Do you think it's wrong to masturbate to porn? I did it when I was young. I still do it sometimes. Sometimes I'll look at it sometimes I won't. I think a lot of guys do, and they don't all go out abusing women and treating women like objects. I think the treatment of people like objects or abuse of people goes beyond porn.
I think the issue's here are:
Money, abuse, and the fact that we have a load of entertainment and communications mediums that ironically seperate real people from each other.Regarding prostitution: all of those horrible things probably wouldn't happen if it were legal and controlled. ( the money dillema aside - working for cash may make people who do sexwork feel used. )
It's almost like drug dealing ( even the not so bad drugs ). It's trouble not because of the drugs, but because of how underground everything is. Since it's illegal all sorts of bad things happen that wouldn't happen if it were controlled and legal.
