| 7. just one little observation for now |
|
There is a virtual 100% correlation between women’s rights and the acceptance of porn in a society. These two things mirror each other absolutely. When women’s rights are on the upswing in a society then pornography is nearly always becoming more available and more acceptable. When women’s rights are lessening there is nearly always a decreasing acceptance of porn and it will be less and less available and increasingly criminalized.
It might equally be argued -- and I would argue -- that the upswing in the availability and acceptance of pornography that "mirrors" advances in women's rights is, in fact, a backlash to advances in women's rights.

Feminist anti-pornography stances have nothing to do with the social construct of morality. |
