The 70s was far worse. "Pretty Baby", "Taxi Driver", the multitude of European films that are even more explicit than the two I mentioned. British photographer David Hamilton sold coffee table books of his photos of naked 13-year olds. Jimmy Page and David Bowie were sharing the same 14-year old girlfriend, parading her around the clubs shamelessly. Roman Polanski pleading to essentially a slap on the wrist for raping a child. In many European countries, child porn wasn't even illegal. The internationally-observed 18-year age minimum to make porn is largely a product of the internet. Prior to that, girls far younger than 18 were legally working in the porn business, particularly in Scandinavia which then had infamous reputation as an producer and exporter of child pornography.
Pretty Baby was banned in Ontario at the time it was released although if one lived near the border one could have gone to Quebec NY or Michigan I imagine to see it.
Anally raping her, no less; and in California, where Governor Newsom just signed a bill into law allowing judges to reduce the legal penalties for doing that. I'll bet Polanski's regretting having fled to Europe over that incident now. (He fled because contrary to his expectations when plea-bargaining, he was going to have to spend some time in prison, though it was still a pretty light sentence as I recall.) The legislature's fig-leaf justification for passing that bill was that the penalties for anally or orally sodomizing an underage child (of either sex) were higher than for vaginal rape, so they were equalizing them; it didn't occur to anybody to try raising the penalties for vaginal rape instead?
Incidentally, something a lot of people don't seem to have noticed in the transcript of his victim's heartbreaking testimony: the lawyer asks her whether she knows what sex is, and whether she's had any before, and she answers both questions in the affirmative. She was thirteen at the time. If that's how things were in California then (when it could still give its electoral votes to Ronald Reagan in 1980 and 1984), I'd probably hate to see how much further along on its slide into depravity the state is now when it's a one-party Democrat-run hellhole.
