What does always irritate me about those who write about porn is the way they write in an authorative way, as if only they have the right to write about it and there quote authoritive research and understanding as far as someome else is concerned. Never does it seem that the general public are asked their views and how it affects them, they come to their own conclusions based upon research outside of public interest, and there seek to influence and legislate.
Does it never actually occur to authoritive figures and bodies that not everyone wants to settle down and have offspring, does it not occur that there are people who want to be single, and are happy being single. Why is it always assumed people must be in a couple, ideally male and female. Sexual intercourse in the past was a haphazard situation without contraception as with nature, offspring came, but now with all manner of contraceptive devices available,the creation of offspring is a choice. With the increasing costs of everything, the notion of having a child has to be thought about hard, as in this age, running a child is not a cheap prospect as it seems children need more now than they ever did.
My wonder is, could the rise in availability and acceptability of pornography be in relation to the belief and findings in some places that marriage is going out of fashion, there is an increasing number of people who actually prefer to live alone or at least cohabit and not have children.
Pornography has it's place, it has a use, for it responds to darkness within us and quells a need. To note, I refer to the darkness and call it such, for human sexuality is not a subject brought out into the light by many, and we from past times are made to feel guilty about our natural and much misunderstood urges.
It strikes me that those from religion and government law making legislated against the natural human because of their own misunderstandings and confusions.
