The Importance Of Pornography

In the United States, pornography is considered to be neither legal nor illegal. With the exception of child pornography, there are no laws regarding the sell, distribution, creation, nor purchase of pornography. Despite studies finding it to be “degrading and detrimental to society”, Congress is not able to regulate pornography. One of the reasons is the current misinterpretation of church and state. Congress is not able to use religious standards of morality to judge obscenity.

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.

The seemingly main reason there is such a growth in pornography is because almost everyone and everything in the world reacts and relates to sex. People are captivated with sex and are excited to see something new or something they have not seen before. People are always looking for a version of sex that is new or more different than the norm. This is soaring the pornography industry to grow one step further in order to keep up with the demand.

The impacts of pornography in the modern world are far reaching. Its motives remain unaddressed, and hence people create varying views towards it. One wonders whether pornography silences women. If it does, then how? Then, why women and not the opposite gender? If pornography harms women, why do they still act it? The clip may have two meanings, literal and symbolical. However, the speaker seems to be delivering her information. Still, one may wonders how pornography subordinate woman yet mostly acted by women. The female body has always been mysterious. Then how does pornography play as a tool of subordination? For a person to understand the speaker’s claims, it may be wise to understand the purpose of pornography. The mystery of pornography is broad. There are those who act, those who advertise and market it and those who watch. Most of pornographic images and videos are recorded using high definition graphics. Still, most pornographic content free to access and download. Then how to its producer’s pay back the production cost? Many people may hold that there exist different motives behind pornography. Though, most people hold differing views towards pornography. The insights from the clip suggest some attitudes to the viewer.

They explain how, in recent years, the pornographic marketing scheme, along with the internet’s global communication and sharing versatility, is designed to increase pornographic ratings in the young and adult alike. The authors describe how pornographic material is used in different stages of life, the social and personal factors that exacerbate the psychological need for pornography, and the extent to which pornography negatively impacts a variety of, seemingly disconnected, areas in the subject’s life. However, the source for this study are not children or adolescents, but primarily adult males, married and some with children. Nonetheless, both age groups share the same dualistic psychological/social patterns that trigger the constant use of pornography and their hidden shame of

After reading this article, the tone that I got from this was an informative tone. However, the format that the author chose to write his argument was poor, there were limitation in regards to the information about the advantages and disadvantages of pornography in relation to couples. I think that the points that were stated could have been explained more to grasp the readers. Also most of the points that were brought forward were based upon individuals’ opinions. I think a survey should have been carried so that readers could get a better understanding of what was written and also to strengthen the argument about pornography.

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.

The majority of modern pornography is not art, and by using a selective definition of Leo Tolstoy’s version of art, and John Dewey’s theory of art as experience, we can determine that pornography is nothing more than shallow entertainment that exacerbates social inequalities of society’s gender roles. Despite this, pornography has the potential to become art, and should therefore not be censored.

In the 1980s in America, a war raged. There were casualties and broken lives. What transpired during that war changed the face of America for generations. This was not a war between countries however; this was a war between women: what they called the “The Feminist Sex Wars”. “Anti-porn” feminists led by Andrea Dworkin debated with “pro-sex” feminists on subjects such as prostitution, erotica, and pornography and their position within feminism and our society. Dworkin and her supporters argued that these were products of a patriarchal society, that these were extremely harmful toward the image and status of women. Others such as Susie Bright argue that prostitution and pornography can be “feminist” or empowering to women, and are not intrinsically harmful. In this paper, I will endorse the view of radical feminists that pornography is harmful, not only for those who appear in it, but those who consume it.

Pornography is the perfect propaganda piece for patriarchy. In nothing else is their hatred of us quite as clear."

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.

One of the most prominent and detrimental forms of sexual objectification is in pornography, where it defines a woman’s role as a sexual object for men to use freely (Insert Plato Citation). It was concluded that 88% of the scenes on porn contain acts of physical aggression, which can overexpose men into thinking that this sort of aggression is normal and raise their tolerance of violence (Insert PornStats Citation). It can further warp the minds of the watchers into thinking that this is what relationships and sex are truly like, when in reality many women are forced into the industry or are overly intoxicated to keep the entire experience feeling numb (Insert ThePinkCross Citation). Pornography also touches in on an even darker subject

The first central question investigated in this study is focused on how the male's rate and intensity of porn consumption in a relationship, has a negative correlation with the self-esteem of the women and their perception on relationship quality, and sexual satisfaction. The second central question investigated in this study questions whether the women's self-esteem can reveal a connection between the male's rate and intensity of porn consumption with the relationship quality and sexual satisfaction in the relationship. The third question is similar to the latter question where the length of the relationship is the factor reveal the connection between the male's rate and intensity of porn consumption with the relationship quality and sexual satisfaction in the relationship.

While pornography is not only degrading to women, it is degrading to men as well because it is mostly deemed unethical, it is viewed based on Ethical Theories and moral reasoning, and it is not always intellectually stimulating. Pornography is printed or visual material containing explicit description of sexual body parts or activity, intended to stimulate erotic versus emotional feelings. Depending on the manner that the pornography is brought about it can be stimulating to some, but have no effect on others. To me this is considered to be a two part question. From my point of view porn does not affect me. I don’t believe that it is degrading to women, if the women willingly consent to performing these sexual acts. In the pornographic photos or videos the men are also exposing themselves. Between the two people performing the acts I actually don’t think it is degrading to either party when there is a mutual agreement between the two parties.

Pornography is used to stimulate erotic feelings through explicit videos. The sexual content in the films rarely demonstrates the importance of contraceptive or STD preventive behaviors. “Video pornography found that only 1% of scenes mentioned contraception” (Wright & Randall, 2012). Most times teenagers will engage in watching pornography for the experience, the know-how and to stimulate erotic feelings. In those videos, contraception is not promoted. Without this promotion, this can lead young students to unknown risks of unprotected sex. The universal acceptance of pornography has changed the past views on sex. In past views on sex, you were supposed to wait until marriage, use protection and not to engage in countless sexual behaviors. In today's society, it is becoming acceptable at a young age to have sex. Pornography affects the behavior of young people by manipulating their understanding of sexual attitudes and behaviors that are acceptable. When engaging in sexual behaviors that are not clearly understood, there are risks that can happen such as STD, HIV or unwanted pregnancy. Unwanted pregnancies can happen when a person is not aware of the risks especially among high school students, this could result in abortion.
