Would you approve of your mother being a porn actress? Your sister? How about your wife? Your daughter? If they can honestly answer yes to any of those questions it illustrates how far people/society has fallen.
They are autonomous humans capable of making their own decisions. Why do you want to dictate others lives?
For supposed small government types, you folks sure do love to tell other people how to live their lives.

.I'm asking you. Are you fine with the women in your life having sex on the internet or film so some sick bastards can get their jollies? Be honest.

Proposing what is the best course of action for individuals wishing to succeed in life isn’t “telling you how to live your life.” It’s your own conscience that’s bothering you. Not the poster. Deal with it. Maybe post on your brain rather than this thread.

One of the eternal struggles of progressivism vs. conservatism.
You aren't wrong that there's an issue here, the core to the idea, and to this thread, is that controlling one's own desires and urges (re: Sin to Christians) is and should be the purpose of the individual.
But culture and politics make that extremely hard to do. The major politics of the driving force of the left today is to live and let live, in a very simplistic sense (what you are basically outlining). However, it really means I get all of my desires and urges, and you have to pay for it, to accept it, support it and to celebrate it. Personal desire drives everything.
We are putting no barriers to and helping no one make good, conscious decisions. Even non-Christians should be looking at this as a Humanity problem in and of itself. Human nature is one that can get locked into any and all desires. (That's not even to say that all major problems in this world go back to chasing certain base desires unchecked).
But again "So what? We shouldn't and can't stop what people should do, they should stop themselves?"
As a whole, Humans can't. That's the problem. You, singularly, might be able to avoid porn, but culture at large, when it becomes this available and this free, can not. And you will continue to create kids who grow up with it who are ill equipped to deal with it. Again, for every 1 kid that has the stones to reject porn, there are 10 who don't. That's the problem. Therefore, for the betterment of the human condition having some limitation, and some negativity around porn, and all desires, should be a GOOD thing.

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.
