Digg LogoYou had to see this one coming.  One of the most opinionated and misogynistic sites on the Internet rolls out its new Pictures section and, BAAAAM, this is currently the top story on Digg today:

Planned Parenthood & Anal Sex (Original Digg thread entitled “Sex Hurts? Consider the Alternative”)

I love when I go to these Ivory Tower conferences on Internet Audiences and these agency jackasses who’ve never spent a day on Digg or built an account there try to tell advertisers what the “Digg Demographic” is.  Ladies and gentleman, these are your Digg users…

“Think anal sex hurts? No one cares what you think, you’re a woman.” -  Zihuatanejo 

“It didn’t take long for Diggs Pictures to result in porn. I for one welcome our new porn overlords.” - Spamzor

I really think that sums it up.  “The Ladies” probably haven’t been too kind to “Guy Who Spends All Day Gaming, Programming, Hating Microsoft, Loving Apple, and Watching Ron Paul on YouTube”.  And for that, “the Ladies” pay on Digg.

    Yeah… I saw that one today as well. I couldn’t believe that anyone gave something like that the thumbs up. I had to look at who voted for that one so I could delete them from my “Friend’s” list. Lucky I didn’t recognize anyone.

    That is disgusting. Digg lost me ages ago because of their culture, that vibe has been there for a long time…simmering.

    “Ladies and gentleman, these are your Digg users…”

    Perfectly stated.
