Pornography
Jan 17^th, 2009 at 4:22pm

Its all over the net these days. Kids have access to it..everyone does. We cant let our kids surf the net for fear they will come across PORN!!!!

Its in most movies in some form altho' in his medium it is what I would term "soft porn"..its even in Playstation games for Gods sake. We can,if we want download it onto our cell phones and their are kids at my sons school who share porn around this way..so even tho my son doesnt take a phone to school..I cant prevent him from seeing things I deem unsuitable for his age group.

When considering all the sexual assaults on women and children we don't have to look far for reasons .Netstalkers sit online looking at porn and stalking children at the same time. The Northern Territory invasion by the Howard Govt made much of the role Pornography played in the abuse of children.

It seems to have such a negative impact .. and children are increasingly exposed to it even thru mediums that should be safe..ie: games. Why?

Governments are supposed to be regulating this and keeping society safe..its not working.

Thats an interesting finding Beo...and some might say also that it might encourage sexual assaults..

Why would the Lib Govt seek to ban the use of porn in communities for instance..?

If it was taken to the vote most women would have pornography banned outright - but there's a big market in it for males.

Yes Oceanz I'm afraid young boys do share this stuff around. Your son probably wouldn't tell you what he's seen and some of it's pretty nasty and very, very strange.

We are powerless to do anything about it - but the attitude today, particularly of young girls - is blase too. They don't even blink at this stuff because they've seen so much and just take it for granted.

The problem with technology is that people can make big money from child pornography or any pornography for that matter. Whereas years ago it used to be under the counter stuff and well hidden from the average person. Now we all have to deal with it and exploitation is far more common.

I don't find naked women very nasty and very very strange.
Most kids don't see it even though they have access to the Net these days.
If most men weren't interested in it it'd be unnatural and then most men wouldn't be interested in women and that would surely solve the population.
I know women who like it too. And no I didn't corrupt them.

Actually some of the stuff is very strange - helpless girl gets kidnapped by Sumo wrestler, lesbian home invaded by sex starved bandits etc. The titles alone aren't healthy.

I don't think that's right. Of course kids get to see it on the net. Even as Oceanz said they download it to their phones - but it's easy to access and young boys have always been curious and that's an understatement. As if they wouldn't go to porn sites!

Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot about your tender relationship with freedriver.

But you'd be quite surprised at the ages, some of them are very young, some in your age group and a few middle aged, although there is an 81 year old apparently - who has the energy of a teenager. So it's a pretty mixed group here.

Mantra, I'd really appreciate a list of names and their respective ages in chronological order so I can mock people more effectively.

Thanks in advance.

I'm sure you would - but would that be a good idea? At the moment there are only a few who annoy you - but FD & Amadd from what I've guessed aren't that much older than you, but seriously they are nice people and both straight. Easel as she said in an earlier thread is younger than you - so you're not dealing with 60 year old gays here.

You called Easel a "she". Are you saying Easel is transexual? Shocked

I will stick with my generalisation about this forum being full of gay men for a number of reasons:

1) stereotyping is rife and acceptable in here;

2) a person is defined by their actions and reactions in this case, and not by their words; and

3) the men in here are more sensitive than my grandmother ever was, bless her cotton socks,

I have already accommodated for easel's age in the thread where I mentioned the Mattel plane and the copter hat.
