Pornography is broadly defined as “any form of explicit representation of the human body or sexual activity with the goal of sexual arousal and/or sexual relief.” It takes form in all sorts of media, including movies, magazines, literature, and artistic representations. The issue of pornography acceptance in society is somewhat based on personal opinion. But whether individuals consider it moral deterioration, entertaining, disgusting, appropriate or inappropriate, pornography has grown into an outsized industry by taking shape in almost every form of media with unlimited availability and a plethora of observers. It has, and continues, to survive pressure from society and censorship.

First of all, this post is not a persuading post nor it is a post to praise pornography, to accept it in our life. This is a post to debunk the myth that has been surrounding the issue of pornography for a long time.

First claim is that pornography leads to an increase in sex crimes. Rape, pedophilia, divorce, and sex crimes in general have decreased radically since pornography is widely available over the internet. Crimes against women have decreased as well. The reason for this correlation, many believe, is because pornography serves as a means to release sexual urges by giving the sexually frustrated people a risk-free outlet to ease their sexual tension.

Nonetheless, if pornography were as powerful and important in sex crimes, it would be expected, particularly since its wide availability over the internet, to lead to less promising figures. That there is a link between viewing pornography and becoming a sexual offender is not yet proven.

Next claim is that pornography exploits and degrades women. This is one of the most frequent arguments from the feminist movements. For this claim to have any weight, those who make it must ignore the fact that the porn industry is one of the few industries in which women make drastically more money than men.  I think it would also be fitting to mention that rational thinking calls for the blunt realization that pornographic performers are not forced into their profession, and they can quit at any time they want and no one is stopping them.  Because pornography is recognized as an entertainment industry, it often times serves as an opportunistic and satisfying career.

Therefore, pornography benefits society. Pornography plays a strong part in cultural exchange. Aside from cultural exchange of sexual norms, probably the best and most significant part of pornography is its function as a form of expression. Pornography expresses human sexuality and represents a side of the human mind that Freud believed influences our daily lives and that society otherwise ignores and declares obscene in normal settings. That, of course, is sexual desire.

So, because all individuals have the instant and normal capacity for sex for the purpose of physical contentment, pornography reaches so many people. Community norms and morals are what serve as obstacles to the expression of pornography, as going against these norms constitutes a sexual taboo.
