[edit] Debbie Does Dallas and Video Playback Recorders (VCRs)

Debbie Does Dallas was the beginning of the pornography industry that could be shown at home. VCRs were brand new technology, and it was a tease to watch Debbie Does Dallas where this had not been seen in the home in the past. The home recording and viewing industry changed everything in the American Way of Life and perceptions of the American Way of Life.

Debbie Does Dallas is not hard core porn, and Debbie Does Dallas is not soft core porn in the modern 21st century home viewing and entertainment environment, but Debbie Does Dallas was there first. I watched it with a bunch of teenage men at eighteen years of age and under twenty-one years of age, and it was one of our first encounters in the technology frontier of home viewing, and we were excited. The innocence lost in America cannot be begun to be expressed, since the perceptions of the United States have dramatically changed--we grew up with Hee Haw and we were excited with Barbi Benton on Hee Haw, among the other Hee Haw women, and we grew up with individual smuggled Playboy photos cut out to be shown after school. In short Debbie Does Dallas was there first as the all-American-girl cheerleader who liked to get sexy to get her way with her friends.

Thanks for this exciting perspective on Debbie Does Dallas. I, too, remember my first viewing of the movie, when me and my family recieved a VCR and this single VHS for Christmas one year. We were enthrawled by the all-encompassing magic of the home viewing experience and the tape would go on to be played time and time again by all members of our rural Kentucky household. When I watch Debbie Does Dallas today, it reminds me of a much simpler time, when keeping enough logs on the fire and watching Bambi Woods exchange sexual favors with her boss were our only concerns through those cold Kentucky nights. Debbie Does Dallas is truly a timeless film that, to this day, echos through the ages. Iodyne 18:06, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
