My analogy is that water is fine until it's used in excess or in the wrong contexts. I dislike your use of "only" trying to restrict the reach of the analogy, though. Everything you described isn't related to porn, it's related to the porn industry. What you're really criticizing here is corporatism, not porn.

- thefurdrake 3y agoI feel like you're trying to make a point here, but it's not coming across.
- NoZebra120vClip 3y agoI'm interested that you're personally able to separate "porn" the product from "the porn industry" (whatever that is; I'm surprised that you think it's some kind of monolithic singular thing). It's weird as if "porn" could move through the world, created by nobody in particular, and distributed by nobody else in particular, and consumed by nobody who matters, not damaging anyone's body, morals, or psyche along the whole supply chain. Baffling. Beggars belief. Are you American? How would you feel about repealing FOSTA-SESTA? I mean, if nobody's getting hurt, why ban slavery?
