New article: Dirty Work: Is porn bad for us?

The story of my stint as a porn paste-up artist on Baltimore's infamous Block is now in print, courtesy of the Urbanite magazine. It's a story I've told probably hundreds of times, including at the storytelling venue Stoop Stories (listen here), but this time Urbanite editor David Dudley encouraged me to take a broader look at pornography and the way it has escaped from the confines of sleazy strips like the Block and become almost, but not quite, mainstream.
