One of my jobs is working at a videostore. There was a day in which a woman called up and asked if there was sex and nudity in John Carpenter's Halloween. She wanted to know in order to decide if she would let her son rent it. She was bothered that her son saw Friday the 13th and that there was sex and nudity in it. I told her about what sex and nudity is in Halloween. I answered her question as best I could but It struck me funny that
it did not concern that both movies are about serial killers.

Yep, it amuses the hell out of me that somehow boobies are bad but dismemberment is okay.

This is something this foolish woman should be looking into and its relationship to porn.

But that's not her agenda and no one else would listen.

paul you sound guilty. like your conscience isn't fully clear on the matter.

It is isn't It

Nice try troll. :1orglaugh

Abusive assholes are who cause violence against women.

paul markham you are my idol!!!!

Yeah, have a kid grow up watching his mom get bit up and then blame porn because he thinks it is normal to hit a girl.

Porn gets more and more aggressive for the shock factor not because every guy secretly wants to get home, bit the crap out of his wife, pull a Texas chilli dog and then go have dinner with the kids.

The problem is the society of excess that we live in and how people are raising their kids. The choices that parents make when bringing up their children is what fucks up society but it is just a lot easier to point the finger at the porn industry than to take blame for the fucked up world we live in.

the real issue that as far as human relations we are still at a primitive level. although many men proclaim to be white knights and love women the real reality is many many men hate women, fear them, denigrate them, see them solely as sex objects, think they are stupid. porn reflects that. then those videos create a feedback loop that accelerates those worldviews. it's a complex issue, but getting rid of porn wont cure misogyny. that is a fantasy, but to say porn has no negative effects at all is fantasy as well.

of course guys who pimp out their wives will say i'm wrong.

I actually agree with you, to say all men love women and there are no negative feelings there to start off with would be delusional.

Well that's because most of them are '_'

I used to have a similar argument about gangster rap and violence with a friend, it would often go like this:

Him: it's totally stupid to say there is a connection between a form of music and violence!

Me: I believe you .... Hey what are you going to listen to when you work out today?

Him: I dunno, I have all kinds of music on my playlist. Most of it is rock.

Me: why rock? Why not jazz or country?

Him: I need music that gets me pumped up and full of energy! Why are you asking such stupid questions?

Me: just curious. It's a bit Interesting.... You are saying the music you listen to causes an actual physiological change in your body. It changes your mood ... Your attitude.... Your level of agression. Your energy levels.
