Why is pornography still alive and not illegal? Why doesn’t the government do about tricking women into them?

But don’t mistake your personal opinion for Moral Truth or the law of the land. If it were, I’d have eggplants (aubergine for you Brits) banned tomorrow.

If you ask anti-porn crusaders why porn should be banned, you will usually get three answers: “My preacher says the invisible god I worship says it’s wrong,” “sex is icky yucky ick ick ick unless it happens between people I say it should happen between, in situations I say it should happen in,” and “lookit all the women who are hurt by porn, I totally care about saving women (but not respecting their autonomy, offering them paid maternity leave, or, you know, doing any of those other things that would materially improve women’s lives).”

Making it illegal harms people, particularly women.

What is the story behind bhai dooj?

Look, this is simple, so I’ll type slowly: The more open, legitimate, and free porn production is, the fewer women are trafficked. Why on earth would you take the risk of trafficking people to force them to do something plenty of people are willing to do voluntarily?

Say by creating an environment where people do the thing voluntarily, et voila.

The number of women willing to do porn voluntarily is staggeringly high. Like you wouldn’t even believe.

Why has no country adopted the SA80/L85 rifle?

That’s not a coincidence.

Make a list of the countries that most stringently ban porn, with the harshest penalties.

Pornography is still alive and not illegal for two reasons:

Should transgender Ideology be renamed "Gender Revisionism/Biological Denialism"?

Criminals who won’t hesitate to traffic people, if it makes them money. The way you solve the problem is to remove the financial incentive to traffic people.

Compare your lists. Notice anything funny?

There is no legitimate reason to make it illegal.

Do you like wearing short skirts?

There is no legitimate reason to make it illegal.

Making it illegal harms people, especially women.

Make a list of the countries where women are treated as second-class citizens or property.

Why cant school buses ditch kids who are late to the bus at the school? Like on the way home, if a kid is late when all the others arrived to the bus on time, why cant they leave the late kid behind since its not fair to the on time kids to wait?

Finally, “oh wow I want to protect the wimmens all the poor poor wimmens” ah HA ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha no you heckin’ don’t.

When you ban porn, you turn porn production into a criminal enterprise. Criminal enterprises are run by…

What your preacher says isn’t worth a wet fart through used toilet paper. Your preacher might say it’s a sin to eat pork or have sex on Sunday or cut your hair in certain ways or whatever, but that doesn’t make it the law of the land.

What story do you have involving a public restroom?

Normal people know that what your particular preachers say has no bearing on what is or is not legal.

…criminals.

And what you personally consider icky has even less bearing on what is or is not illegal. You think porn sex is icky? Fine, you do you, bruh.

I'm a 28-year-old guy who has never been in a relationship, nor can I seem to find someone who wants to be in one with me. Why do I feel like a freak?

Here’s a neat mental exercise:
