Porn traffics women.

Can you clarify? Do you mean "all" porn traffics women or "some"?

I thought most pornography was made between consenting adults.

This link discusses it more in depth with stats. https://fightthenewdrug.org/by-the-numbers-porn-sex-trafficking-connected/

Thanks. I don't feel that is a strong argument though. After all, we still eat hamburgers even though some cows are mistreated. We still buy clothes from Walmart even though they pay the workers $2 an hour.

I agree with you on the "so cheap it's basically slave labor" clothing, but people have more worth than animals, and the awful treatment of women in pornography is pretty much an industry standard.

There is an awful lot of abuse in the industry, from what I've read.

That's Hollywood and a lot of other things too though. Pornography is just an entertainment industry.

My only problem with pornography is that it seems most children have access to it. Keep it 18+.
