I've never 'used' porn and frankly don't really understand why people need to.
However the sex trade is responsible for an awful lot of abuse and misery in the world and pornography is a big part in that.
How do you know that the people you are looking at on the internet are totally willing participants and are being payed well for what they are doing?
I have a friend who was a page 3 model - which is the lighter end of porn, but it was a grimy exploitative world and not remotely glamorous.I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

Probably she did, but that doesn't invalidate Pogle's comment. If you want to enjoy pron, knock yourself out. But don't pretend it isn't pretty miserable for most participants.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

Do you worry about wearing clothes as well ?
everyone goes around naked the whole time => no children making clothes in sweatshops
plus, everyone gets to see loads of nakedness all the time => no need for pron thereby saving the exploited!

There's a parallel with the likes of us. Some would say we're exploited by employers looking to abuse us and deny us our employee rights, and some would say the life of a contractor is pretty miserable - lots of commuting, no paid holiday, no security, getting the crapest seat in the office, etc. etc. Whereas we say "wahayy look at my wad!".
It may be naive to think there aren't abuses, but equally I think it's naive to think there aren't people who do this perfectly willingly and are happy to put up with what may be a miserable job for the cash, just like we do.Will work inside IR35. Or for food.Comment
