[quote=davelj][quote=Russell]How about the men who subscribe to playboy or put touched up silk screened, pictures selected from 1000’s of shots to get the very best one, of already beautiful women, who are almost exclusively in their best child bearing years. Aren’t these fellas sex groupies of a sort?[/quote]

This is solely about looks/sexuality – it has little or nothing to do with the “celebrity” of the person. If the woman is hot, the picture goes up.

Although there is a “novelty” issue…

Perhaps closer to the point of Sex Groupie, isn’t it true that a pornographic video of angelina Jolie or whatever her name is would be much more of a sensation than an equal one of a much more beautiful but humble woman who isn’t in the lime light of fame and fortune? [/quote]

This gets to the issue of “novelty” – which is apart from Groupiedom. I’m sure a sex tape of Hillary Clinton would also do quite well due solely to its inherent novelty.

You’re really stretching…[/quote]
No I am not stretching. It is pretty similar behavior and is derived from the same place in the brain with small variations for gender and societal ramifications.
