In the news and in some articles, pornography is viewed as a cause of all evil. Sure it may be dirty, kinky, and sometimes even a little offensive towards women but is pornography really the root of all evil?

It is rational to restrict pornography to those that are of age and no matter how you cut it, pornography involving children, animals, and the harm of individuals is just so wrong. Other than that however, I am a loyal supporter of individuals having the freedom to do as they please as long as they do not hard anyone else. In fact, I believe it is good and even essential to society. Here are 5 reasons why:

  1. Porn = money for economy and lots of it! According to estimates, the American porn industry rakes in more than $15 billion dollars a year. In fact, the porn business is known to completely overwhelm the box office in terms of viewership and revenue. For society it means, despite the fact that the majority of the revenue end up in the hands of the distributors, directors, and stars of the films, the money that circulates still contributes to the overall market and that means that it actually helps increase GDP for America.

  2. Porn = jobs. If pornography were to be banned and prohibited, countless people in America would be unemployed. Men and women who star in adult films would suddenly be left with few options on their next choice of a job. What company would be willing to hire a woman who used to be in porn films? Let's face it that some people are best suited to marketing their sexy and muscular bodies rather than anything else and who could blame them?

  3. Pornography minimizes stalking, rape, and underage sex. Imagine crowds of horny people running around the landscape trying to satisfy their sexual desires.

Let's consider the fact that pornography alleviates sexual desires. It allows people to pleasure themselves. If that source of pleasure is no longer available, then people must find other ways to pleasure themselves. This can lead to disaster, and an exponential increase in predatory rape and harassment cases.

  1. Outlet for people who want things their partner can't/won't do. I can imagine anything, and nobody has to do it for me. This is an important aspect that you do not hear very often. Millions of people are faced with this issue and for most of them, adult entertainment is a way to explore new things.

  2. Teaches about sex in a way that public education doesn't.

Pornography for me served an additional benefit. As a gay man, I admit to enjoying adult sites like www.hugegaybodybuilders.com , www.cgaymuscles.com , www.mbvids.com . Some of these sites really helped me find who I was back in the day. I always thought I was straight because I love looking at pretty girls but as I was exploring some of these gay sites helped me figure out that I was not straight.
