No. Adult pronographairians should marry, and regulate themselves.

Heehee, oh brother did you just open a can of worms!
I really don’t care what consenting adults do or watch in their homes. I have my own things to worry about. However, if someone likes adult videos and has children around, those flicks should be out of reach from the kids. In a locked gun safe, if needed.
I’m sure you are familiar with Dr. James Dobson, and his interview with Jeffrey Dahmer. Not all people who watch pornographic movies or read Playboy, turn into maniacs, but it seems that most maniacs are addicted to pornography.
I’m not talking “Debbie Does Dallas”, or Ron Jeremy flicks. For the record, my bf and I don’t like or watch porno, and buried my son’s stash in ziploc bags. He can have them back when he moves out.

So long as illegal acts are not depicted and everyone is over 18 then I don’t see why. I don’t like the nanny-state tendancies of a lot of todays so called “conservatives.” If you don’t want to see porno, then don’t surf there. If you don’t like the content of a TV show, don’t watch it. No need for people to go running like libs to the government everytime something offends them.

Yawn. This is of interest only to a small coterie of well-meaning but clueless Puritans, who have no hope of putting the genie back in the bottle.
Porn goes back to caveman days and will exist until the end of time.

Government trying to interfere again. Great. They will just make it easier to get porn if they get involved and probably have even worse type of porn. Government is a job when it comes to morals. Let every person decide for themselves and their families.

I would not want children to view pornography. On the other hand, I don't want the state to decide what adults can see and read.

In a case in the late 70's, for example, a study of the City of Detroit found that in some cases the rates of crime, sexual abuse and molestation were 400 to 500% higher in areas where pornography and sex shops proliferated than in other parts of the city. Many other cities and towns have reported similar results.
Is this saying that these crimes went up after the shops went in, or that they are just higher in the areas where the shops are? If it is the latter, it doesn't seem like a valid point. Sex shops generally aren't in the high class areas anyway.
Also I don't think it is moral relativism to say that everyone will define obscenity differently. It would be interesting to see what everyone on here though. I'm guessing we would have a lot of Potter Stewarts who know it when they see it.

If it’s adult themed for adults only, what’s there to regulate? I can think of the .XXX domain but what else?
