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

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

Compare your lists. Notice anything funny?

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:

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.

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.

Is it true that Jehovah's witnesses once thought the world would end in 1975?

There is no legitimate reason to make it illegal.

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

There is no legitimate reason to make it illegal.

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.

Here’s a neat mental exercise:

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

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.

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

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

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).”

…criminals.

Making it illegal harms people, especially women.

Making it illegal harms people, particularly women.

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

That’s not a coincidence.

Why do the Republican city officials at Springfield Ohio continue to deny that immigrants are eating pets to sabotage the Trump campaign, even though immigrant pet-eating is now widely believed to be true?

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?
