Opinion Should Porn be illegal?

[William Munny]

I was listening to a podcast about how destructive porn is, to marriages, relationships and especially our youth. There are numerous studies that corroborate this.

One of the guests on this podcast was coming at it from the position that there is nothing positive about Porn, at all. it serves no purpose besides amplifying/satisfying carnal desires.

In your opinion, would you support a government instituted ban on porn as we see in most of Asia, Africa and the middle east?

or do you believe this topic is more nuanced? that maybe soft core porn is okay, but hard core, (borderline r*pe acting) should be illegal?

all opinions welcome.

 

[Cool Hand Luke]

No?

 

[Natural Order]

Porn is a clear reminder that we're nothing more than fucking machines playing dress up. Self-aware, theatrical Bonobos so to speak.

The other 98% we make up is to shield our own psyches from the known degeneracy.

You can't ban it. It's a manifestation of society and the general tolerances at play. Trying to ban it will only make the results more perverse and aggressive.

 

[Protectandserve]

No.
We have enough problems without dedicating a massive chunk of time and money to determining what is or isn’t porn and banning it.

 

[My Spot]

No.

 

[PhitePhan]

No, but there should be more education around the numerous potential harms.

 

[NoSmilez]

What kinda chicom nonsense is this?

 

[IDGETKTFO]

Nice try FBI

 

[DoctorTaco]

lol no.

 

[Joshuaace]

No. But I've always recognized porn, and especially gambling as some of the more destructive addictions you can have.

 

[USA!USA!]

Absolutely not. Similar to junk food and booze, as long as you don't go overboard, there is nothing wrong with it.

Especially for married men - probably saves their relationships lol

In before a bunch of liberals come in laughing and saying p*** isn't bad for people and doesn't hurt marriages.

 

[James Eagle]

[HereticBD]

No, but it should be regulated.

Ban it all, legalize hookers

 

[White Whale]

Ban it all, legalize hookers

I have actually heard some people say that it would be better to ban porn and legalize prostitution.

I have actually heard some people say that it would be better to ban porn and legalize prostitution.

From some of the data I've read about legalized prostitution it really does nothing to stop human trafficking. So the last thing we want is legalized prostitution.

Gonna have to pry my dick from my hot sticky hands.

From some of the data I've read about legalized prostitution it really does nothing to stop human trafficking. So the last thing we want is legalized prostitution.

If you tax it, and make it recognized institution, I think it would cut down on human trafficking tremendously
