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

Making it illegal harms people, particularly women.

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

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.

What movies have not aged well?

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

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).”

That’s not a coincidence.

Why can't my adopted sister accept she is not part of my family because she isn't related? Why can't she stop calling my parents mum and dad?

If Delta Force soldiers wanted to form a criminal gang, how dangerous would they be with all their equipment (explosives, rifles, vests, night vision goggles)?

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?

There is no legitimate reason to make it illegal.

Here’s a neat mental exercise:

CVS closing 271 stores, including 3 locations in Upstate NY - Syracuse.com

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

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

…criminals.

2025 Final X Match Order Released - FloWrestling

There is no legitimate reason to make it illegal.

Compare your lists. Notice anything funny?

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.

Do foreign workers face discrimination in Canada?

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.

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.

Pornography is still alive and not illegal for two reasons:

What type of fish is best for fish tacos?

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