I would say that porn is a radical form of evil since it deprives the mind of proportionately viewing the opposite sex. I mean if humans are merely objects through which to gratify our senses than what importance do they hold to us other than to produce a pleasurable sensation or fantasy. I find it to be an outright violation on a woman's and man's dignity and I have always wondered why so many feminist who are for women's right do not mind porn.

I think the agenda and ideology behind porn is too strip the man of his rationality and thus his potency or capacity to act. And by doing this causing him to develop a homo-erotic disposition upon which he becomes that which he objectifies. In a way this is a subconscious form of feminizing a man's mind even if hormonally he is attracted still to female subjects. I also think the porn disturbs and causes disarray in the higher processes of our consciousness by fraying our synaptic nerves.


This causes us our instincts to overcome our free and rational wills and we become enslaved to the physical realm to the point where we are not longer capable of thinking or objectifying to things in the real world in a meaningful way. Porn is counterproductive and it contradicts that which it intends to purport. The passion which porn tries to satisfy is twisted and demented from the original and proper way in which the passion of mankind should be directed to see the other in their nakedness. By the way can I add a poll moderator?

O man, take care!
What does the deep midnight declare?
"I was asleep—
From a deep dream I woke and swear:—
The world is deep,
Deeper than day had been aware.
Deep is its woe—
Joy—deeper yet than agony:
Woe implores: Go!
But all joy wants eternity—
Wants deep, wants deep eternity."

Is this supposed to represent some reason for why humans are stimulated into desiring and lusting for the evils of porn.

Porn isn't evil, Geist. Some of it came be, sure. Pedo crap and stuff like that. Mostly I think it is just an outlet like any other medium.

What qualifies as pornography? Some people think some great works of art are pornographic.


Anyhow, I thought the above had something to do with an ass festival. Sounds pornographic to me.

[LasTins]

Feminists usually oppose porn.
This is a battle between freedom and morals, and between individual and social norms, and between real and nominal freedom too.
Complicated matter.

I think porn is evil regardless of what type it is most people might see it as an extremist view but we do live in a lax society when it comes to morals. In my opinion there is pornography extends outside of just videos showing a woman or a man and a woman doing something with a sexual connotation. It occurs whenever their are suggestive photos or images with women at the least being clothed in nothing more than thongs and a bra strap.

[casinobonusese]

Well, we can go around knocking the penises off of nude statues and covering them with leaves if it will make people feel better.

I don't think so necessarily I would see porn as the perfect outlet through which feminists could feminize men by enslaving them to their sexual instincts. It is a complicated matter when it comes down it because it does come down to the individual's decisions. Their will always be social venues which will allow him to involve himself in vice he just needs to be decent enough to avoid these social conventions even if they are seen as normative.

That's not pornography though and neither are the engravings in the Vatican of nude women its has everything to do with the intent these statues and images wished to purport. The intent they were trying to purport was the beauty of the body in its original state. It has nothing to do with the hyper sexual image which most pornography wishes to impress on people's minds by distorting a natural desire and twisting it into a crude way to arouse pleasure by objectifying a human individual.

Then why did someone knock their penises off and cover them with leaves? That is what censorship leads to.

These statues and images were created not to create erotic thoughts nor to stimulate demented sensations and fantasies. The "intent" reveals itself through the structures of the statues which were given shape in such as a way so that their "intent" would not be pornographic. There is no reason to censure that which is natural just like there is no reason to censure such behavior or actions in the context of a relationship.

I know. I don't think that they are pornographic. What I am saying is that someone else did.

That is what I meant by asking what is pornography and who gets to decide.

[heltduell]

porn I think could become very bad for people who don't have the social and or physical attributes to attract a woman in the real world. A lot of fat people I think could really lose sight of what it's really like being with a woman because of porn. I've often wondered how fat guys get laid. I suppose they pay for it.

Yes pretty much in most cases it is an issue which people have to arbitrarily have to define. I just know that sometimes at least to my mind that some forms of pornography depict and show things in such a way that it distorts the natural desire or instinct of the individual person. Things with a sexual context have the potential to be good and fruitful its just how its depicted, the way we interpret it, and what our final intent is in the course of engaging with it.

Porn isn't evil. Certain sexual acts recorded on film may be evil but two consenting adults having sex on camera isn't evil. I haven't seen any studies indicating casual watching of porn leads to any problems. Anything in excess, of course, isn't good for you but that could be said of many things in our society. I've even heard it argued that porn is the reason why rape and even child molestation has dropped. In the later case, as the argument goes, the availability of child porn leads to an outlet for someone who would otherwise act on their desires. I'm not sure if that argument is a strong one. I didn't bother to look it up.

Oddly enough there is a correlation between the availability of porn and a drop in sexual promiscuity in society. Today's teenagers are less sexually active than previous generation of teenagers.

Although much of porn comes across as simulated rape. These guys really bang the hell out of these chicks. My first experience with porn was the Playboy channel in 1992. It was far less aggressive. I'll add that to me porn is certainly degrading to women but adults should be treated as adults, don't you mo' fo's think? It's their choice if they want to have seven guys jack off on their face on film. Big boys and girls need to make big boy and girl decisions about their own life.

This is another problem I have with porn is that some people find it as a viable substitute for actually having sex.

Lol I don't think anybody does. I think only people who can't get sex do.


No man would choose porn over sex.

Porn is not reality and it can skew someones sense of reality by feeding them endless fantasy fulfillment. I agree.


I should say, porn is Often not reality. Some folks make homemade videos and I suppose that is reality.

Sex should be a private act between two people if it is not there is something obviously wrong with it. People who let others watch them having sex are cheap bastards who have little self-respect and dignity. I don't think its right too suppress or oppress your desires but I have always said that its best to be patient until you get into a viable relationship. I think porn is intrinsically evil regardless of the conditions you attempt to give it to justify it. Also if people act in the way as you depicted lastly the authorities should clasp down on them for being sexual deviants and depraved animals who utilize their freedoms in irresponsible and reckless ways.
