Pornography

After watching some of these videos, I was shocked by one of these. One video shows a list of women and men who died because of different problems such as drug abuse, rape, or suicide. This shows that pornography is not helping anyone. Pornography does not help men nor women liberate themselves from sexism or misogyny. It even makes the situation worse. Men would create fantasies of real women who just care for sex or enjoy being treated badly so men would actually apply those things to them. This also targets young men and nurtures them thinking that way.

  1. That video is very powerful. It is made by Shelly Lubben, a survivor of the sex industry, and it shows how hard the lives are of so many people in the sex industry. I think it behooves consumers of porn to know more about the lives of people who are making the product they are consuming. If they knew, maybe they would make different choices.
