Re: If prostitution is illegal, then why is porn legal?
Bank robbery is illegal,yet we see it in the movies???
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 711379

yet, your missing the must obvious of points. they are not actually robbing a real bank in the movie...you sir, are a fucking moron to use your analogy as your argument. porn=ppl really fucking- bank robbery in movies=fake
see the difference?
personally for me, i think it has something to do with some form of moral detachment. For instance, if the actually see it in person its sick and uneasy to stomach at the idea of someone demoralizing themselves for $$$. Yet, do the exact same thing in front of a camera it's somehow much different. somehow sugar-coated to the view when its actually quite the same thing.

Its pretty much the same thing!
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 878440



Why is heroine illegal but morphine is not??? there is more profit in the illegal for the key regulators than any regulated industry.

Regulation is taxation and standards and ideals of morals.

You tell me a good Vicodin addict yeah you may think because it is "prescribed" it is ok.. but you are just a junkie with a prescription pad pass..

Gambling is the same.. They give the restrictions in life to make those feel there are rules....

But in the end the true rules in life fly better without restriction.
I really am not nearly as interesting as I should be but I certainly will try to find interest in nearly everything I can be. self quote.

'porn' is greek for prostitute.

'pornography' = 'making images of prostitution'

Freedom of speach.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 568763



It's very hard (pardon the pun) to define porn.

Yes - hardcore movies are porn.

What about page 3 girls?

Victoria's secret catalogue?

A dirty Joke?

A book with a sex scene?

An "R" rated movie with a boob shot?

In some nations - a woman showing too much ankle?

If porn is outlawed, its a slippery slope until everything the powers that be disagree with is outlawed.

Sex w/ a stranger brings the risk of acquiring an STD. Pornography use is much more addictive, and much more damaging to an individual's personal life and mental health. Porn is destroying families, lives and society much more than a prostitute ever could, and TPTB are making $Billions$ off of it in the process.

in canada, porn movies used to have a disclaimer at the beginning that the movie was for 'educational purposes' to skirt the pornography since there were education movies that showed intercourse.

Paying a person to give you sex is illegal. Paying two people to have sex with each other on camera is legal.

Good question, OP.

I had to laugh at the news last night (I live in Georgia). This was actually deemed important enough to make the national news .. mom in Iowa arrested for pimping out her 27 year old daughter. Daughter arrested as well. They showed their pictures and stated it had been going on for years. Why is that such a shocker? Porn and prostitution are rampant.

Collins English Dictionary – Complete and Unabridged © HarperCollins Publishers 1991, 1994, 1998, 2000, 2003 In my pea brain, I think anyone who stays in a loveless relationship because they want the big house, nice car, or can't afford to leave is prostituting. I have heard this from hundreds of people.

A good question....I guess because MEN make up religious fairy tales, establish the laws, and design them to ultimately be violated by many horny males and desperate, penniless females, so they can control both thru guilt and shame?

The harder the porn, the more the illusion your living in a freer society. One of many mind programming techniques they use.

You're looking for logic in our legal system, but it's sorely lacking. Marijuana has been illegal ever since the 1930s when a sinister propaganda campaign got the legislation passed by spreading false information. How many other laws are founded on lies and distortions?

Re: If prostitution is illegal, then why is porn legal?
I have often asked myself the same thing. It will be legal in my lifetime everwhere, I know it will (im 24) So dumb that people are getting arrested for this.
 Quoting: Moxie


Hardly. Prostitution involves slavery half the time if not more. Girls don't just go out and offer sex for money and get it (well they do..) but a lot of the time it involves pimps and the like, surprised you don't know this at 24.

The porn industry is filled with scumbags too but it's a much more controlled situation most of the time. These women get paid for their services most of the time.

So, if you get caught picking up a street prostitute, could you just say that you were picking up an actress to appear in your adult movie and beat the charge? Hmmm.

Porn is form of prostition that can be taxed. I do not feel comfortable with City or State services being fund by blood money. We needan accounting of tax dollars received from the porn industry. We will all probably puke when we see the figures (no pun intended). We will all see that many of our gov service have been heavily funded by exploitation of young women.

But big freakish cocks punging in and out of loose, stretched out pussies that have delivered a 15 pound baby, all filmed in detail....that is real. Seriously...do guys really believe the bullshit women feed them about "big cocks" after the women have pushed out a watermelon-sized baby?
