I have to agree 100%. The sexual behavior the porn industry promotes is very perverted and way beyond normal. As far are the imagery, yes, I can recall quite a bit of the garbage mine eyes have seen. I'd rather be pure considering the crap I've had to endure.

I suppose the similarity is if each of us could recall the details of our first sexual encounter or extreme violent moment. Porn may have less of an indelible nature, but it does put our sex drive on warp speed (mine at least).

There's a difference between porn and tasteful art, and neither should be subsidized. The porn industry should be kept on a very very short leash as it is (and I prefer it to be gone completely). Scientific discovery (like researching the pornographic history of criminals) should reveal the true nature of porn. Likewise, we'd know rather than accept with wisdom the suffering men and mostly women suffer after abortion (of which porn entrepreneurs have always championed).

I hope more women drive this reckless sexual behavior away from what should be model manhood. Eventually, those that vehemently defend all porn of all kinds will expose themselves as the perverts they are.

If pornagraphy = perversion, then the majority of the world's population are perverts. Pornography is prevalent in all cultures, throughout history and across economic or social lines.

Exploitation is another matter. Rape, violence, child abuse and non-consensual acts have no place in society and should not be peddled.

Consenting adults however should have the right to view material produced by other consenting adults. There should be a strict line on how this is available and kept out of children's hands and minds.

Attitudes that differ from this are what causes people to associate the red states with that 'old time religion'. Which I for one think is a very small part of the conservative block in this country. The liberals would love to paint us all as Bible thumping moralists. The fundamental core of our freedom is keeping the government out of our lives. This should be kept in mind at all times. In addition, I believe that what you do in your life is between you and your maker. I don't need the government confiscating my Playboys thank you and I don't think I am going to burn in hell for checking out a Penthouse occasionaly.

Know exactly what you mean. You can't "un-see" something once you've seen it.

It's not necessarily what goes into you that defiles you but what comes out of you. Christ said"It is not what goes into a man that defiles him but what comes out of him, for what goes into him goes into the (draught)digestive system." It is how a man chooses to act that defiles him!

Like my grandma said"Bats may fly thru your belfry, but you don't have to let them make a nest!"

Proverbs says "Guard the heart, for OUT of it flows the issues of life"

Many of us here have come across or stumbled upon sensuous materials in our child-hoods that we remember. Yet I doubt there are many serial rapists among us!
