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

There is no legitimate reason to make it illegal.

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.

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.

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

Making it illegal harms people, particularly women.

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).”

What are the different celebrity lists (A-list, B-list, C-list, D-list)? How does one become a part of these lists and move up or down in status?

There is no legitimate reason to make it illegal.

…criminals.

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

My parents force me (15yo atheist) to go to church, and there’s this thing called Small Sundays where we discuss the Bible in groups, there are questions asked about the Bible. What am I supposed to do when they ask?

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?

Here’s a neat mental exercise:

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

Have you ever had your crush reject you, and then later you all dated and married?

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:

Making it illegal harms people, especially women.

According to Trump, Ukraine started the war. Why?

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