Porn
 
This is an issue with today's society. Do you think that internet porn is corrupting our future? what are your feelings on it?

Bond 03-23-2003 10:36 PM

If it wasn't internet porn it would be something else. Each generation always thinks the other one is being corrupted.

Crono 03-23-2003 10:40 PM

My opinion? Being exposed to pornography is much better than being exposed to violence. I don't see why society sees nudity as such a problem when they allow games like GTA to be on the market and available to kids. Doesn't make sense to me. Although there is those rating labels, no one takes them seriously...

So yeah, I don't see porn as a problem in society.

BlueFire 03-23-2003 10:44 PM

I agree with Crono and Bond. If it wasn't porn, it would be something else. I don't see the big problem with porn. :unsure:

One Winged Angel 03-23-2003 10:44 PM

I agree with you guys. I just hear politicians arguing about it all the time. I look at porn and it doesn't make me a pervert. It's not going to make me commit rape or molest anyone. Society thinks that anything that may be somewhat gross thinks that what our future will be like.

BreakABone 03-23-2003 10:58 PM

Am I the only one who finds it odd that when one problem is proved not to be the problem something else is?

I mean Television was a problem, movies was a problem, videogames, porn, magazine, music lyrics, it's like everything is a bad, but let if you try and contain it, the problem still exists.

GameKinG 03-23-2003 11:53 PM

As long as it isnt corruption of porn through video games, I think its ok.

Dyne 03-24-2003 03:01 AM

If it wasn't for porn you would see a lot more rape scandals.

GameKinG 03-24-2003 09:54 AM

They say looking at a lot of porn may cause you to rape people later. I doubt it....but...some say that.

sdtPikachu 03-24-2003 10:57 AM

Yah, a classic anti-pr0n argument.

Which came first - the hard on or the jazz mag? Porn is there to satisfy a need, nothing more, nothing less. People who rape and stalk are socially imbalanced in the first place, and are drawn to pr0n/whatever due to this. Censorship lobbies tend to look at it the other way around of course. Rape has existed since well before pronography was even conceived, and banning it all ain't gonna make a jot of difference.

Just for the record, I couldn't give a rats arse about pr0n, it bores me to tears.

TheGame 03-24-2003 12:09 PM

I think exposing a child to porn can hurt them mentally more than exposing them to violence. Exposing a small child to natural sexual behavior (or a "love" scene) isn't as bad.

I mean, I'd rather my child know that if a guy has a gun don't f**k with him, then him knowing if you lick a girl the right way she'll love you for it.

That's just how I see it

Perfect Stu 03-24-2003 12:38 PM

What's this about? Porn existing in general or children's exposure to porn?

I dunno :confused:

Joeiss 03-24-2003 03:39 PM

If it wasn't for porn, I would be very very bored.

Seven7 03-24-2003 06:51 PM

some say if it weren't for all the porn that exists online, the net would be a safer place.

what kind of porn are we talking about anyways...tame stuff or hardcore or even stuff like hentai???

Joeiss 03-24-2003 08:24 PM

What's a hentai?

anyhoo, i don't mind the porn, besides kids will find out about it sooner or later right? so who cares?

Yoda9864 03-24-2003 08:44 PM

I don't see porn as a problem in society, as long as the people in the porn are 18+. Anything younger is just wrong.

and not all of you guys are 18+ right :rolleyes:

Joeiss 03-24-2003 10:09 PM

Instead of using that smiley, can someboday please answer my question.

Xantar 03-24-2003 10:29 PM

It's Japanese anime porn. And because it's just a drawing instead of a real girl, it can depict all kinds of situations that might be

1. Sadistic
2. Involve underage girls
3. Just plain cruel
4. Unrealistic
5. Some combination of the above

But really, if you want to know about hentai, just look it up. You have to pay for it on the internet, but most hentai sites will give a tour or a sample just like regular porn sites.

As for the topic at hand, I don't mind internet porn. I don't look at it (except accidentally), but if you're old enough to see it, well then it's just filling demand. I really wish pornographers would stop spamming my mailbox, though.

Seven7 03-25-2003 12:16 AM

it never occurred to you to try google on that hentai Joeiss. ;)

Joeiss 03-25-2003 03:46 PM

Well, I figured that since you used hardcore and hentai in the same sentence, that it would be something that I did not want to look at.

And people actually get off to cartoon pornography?!?!?!!? That is disgusting.

Dyne 03-25-2003 05:41 PM

It's the thought that counts.

Mediocre 03-28-2003 07:37 PM

My elder sister is a model, I do not intend to follow in her steps.

BlueFire 03-28-2003 08:04 PM

Hentai is funny.

A sexual model? or just a model?

Both. The laws here on sexual modeling are not very strong and lightly enforced, child pornography is not rare. My sister tried to get me involved but I can think of better summer jobs to earn spending money.

Perfect Stu 03-29-2003 07:06 PM

What the hell is a 'sexual model'?

Like, a Playboy Bunny?

Joeiss 03-29-2003 07:15 PM

Well, like nude modeling, instead of like the fashion stuff.

Seven7 03-29-2003 09:07 PM

and what would she model a navel ring? :p J/K

:burger: Most of the time yes, I go to America often however to visit relatives who live there. (Thatfs how I learned English)

By the way modeling can pay up to 4,700 Yen per hour (US$39) which is quite alot, I however have better morals and im only 16. I might consiter it at an older age though, if I still look good enough to do it.

I don't see what's such the big problem with porn.Wow watching people having sex.Most people are going to end up having sex anyway so what da big deal?

mickydaniels 04-11-2003 11:23 AM

Porn is for lowlives.

Anyway, nude modeling, porn, strip clubs, the WWE divas are all the same to me. They show themselves off for money. It's amazing how money is responsible for so many evil, stupid, or ridiculous things.

Yeah and for people under 18.

vurel 05-25-2003 07:40 PM

heh... I first "discovered"* internet porn the summer before i entered 7th grade.... I DL'd quite a bit (quite a bit considering the technology availible to me at the time... about 3 Floppy disks worth using a 33.3 modem) Guess it was kind of a good thing.... I pretty much got bored of porno quite a while before the P2P networks and Cable modems made it so easy to get.... I know a few people who are totally obsessed with porn and it's really sad... instead of pursuing real relationships with people, they surf KaZaA for more and more porn.

* it's ironic how i found out porn could be found on the internet.... it was a newspaper editorial criticizing the availibility of porn on the net.... I read it and thought "wow...cool... there is porn on the internet"

btw, I am 18.m and can honestly say i don't have any porn on my computer

GiMpY-wAnNaBe 05-26-2003 07:07 PM

lol,


My name is Gimpy, and i'm a pornoholic

lol, not really...but i really don't see the problem with it. Some ppl regard it as disgusting and sinful, my advice? don't watch it then, but if your the majority of the male (and sometimes female) population :hump:


:D

Cyrax9 06-04-2003 03:11 AM

OK, to be honest, I actually dont' see a problemw ith INternet porn anymore, it's not going anywhere if my INbox is any indication (Damn SPAMMERS!!!) and as far as I can tell, some kid is gonna seeit smeday anyway, it's not a bad thing, unless it's doen in adisatsteful manner.

I actuyally like Japans laws regarding porn, because they treat nudiy, like nudity and not like some ofrbidden subject, and if aI was given a choice of leting my kids either watcha movie wher you see a guys head fall off and land in a pool of oozing blood, ora porno flick, I'd choose the porno flick.

The reasoN? Porn is a general expression of sex in a bad way (Damn Cnensors) while violance just breeds violance, if I had ot teach my kids about Porn or violance, I'd choose porn, chances are it wouldn't kill anyone unelss they were already a messed up rapist who should eb behind abrs anyway.

As far as the stupid censors go, I fel that porn should be fully uncensored and ther should be an age limit (13?) but the current klimits are the "Ear Shields' form the d@mn censors who butcher everything, porn islame but if you need to get your kicks off of cheap cr@p, go for it, I remerb someone bitching about Video games being a bad thing, adn Rock and Roll, and TV, and just about everything that's come into excistance, I'm not saying tod ownload 4 Gigs of porn, I'm just saging I don't realy think it's as bad as people amkle it out to be and hey, your gonna see it someday, might as well see it any day and get it over with, my point is, it's dirty, yes but so is the language people use these days, and I don't give a d@mn about four-kleter words either, I mean, geez why is our society which claims ot eb "Enlightned' more "Cenbsored" than a commie dictatorship at times?
I'll answer this one, because we're using ear-shields thanks to the "God Christians' who llike dropping nukes on people, y'know what, if it was violance or opnr,I take porn, end of story.

Edit: added for a friend of mine who doens't have a GT Membership:
____________________________________________________
I generally don't look at porn. I read lemons and I like erotic pictures, but that's it. It's still nothing I'd want my kids to see until they were mature enough to know the fact and understand what was going on.

I don't see the harm in all of it if participants are willing. But if they're unwilling, underage, or children.... Gods help those webmasters if I ever find them.
____________________________________________________

OK my buddya dn I basically agree except if I look at porn it's once ina blue moon and as I said not Kids, but teenagers would eb acceptable n my opinion, as far as children go, that's ano, not unless they were either extremely intellgient and had about 5 peopoesign a cnsent form with them, and as for unwilling poeple, that shoudl remain illegal.
