Wax on, wax off…
For anyone missing the pary and thrust of vigourous fucking debate, Metafilter has picked up on the porn myths post and is having fun with it. Break out those textbooks, hit up Wikipedia, and enjoy the fun of endless, mindless psudo-intellectual argument. Thank Xemu for the internet eh?
Why do debates about porn always begin with assumed degradation? Degradation’s not my thing at all (unless I’m having one of ‘those’ days and I’m chained up in my gimp-suit eating dog-food).
This is happy porn, go and make some more. Please.
Just to be clear, the degradation angle was there because I figured it would spark the discussion. It worked, probably too well.
I’m pretty much in agreement with your nine points. I’d say MetaFilter is as well, on the whole. I tried to present your article in a way that supported the opposite view becuase I knew that that side would be under-represented.
Anus,
I’m totally with you. Thanks for reading and making the post originally if you did. I love a good debate, it was just surprising to see how passionate some people are about the ‘evils’ of sexuality. I’m European, I like sex and puritanism freaks me out - like small kids who stare without smiling.
