Be HonesT ’bout Po-rn

Pornography has become big business in the United States. You no longer have to go places to find it; it now finds you. Once confined to “dirty old men” and seedy areas of town, pornography has now penetrated the hotel room and home. The Internet and cell phone have made pornography accessible everywhere, all the time.

In a manner that the older generation of Americans finds scandalous, porn has become socially acceptable and lost its moral stigma.

The liberal defense of obscenity and pornography began many decades ago as a defense of great works of literature and of free speech.

It began as a defense of books like James Joyce’s Ulysses, Flaubert’s Madame Bovary, and D.H. Lawrence’s Lady Chatterly’s Lover. But now some liberal advocates insist that all forms of sexual explicitness are equally deserving of legal protection and that no restriction of obscenity or pornography should be allowed.

Groups like the ACLU have taken the approach that pornography rights, like the rights of accused criminals, are best protected at their outermost extreme. This means is that the more foul the obscenity, the harder liberals must fight to allow it.

Pornography — The Real Perversion

Hustler features a good deal of gross and repellent material, such as its parody of Jerry Falwell having s-ex with his grandmother, or its picture of a woman being processed through a meat grinder.

The pornographer generally knows that he is a sleazy operator…. Typically such men do not even try and defend the social value of what they do, other than to point out that there is a demand for it. It is only the ACLU and its supporters who celebrate the pornographer as a paragon of the First Amendment and a contemporary social hero.

The liberal defense of pornography is even more perverted than the pornography itself.

The worst obscurities from which we suffer do not come from without, my sweet friends. They come from within.
So I implore upon you, let us not deceive ourselves about this.

Pornography is maliciously designed for women to be seen as objects.

Women have been seen in costume, or reference, even like an animal..the infamous.. Play-boy “bunny”, yet no one admits that this is tantamount to being reduced to an animal, because in pornography, it simply doesn’t matter.

A woman is always an object: An object of male desire.
She has no name. She is a “bunny” or a body part. And a dispensable one at that.

That is why it is so easy for men (and even duped women) to rationalize frequenting strip clubs, because, after all, the girl or woman is just a pair of legs or breasts, and supposedly, she is there of her own free will.

But no sane man or woman want their daughter “performing” like that, so why is it sanctioned to support someone else’s daughter in her own spiritual and psychological demise?

Pornography has always violated women indirectly and directly.

Women, who refuse to tolerate it or engage in it are still affected by the sexual inequality that it effectively maintains.
Consider the entertainment industry. Women in music videos are portrayed as “whores” and called “hoes.”

Men and boys are portrayed as using these women in much the same way they display their “bling”, or car.

For young girls to even embark upon a career in film or the arts, they compete with those girls who pornify themselves, and are thus perceived as having the “edge” with men.

Sexual mistreatment and rape are legitimized. Not to mention that even the “normal” s-ex they portray is so incredulously unrealistic and are not the things that women like, or for the most part that women want.

Sorry to disappoint those who justify the whole “se-x industry” as innocent “enjoyment”, but the vast majority of women in the “industry”..are victims of torture, death threats, humiliation, sodimization, and rape. Look at stats for women trafficking if you remain a naysayer.

And for all those duped into believing that women who tolerate pornography, or strip clubs are “sexually liberated women”, that is the bag of goods that pornographers sold to the public, and that the public eagerly bought.

Perhaps some guy hopes that one day the girl of his dreams could be as “liberated” as that girl on the screen too eh. Yes, she must strive to please at all costs, even personal costs of her self respect and her very humanity.

It may be through a video or more likely through a computer screen, but make no mistake, pornography is a technologically sophisticated method of trafficking women. (men and children too.)

Pornography makes female objectification and subordination er-otic, and se-xy.

If one’s masculine values find a way to justify that…I would re-think just how much of a “man” you truly are.

  2. That was wonderful! I’ve just begun dating someone and I want to have the difficult talk about
    pornography because I know many men struggle with the temptation to view/consume it.
    It has become more of a problem even in “mainstream” films to create more and more explicit
    and unrealistic “love scenes” that are do not glorify a proper relationship between a man
    and a woman. Being anti-porn is not to be repressed, or prudish but to be respectful of
    ourselves! Expecting men to live up to the standard of respecting us by not partaking in this
    harmful (to both the consumers and the objectified) industry should be normal.

  3. Thanks Megan for the input..couldnt agree with ya more! 🙂
    I’m sure David will add his 2 cents soon as he’s up and running..lol
    Fondly,

  4. Hi Angel,

    This topic has been on my mind of late. The thing is is that while men are the consumers by and large, I think women are doing the most to expand pornography. The standards of our society are set by you ladies. We men had our day but these days if we men start to voice something, we get shot down pretty quickly and brutally. We might say, “Hey ladies quit taking your clothes off all the time its annoying.” We would be told that a woman has every right to do what she wants along with several choice adjectives relating to our intelligence and size.

    I’m as guy as a guy can be and I have a problem with the ammount of beautiful women thrown at me on T.V. It just seems like every woman known through the media has some proud nudes of herself that she would love for us all to admire.

  5. Great post, on-target thoughts. Still not up yet (need to find someplace to recharge WW’snotebook–almost gone), but we do have water and POTS line back, now… for now. *heh* Thanks for holding the fort, Angel!

  6. It’s all about the fantasy. And…I’d say at the core, selfishness. If a woman would “act that way” then there is no reason to have to spend time considering the other person’s needs and emotional condition….satisfaction guaranteed with none of the messiness of having to relate.

    Also: So long as there is the “profit/easy money” for the women, they don’t have to develop other skills to make a living, and it also satisfies the cultural obsession to have everything now, specifically in this case, the cash.

    Well stated, and much more to discuss on the topic.

  7. The topic of pornography is argued as being a right of expression protected by the Constitution. The Constitution was established to protect God given rights and to delineate all other powers established by government. In other words, those who would argue that pornography is protected are saying that God Himself intended for His children to profane and pollute a society which He desires to return unto Him. That is contradictory to reason. The deviation from normal and acceptable expression of thought has been going on ever since the beginning; Adam and Eve being tempted to eat the forbidden fruit. “You will not surely die; but will become as the gods knowing good and evil”. While the statement contains considerable truth, it hides the lie that you will not surely die. The eternal nature of man, that we will continue after mortality can never be brought into a discussion regarding pornography or the discussion would end most abruptly. When we consider our eternal nature to become as God would have us become, then there is little doubt that God never intended for us to become corrupted in any way shape or form. Those temptations are part of Satan’s plan to disrupt mans eternal progression toward becoming true heirs of God.

  8. Thanks John and x-formed for your insightful additions.
    It would take another post to succinctly clarify I suppose..lol
    Complex topic no doubt! 🙂
    When David is up and running again, no doubt he will “expound”
    as well..grinz
