The Importance Of Pornography

Many people say that pornography should be censors and other say that it is helpful. Pornography is used all around the world for many reason whether if its use for masturbation, other use it to release stress or for there personal needs and it may help relationships. Brownmiller states “pornography represents hatred of women, that hat pornography’s intent is to humiliate, degrade, and dehumanize the female body for the purpose to erotic stimulation and pleasure” (62). So what Brownmiller is saying is that because of pornography women are targeted and hated by many and this is why it should be censor. I disagree with her because pornography does not bring women down nor is it only used for pleasure. This example says the opposite to what Brownmiller said, “pornography, for example, doesn’t degrade women; women are degraded by our culture, and certain forms of pornography reflect that.” (McWilliams). McWilliams states that pornography isn’t the one who is degrading women but who is really humiliating women is ones culture. Our culture is the one who is corrupting the society and not pornography. I agree with McWilliams that society should be the one who is censor and not pornography. Because as a society we are the one who is hurting

All of the evidence provided was pulled from male rapists or men that proved to be force oriented. Experiments should be done based on healthy, non-rapist individuals, including women. Women view pornography, women are capable of ill thoughts and violence, and women are capable of committing rape. It would seem that there was plenty of evidence provided by Ms. Russell but I do not think that it is adequate to substantiate her theory that pornography is harmful.

Gail Dines’s book Pornland: How Porn Has Hijacked Our Sexuality (Beacon Press, 2011) is about how porn is affecting our lives and why it's presence is damaging to our sexual freedom. Her point of view is just one point of view but it's very thought provoking and it makes you question a lot of things. A lot of things that you wouldn't generally think of. Some may not agree with her point-of-view because of her “anti-porn” agenda, but in this book Dine makes a fair amount of valid points.

Firstly I will support my premise that pornography does encourage freedom of speech and expression. Pornography in written or visual form would be considered to depict freedom of speech or expression. In written form, such as many popular books such as Fifty Shades of Grey, pornography is depicted and readers of this book as well as the author are not committing an illegal act. This is because the author has the freedom of speech to write such content. The production

When it comes to pornography society views it as something other then normal that should be excluded. However, due to the popular demand and increase in the people watching it I don’t believe it will be banned, or erased from society. Because the truth is we are living in a time were sexuality is acceptable, and should not be frown upon. So in conclusion, I don’t think that it is something bad, and I don’t feel that it is right fro people always discrediting a women in the industry. They like what they do and if they can live with themselves and their choices then who are we as a society to

I interviewed one person on each side of this issue, to get the token opinion that is popular on their side of the issue. On this side is Ursula, an extremely quotable quasi-feminist who makes a strong case for her side.[1] Ursula sums up the feminist argument by saying, "Guys see the idealized sex goddess, how can women compete?" First and foremost feminists argue that the idea of a naked woman in a magazine is degrading to that woman in particular and to women as a whole; Playboy and men's magazines in general make women out to be sex objects (Burstyn, 42). Playboy objectifies women, leaving out the human side (Burstyn, 43). Feminists also say that soft-pornography leads to hard-pornography which can then lead to violent crimes against women. Rick Heibert in his article "A hard line against soft porn" says that psychologists have found that viewing soft-pornography inevitably leads to harder material (par 4). Others would take this a step further and contend that the viewing of violent pornography then leads to an increased likelihood of committing a violent sexual crime (Cramer 202). These articles would present statistical research backing themselves up, more likely than not the Meese Commission will make it in to any feminist critique.

Pornography shows people as sex objects. For people who fear they aren't sexually adequate, this is scary. “The social myth covering this personal fear is that consumers of pornography will begin to see all men or women that way. This naive, inaccurate assumption also denies the healthy dynamic of lovers agreeing to objectify each other during their sexual (M K)." Pornography shows people experimenting via sex. This is a scary concept for those who fear that their experimenting can lead to trouble. Pornography invites viewers to stimulate their inner sexual feelings. Pornography also encourages acting on natural lustful instincts. It also depicts many of their fantasies are deemed as taboo in the standards set forth by society. By censoring pornography, such people feel they are keeping others out of danger, but in fact they are really suppressing others though of sexual fantasies and query. So in a culture where people learn to fear their own sexuality, sex appears to require censorship if it is sex for pleasure, healing, or

While many will argue that pornography is not harmful and a “victimless crime”, are not of the real effects that pornography can have on a family, or a society as a whole. First of all pornography is detrimental, because it treats humans as objects. Pornography depicts people, especially women, in demeaning and degrading ways. Even if the only ones involved were adults who freely chose to be involved in the production of pornography and even if they were compensated well enough to feel good about what they are doing, pornography does not build the integrity of persons who are made in the image of God. Another effect of pornography is that it is linked to different forms of violence. Pornography can be linked to rape, abuse, murder, and other felonies. Pornography is also harmful to society in that the outlets for obscene material are often outlets for other material such as prostitution, pandering, drug dealing etc. Finally, pornography harms the family. Like other sins, pornography is addictive and progressive.

Boteach explains in the article “Take The Pledge” about how pornography ruined Mr. Weiner and Huma Abedin's relationship. Boteach from SIRS writes in the same article that porn addiction wreaks those closest to the addict and provides an example of how pornography destroyed Mr. Weiner and Huma Abedin’s relationship. This goes to show how bad pornography really is and how it has enough power to break up a marriage(Boteach #1). People should not be able to view pornography because people are putting their closest relationships at risk. Khadaroo describes how pornography leads to ending of relationships. “Health Crisis” by Khadaroo says “ One of the concerns the resolution cites, for instance, is that pornography is ‘linked to lessening desire in young men to marry, dissatisfaction in marriage, and infidelity’”(Khadaroo #4). This quote is saying pornography is not good for anyone or anyone's loved ones. Pornography should be banned from the views of everyone. Pornography splits and tears people from their family, friends, and that special someone. Pornagraphers are not only hurting themsleves but they are hurting the ones who care about and the ones that cares about them. Even though people want to ban pornography because it splits up relationships, everyone's first amendment gives you the right to view

Human culture has had pornography around ten thousands of years in art,writing,and other methods. However, in this modern day and age, it is unquestionable easily accessed via the internet as technology has gotten better some countries are open about pornography while others ban it outright or only ban some pornography. In the United States only one type of pornography is banned and considered criminal currently and that is child pornography for logical viewpoint children can neither show nor give their consent. However, this is about pornography as a whole if it is once again being considered an issue or being a recurring scapegoat. Personally, I consider it as recurring scapegoat seeing this is not the first time it has been brought up.

For many years there has been a lot of arguments about the ethical and morality of pornography. pornography is defined as the depiction of erotic behavior intended to cause sexual excitement. When it coms down to pornography, people have different opinions about it. Some people might find it moral because it gives them pleasure and it satisfies them physically. some individuals see it as a form of art that describes the figure of a human body in an artistic form. Others see it as immoral because it harms and degrades an individual. Personally I believe that it all depends how pornography is conducted and how we respond to it. It can be morally healthy that we like it because it makes us happy, such as it helps with your marriage relationship in intimacy, and it can be immoral when it is used in an unhealthy that we do not like it because hurts an innocent person.

Ethics Pornography is a social problem and is a commodity brought into existence by certain characteristics of a highly developed civilization. The problem with pornography is that any form of censorship or downplay cannot solve it. It is difficult to draw the line between ones right to express their ideas and or opinions or sexuality

Humanity has struggled with determining the best option to solve their ethical dilemmas that they run into in their life. Analyzing and determining the best option to take can leave an individual lost in faith and building a relationship with God. Building a God foundation in your life will help you in every ethical dilemma that you face. The only way to solve an ethical dilemma with viewing pornography is to view the dilemma according to a Christian worldview and compare different options to solve the ethical dilemma.

Lindsay Rohland (2015) defined an ethical dilemma as, “a complicated situation in which one must make a difficult choice or decision in the face of conflicting morals.” The choice between right or wrong may seem a challenging but a person’s morals are typically influenced by religion. Christianity has answers for every dilemma a person could be facing. The ethical dilemma of pornography will be analyzed by the Christian worldview, and compared to the perspective of the pantheistic worldview.

“Never before in history of telecommunications media in the United States has so much indecent (and obscene material been so easily accessible by so many minors in so many American homes with so few restrictions” (qtd in “Pornography and Child Sexual Abuse”). The problem addressed in the quote by the U.S. Department of Justice is pornography, a 10 billion dollar industry, has made its way from discreet taboo to something that is today considered acceptable and even common. With the internet being such a common tool, it is no surprise that there is easy access to sexually explicit material. The widespread accessibility and usage of pornography has changed people’s outlook on the normality of watching such sexually explicit material, and
