Pornography

Paper Summary:

This paper considers the topic of pornography and examines how from its inception, it is a media that links sexual gratification and violence together. It evaluates how this fact can only lead a rational mind to the conclusion that a chain of events will begin, combining sex and violence further in the minds of those who watch pornography and will ensure an unhealthy attitude towards women and their sexual identities. It discusses how pornography has left a trail strewn behind it of twisted expectations and how it has exploited women and children. It also shows how because the pornography industry is knitted together with illicit and unsafe sexual practices, it has also left a legacy of sexually transmitted diseases.

From the Paper:

"When the innocence of childhood is mixed into the surrealistic world of pornography, not only is the dehumanizing of the child taking place, but the children are exploited by the very ones who should be protecting, educating, and providing positive role models. Child pornography also is interwoven across the world with child prostitution. Child prostitution and the sexual trafficking of children is humanities greatest crime. Every part of the world is affected by child prostitution. The amount of children becoming involved in the child sex trade is increasing at an alarming large amount. The age which the children are joining the sex trade is decreasing quickly. The profit potential in the life of a child prostitution is huge. So is the risk of disease and death."
