I sent her my thoughts on her article.

Hi Gail
I read your article on The truth about the porn industry and thought what a pack of half truths.
Violence against women is a cultural thing. If you were right, there would be no violence against women in societies that ban pornography and countries like Denmark would be so unsafe for women they would have to stay indoors.
The reasons for our society becoming more violent go far deeper than pornography and blaming porn is great for those who do have a hand in making our society more violent. Games, movies and music consumed by young males are far more likely to effect their attitudes towards women than porn will.
Porn has a 30 minute viewing window, find the movie you like, jerk off and go do something else. Violent, games, movies and music have a far worse effect on young males.
Relating that someone who enjoys violence against women and therefore enjoys watching the porn movies with that theme. To blaming the porn movies for creating the problem is far too simplistic. The reasons for violence against women go far deeper. Maybe as far as the Mothers relationship with her son in his earliest years. If you had done some unbiased research you would of seen many criminals convicted of violence against women came from families with poor parenting. So would you ban Mothers?
I've been in and around porn all my adult life and love women, treat them with respect as equals. According to you my wife would now be a battered wife. She's not and we are in a loving relationship.

ps you can discuss this point or ignore it as biased because of my trade. That tells you who you are. I'm ready to discuss it.
