"Well, I do have to correct you here, since we can already see that merely the statement of pornography means male-female sex. There is also male-male pornography. "

 

come on, we are being general here, we both know that 90% of the porn industry is based on the exploitation of women

"I said pornography isn't in and of itself sexist, because one, women don't even have to be involved, and 2, it can be done with the complete consent of the woman"

 

you can consent to being exploited and having sexism used against you, consent given has nothing to do with whether something is sexist or not

and as i said above the porn industry is 90% about exploiting women, gay - gay male porn is an extreme outlier in the porn industry

 

"I also say stopping people from watching porn isn't going to solve the problem"

 

this is a strawman, i said destroying the channels that distribute pornography, which would be very very easy, china for example has their infrastructure set up in such a way that many popular sites like twitter are blocked

 

"because much like drugs, there will be a black market of it, and then women themselves will end up getting punished for participating in it, like they do for prostitution, so it will not help them."

 

i didn't say anything about punishing women for having their bodies recorded, i said destroying the channels that widely distribute porn, it wouldn't completely be eradicated of course but at least the exploitation would massively be reduced.

I said that the porn industry is sexist, so I don't see where the argument is there? You can create porn independent of the porn industry, much in the same way that people make homebrew games. And interesting that you referred to China, considering all of the VPNs that exist that allow you to access blocked sites in China. Exploitation wouldn't be radically reduced because it would still not address the issue of why women are exploited like that in the first place, namely due to their lower economic and societal standing.

 

"You can create porn independent of the porn industry"

the point i'm making is that websites can be destroyed or prevented from being put up... as i keep repeating porn relies on an easily accessible medium - destroy that and it'll take a big hit

 

" And interesting that you referred to China"

it was a poor example yes

 

"Exploitation wouldn't be radically reduced because it would still not address the issue of why women are exploited like that in the first place, namely due to their lower economic and societal standing."

women in developed countries as i said previously make more in their 20s than men in the same age range which is also the most common age range for porn actresses, i'd appreciate it if you didn't keep repeating claims that have been debunked
