I do. I have seen excerpts. I have read descriptions of them and I have read the statistical analysis of the number of punches, kicks and slaps delivered to the women in these films as well as the number of times they are called by derogatory and slang terms for their physical anatomy. I know that the great majority of these films depict women's faces obliterated by massive amounts of sperm in the "money shot" and that multiple and anal penetration is normalized in the largest segment of the industry, called "Gonzo".
How can this NOT be considered obscene under the supreme court 1973 decision abbreviated below:
obscene material legal definition
The U.S. Supreme Court set up a test for obscenity in its 1973 decision Miller v. California. The Court provided three “basic guidelines”:
- “Whether the average person, applying contemporary community standards, would find that the work, taken as a whole, appeals to the prurient interest.
- “Whether the work depicts or describes, in a patently offensive way, sexual conduct specifically defined by the applicable state law.
- “Whether the work, taken as whole, lacks serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value.”
These different guidelines are sometimes called the prurient-interest, patently offensive and serious-value prongs of the Miller test.
It's past due for another look at what pornography is today. You blinked and it got UGLY real fast. This ain't your daddy's Playboy. This is a multi billion dollar industry profiting off the humiliation and degradation of women. If you are trying to raise children today you know exactly what I'm talking about.
PORN HARMS EVERYONE

ReplyDeleteWhy would you delete and not defend? Ignorance is the problem. I for one do not subscribe, purchase, or view pornography. I have no problem with it. I explained my reason why I have no problem, because of the in ability to control it. You can't. No more than prohibition controlled alcohol. So, if you can't control something then what is the next step? Education, Mary. If people understand what their most basic desires are that drive them to the abuses they commit to others and themselves, then people can recognize their actions for what they really are. I wish you had defended had you not agreed. I don't believe I was obscene (I did use the word sperm, sorry). Please, why did you delete and not defend?
