of whom were girls, would have at the time ratted me the hell out). I hid them in an old bacpack and locked it and placed it under my bed.

[The Yosemite Bear]

While my mother respected my privacy, my sister did not.

Actually the only thing we were forbidden was the really Misogynistic stuff.

Mind you I still did read that stuff too (Because the told me NOT TOO, perfect incentive)

[TrailerParkJawa]

When I was a kid, porn was VHS and mags. I guess there was porn on BBS' but I did not know how to access it or even knew it existed.

I kept my mags mixed in with roleplaying stuff. Sometimes I hid it in my dresser. I remember reading the stories in Playboy and Hustler and thinking they were for real.

[Lord Pounder]

You mean they're not? God damn is nothing sacred. 1st i'm told Santa doesn't exist , then the Easter Bunny farce now this. WILL IT NEVER END?

[Montcalm]

What is qualified porn and what is qualified erotic?

I suppose no one got around to mentioning the Tooth Fairy doesn't exist either eh?

[Darksider]

I copy and paste on MS Paint, then print it when everyone is away. I keep them on the top of my shelves over my desk, where no one will look.

never print printing is a bad idea that's how i got cought

i just look at the stuff on the internet and then delete my history
