While there are aspects of your post that are valid, the fact that you have excluded men from your post shows that you’re only seeing this form of media through one particular lens. Porn is made for and created by both men and women. It is a form of expression and often gives these performers agency in crafting the life they want to choose for themselves. It is an economy just like any other and I’d argue that there is more exploitation going on in normal fields of work than there necessarily is in the porn industry. Does trafficking and exploitation take place in the porn industry? Absolutely and it should be heavily regulated. But should grown adults be allowed to choose how they spend their free time and showcase their gifts? Also absolutely. Your own moral response to these activities is a moot point assuming they are of consenting age. |
okay then men and women are exploited and trafficked. I just know it’s generally a much bigger issue for women than it is for men (regarding abuse and trafficking). Also, I believe one role of the gov should be — like how a parent may moderate a child’s, for instance, number of cookies they can eat consumption — to moderate how much a person can consume certain potentially predatory/harmful content. This isn’t a matter of moral debate, the overwhelming consensus among research finds a correlation between porn consumption and masturbation with anxiety, depression, and loneliness. Ofc correlation is not causation, though it’s impossible to prove causation… so close enough.
Anyways… I feel like this is getting a little too heavy. I’m gonna jump off this topic.
