Porn, Like Sausages, Ceases To Inspire Respect In Proportion As We Know How It Is Made
"Generally I didn't feel sorry for the women in these pictures, but to tell the truth I didn't really think of them all that much — the naked bodies blurred together." -- "The New Face Of Porn"
"Porn has always existed in one form or another. It always will. What consenting adults do for pleasure is really none of my business unless I'm one of them. Arguments over what is obscene and porn policing are a tremendous waste of time." -- Newsvine
"Say what you will about pornography, objectification and exploitation, the growing legitimization of the pornography industry — which led to much more government- and self-regulation — also led to a significant decrease in the kind of exploitation described by those performers as well as increased opportunities for women to participate in the higher-earning aspects of the production." -- Jezebel
"It is not surprising that pornography is not the most pleasant job. It is not really like having sex. But it does not follow that it is less pleasant for the money than many other jobs we don't object to people taking." -- Huffington Post
"Sure that stuff is pretty pathetic and shocking, but I don't feel a lot of sympathy for the women in it." -- Web of Mimicry
