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

That’s not a coincidence.

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

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

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.

Making it illegal harms people, especially women.

Here’s a neat mental exercise:

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

…criminals.

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.

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).”

There is no legitimate reason to make it illegal.
