I'm going to bet you've never actually interacted with any variation of porn. Not all porn is full of rough sex and women being treated like a "piece of meat". Sure there is plenty of shitty porn that treats women like crap and perpetuates negative ideals. But there are as many variations of porn as there are people. <br />Women love porn! I've seen women bullshit about how terrible porn is, then pull out book that is just as pornographic.<br />There is soft gentle porn. There is loving spouses porn. There is video porn, photographic porn, audio porn, erotic literature porn. We may call it other things, but it's all porn.<br />It's easy to just write off the word porn as "bad, terrible, nothing good", but when it comes down to it you're more than likely not being honest or you're just ignorant about the subject. <br /><br />Also, what did that comment have to do with porn anyway? He was talking about the authors comment on how apparently her husband lusting after anyone is cheating, which is ridiculous. We lust after everything all the time. I lusted after a steak last night. Women lust after men, men lust after women. It's normal, it's natural, it's why conservatives get married. So they can act on their lustful desires while sticking to the social and cultural constructs they have been indoctrinated to believe. Just because you get married doesn't mean you stop lusting after others. You just make a conscious choice to not act on those desires.

You are absolutely hilarious while speaking very difficult TRUTH. I love it! I try to talk to others about the dangers of porn but it is incredibly awkward and uncomfortable but TOTALLY NECESSARY. A priest told me that porn is taking over money as the main cause of marriages failing. It is a silent destroyer. Thank you for bringing it to light! I love the phrase "quacks like humiliation" and "fauxminism." The only thing I would like to remark on is the use of the term "patriarchal." I do not have a problem with patriarchy, for many men are virtuous and lead their wives/families on the true path. It is the men who refuse to rise to the highest meaning of Man, who drag women to the depths of depravity, who are at issue.

I will say this (and this is a guy's perspective): one of the either intentional or unintentional byproducts of the feminist/women's liberation movement is that it empowered a whole generation of women to take charge of their lives sexually. This has resulted in a net increase in premarital sexual activity, marital infedility, abortion, teenage sex, and yes, female viewing of pornography, which is on the rise. These things have, in turn, contributed to the increased sexualification of society, of which pornography is a byproduct. The issue then is so much larger than just what men are looking at on their computers. It encompasses a whole society that now has an extremely twisted view of sex (as mentioned in the article), and an industry that is happy to meet the growing demand for more. Women have clearly had an important role to play in this. So, in addition to making it a male problem that women need to police in their homes, we desperately need a generation of men AND women who will stand up and say NO, offer grace to those who have been caught in the clutches of pornography (because it is very much an addiction), and are willing to promote traditional values that, though they seem outdated, actually have a direct role in protecting children, preserving families, and empowering women.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5304779787487491003.post-14671705323687259442013-04-06T19:43:22.341-07:002013-04-06T19:43:22.341-07:00I think it's only the, what I call, "fun ...I think it's only the, what I call, "fun feminists" that are OK with porn, who even watch it. Most of the feminists I know, myself included, do not watch porn, nor do we support it. Just the opposite! Radical feminists are also very much anti-porn. More so than any other group I've encountered. <br /><br />Otherwise, I agree with everything else. My home, my marriage, my life, etc., is devoid of porn. I also do not attend parties that have male strippers. My husband avoids bachelor parties that contain visits to strip clubs. We do this, mainly, out of respect for one another and our selves. But, also, because it's a damaging industry all around.

It's so much more than that. Marriage is a covenant. A covenant differs from a contract about as much as marriage differs from prostitution. I think a good husband would not only not want to go to the bachelor party if he knows a stripper will be there, but he'd get up and leave once he found out one was performing. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01435759811076424387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5304779787487491003.post-16398896047151929342013-04-06T06:04:46.572-07:002013-04-06T06:04:46.572-07:00Aaaaaaaaaaannnddd....SHARE!

I find this to be slightly biased in her view regarding the struggles men deal with, which are not necessarily greater in magnitude than that of women, but do exist nonetheless and are often never addressed. She does this in order to play on the "Be strong and stand up to men" idea feminism has created which seems to captivate women to the point of marital abuse in some cases. Gender equality is a subject you can get a PhD in, and is not a simple topic. "if my husband lusts after another woman, that’s infidelity" says to me that she seriously lacks an understanding of human nature. If lusting is cheating, everyone's a cheater, because what's unnatural is forcing yourself to not find others attractive rather than learning to accept and deal with it appropriately. Besides that, I think there are some good points made regarding porn's ever changing effect on our perception of what the ideal women AND MAN should look like, or even act like, especially at a young age. Regardless, there is an argument to be had to say porn is negative, demeaning and it's use CAN, but not always effect relationships negatively, depending on the security and beliefs of both parties. Nonetheless, I think this writer overlooked some important considerations. One good argument is whether porn is an outlet for desires and fantasies, or does it perpetuate inappropriate desires for those things artificial?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12206177812814505581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5304779787487491003.post-62478639801337548872013-04-05T17:20:57.113-07:002013-04-05T17:20:57.113-07:00Both my husband and I agree 100%.
