"Surely one of the sillier arguments that exist. I don't want my daughter to grow up to operate a manure spreader either, but that doesn't mean I think manure spreading should be illegal. Luckily for you."
And it's silly of you to complain about an argument that I was not making.
I was referring to Jeremiah's observation about those who are claiming that porn is harmless entertainment and can even be a good thing.
Jeremiah pointed out that not too many folks are PROUD to admit they are porn hounds. I assume that is because most people instinctively know it is not a good thing.
So...my point was that if people really think it can be a good thing - they wouldn't mind at all if their daughters starred in a movie now would they?
I would think folks would much prefer their daughters to spread manure than to star in a porn movie.
And my point was, that's a pretty silly criterion for deciding whether something's good, bad, or indifferent. We'd ban septic tank repair if the "would you want your daughter doing it?" test were applied to the public at large.
If it were something that fit her personality and interests, I wouldn't mind. But I don't think it's a career track that suits her.
Would I watch it? No. Would I be entirely comfortable with it? No. OTOH, I'm not entirely comfortably thinking about what my daughter may go through if she's going to have children.
