[b]Pornography:



Does it demean women?



...or simply raise the standards by which they are to be judged?[/b]

In the US, pornography is protected by the First Amendment since it is an artistic expression. Some of it can be questioned as an artistic expression, like when a woman makes a horse happy with her mouth...

It can only being demeaning and degrading to women if the woman is forced to do it. Let us not forget the man. No one ever takes into account his feelings because that would mean treating people equally.

And really, who are the people saying that this is demeaning to women? It's the fat out of shape house wife who hasn't been touched by her husband in years because he's banging his secretary. It's also the female activitst who is one lick away from being a lesbian who says that it demeans women. Anyways, the only people's opinions that matter are the actors and actresses in the films since that is their way of expressing their artistic creativity, no matter if you like it or not.
