Pornography issue

I think that pornography is a disgusting form of entertainment and i very degrading, and men don't realise that the women on these films are fake and would do anything for money.

They also don't realise what it does to women that are in a relationship with them(yes, married men and unmarried men in a relationship so watch porn too) it makes them feel useless, ugly, used and unloved. It maked them think that they are worthless next to these great looking, big boobed, perfect bodied women and the men are that selfish thet they carry on doing it and don't think about the consequences.

What they do in these videos is unatural and revolting. When you have sex with a partner/wife/husband it should be an amazing experince thats full of warmth and love for each other and it should be somethig that only the two of you share, it's the best moment you canhave with each other, you get to show each other how much you want them and express you're love throught it too. But in these porn movies it's just about dirty sex and "kinky" things likw whips/dildos etc, it really is disgusting and a lot of people don't realise that it creates a lot of insecurity in women and men and leaves them depressed because they're always striving to be like the pornstars and celebrities and then maybe their partner/wife/husband might have sex with them instead of themselves while imagining horrible things.

Does anyone else have an opinion??

It's a commodity. People buy them or they wouldn't be produced. Collecting pornography has been around since man learned to scratch rocks with sharp sticks and it's not likely to go away. Video is just current technology presenting the same product cavemen enjoyed. As to judging sexual relation circumstances that offend your moral sense, don't look at it. What may be kinky to you may be pleasure to someone else.

I agree but sex has been so twisted and brought out of proprtion from the world being shown porn. Kinky wouldn't exist if it wasn't for porn.

Wrong. What you consider kinky has been around forever.

Thanks for your opinion but lets keep it at that and not take it to the law.

Porn is fun, it is exciting, and in some cases artistic. Just because you are turned off and it is disgugting to you dosen't make it so for everyone. Then again if you are talking about hetero porn I agree with you it is digusting but only because it shows women.

ALL types of porn are disgusting, they are NO way artisitc, they are degrading. What makes you think that gay porn is any different, you are still viewing the guy just for his body, which is what hetro men do to women they see on porn.

Bestiality is mentioned throughout history, whips and chains aren't all that modern either and just a fantasy version of the power play that occurs in any relationship (this sort of thing is on shaky ground far as I'm concerned, getting close to poking the dark parts of human nature that should probably be left unpoked), teen/underaged stuff is everywhere to the extent that it even enters into the body alteration stuff. Fake boobs and things are hardly part of a new phenomon, whilst the techology has improved people were doing things to themselves to make them see more sexually appealing for millenia.

Unless you're idea of fun is giant robots doing it, chances are its been done before.

How far do you have to go to get to degrading? High heels, make up, shaving or any other thing that is ment to make people like your body more. A lot of people like being looked at and considered sexy, what makes this so fundamentally different?

On top of that, if you consider sex between partners "an amazing experince thats full of warmth and love for each other and it should be somethig that only the two of you share, it's the best moment you can have with each other, you get to show each other how much you want them and express you're love throught it too" might that not be considered art? Not all porn is done by pornstars without even getting onto talking theorectically about using sex as an art form.

I think there is good erotic art out there. However most of what would be considered porn I just find stupid. Kind of hilarious in reverse.

But they Georged is right - kink is not new. We ain't got NOTHING on the ancient Romans.

That is so true. They would put erect penises on their houses the way we lights or on their walls the way we put up sconces. They worshiped the phallis. It was on every street corner and in every home.

How far do you have to go to get to degrading? High heels, make up, shaving or any other thing that is ment to make people like your body more. A lot of people like being looked at and considered sexy, what makes this so fundamentally different?

On top of that, if you consider sex between partners "an amazing experince thats full of warmth and love for each other and it should be somethig that only the two of you share, it's the best moment you can have with each other, you get to show each other how much you want them and express you're love throught it too" might that not be considered art? Not all porn is done by pornstars without even getting onto talking theorectically about using sex as an art form.

Degrading is not high heels, make up etc, it's actually having sex and filming it and then showing it, because of this women have now got an image in mens eyes that they should be perfect and want sex all the time and have to give sex in this way. It makes women think that they have to be fake to be liked/loved. This is why we have young girls being anorexic and getting plastic surgery all for the sake of a man to have a wank.

You consider it an art but would you film you and your partner and then show it to evryone and would you show this so called art to your children, i don't think so, it's not art it's trash (oh, if you want art like that i'll go take a picture of my bin). Just face it porn is for wankers (pardon my language) not artists.
