As I have said before, and will say over and over again if necessary: porn is a symptom of issues, not an issue in and of itself.


Say it as many times as you’d like. Porn is an issue.

Actually I think it is our fall away from religion (me include). Out morals and ethics in the west were rooted in Judeo/Christianity. Once that is abandoned why do we have to follow any moral compass?


Pretty much this. Porn is one of the more visible signs that there is a moral breakdown. As the morals go, the hidden evil comes to the surface. The destruction of the family unit is what really causes the steep down slide.

It's the Achilles heel of the Republican Party.

I think we should add a war on porn to the war on drugs. We can also go after violence in movies and video games. Then, put the gays back into civil unions where they belong.

No I value freedom. I'm sensing that some of you just hate women.

The femoids have gained more freedom of choice and it makes some of you so damn mad that you are lashing out.

The nuclear family unit is a bit of a myth to begin with.

By your definition, that would have been when prostitution was invented, not pornography. So now, you're basically back to the VERY beginning.

Nah. Christianity underwrote slavery and torture for centuries.

You equate freedom with porn?

Coming from the guy defending an industry that overwhelming preys on young women, a majority of whom have family and drug issues.

Damn, bro. Have some integrity.

Of course you can't. That's why it's so insidious. But let's be honest. I bet you devote a significantly greater amount of time and energy to your porn addition.

Link to where I defended the porn industry?

I am dismissing the rest of that drivel because it is nothing but rubbish.

it's hard to argue you have a free society if porn is illegal

at least with prostitution there is the chance for a ward of the state being produced, but that's not possible with masturbation

the issue is the use of "preys" in your comment. it is very condescending towards those women and can easily morph into misogyny

porn is like anything else in life. fine in moderation but can be abused and lead to very ill consequences

Look- I do believe the porn industry has destroyed a lot of lives- especially among those who were involved in it.



But as for the sideshow we are witnessing right now, I would be a lot more apt to blame the political far left in this country than I would Ron Jeremy.


Just my .02- which is worth around .0245.

It has infected girls' minds and conditioned them to think that their worth is solely in their sexual marketability.

i think this is looking at it far too much as an intrinsic examination and not an economic one

the problem is that it's only a short term economic gain with potential major long term loss, and THAT problem is a scarcity mindset

porn IS freedom. It’s a service provided by some made available to those who want it

the industry doesn’t prey on women, criminals do. There’s nothing inherently criminal in what we see.

More blame should be placed on the Boomer generation's filling of academia with a higher percentage of leftist thinkers than ever before brainwashing a generation - in many cases as high or higher than 14:1 left to right.

I disagree. Other countries can carry on in a civilized society without religion, and there’s no reason we can’t as well.

Oh for God's sake. You and SFP should stop lapping up the propaganda that Larry Flynt is some sort of American hero.

The industry as a whole overwhelmingly does so. Be honest with yourself. I get that it's not going to make you cut down on your addiction.
