I will often ask: Within a few, what year would you rather have been: Black, female, gay, Hispanic, non-English-speaking, developmentally challenged, physically challenged, Jewish, Muslim, sick with a serious illness, an addict--I'm sure I'm fine getting a few lenses I've used--in America or any other OECD country than today?Yeah, you need to be a bit more direct when it comes to me... Sorry
But I agree that a woman doesn't owe her gender her freedom of choice.
Besides, not all women agree that Porn is harmful to all women. Why? Because Porn is more ubiquitous than ever, thanks to the internet, AND at the same time, we have more women graduating from college than men, more women CEO's than ever, the gender pay gap at it's narrowest AND society and our legal system hearing women and dealing more harshly with douchebags like Harvey Weinstein, Jeffrey Epstein, Bill Cosby, and Sean Diddy, etc.
Are women treated equally in our society? Nope.. far from it. But the gap is smaller than it's ever been, and it's happening at a time when porn is more widely viewed than ever - including by 35% of women (who admit to it - which means it's probably vastly underreported). ...So, my leftist and woke leanings notwithstanding, I don't think Porn is harming all women.
Does Porn harm the women in the Porn industry? Well, I still don't think it necessarily does, but even if it did ...that is their choice. Again, no different than a guy who choses MMA or Boxing as a career despite the repeated concussions and the subsequent early cognitive decline he'll very likely experience.
This isn't Western Chauv, it's Western Civ, the only civilization that is, or ever has been, self-critiquing.
