Why is pornography still alive and not illegal? Why doesn’t the government do about tricking women into them?

Here’s a neat mental exercise:

When you ban porn, you turn porn production into a criminal enterprise. Criminal enterprises are run by…

…criminals.

Atheists who have read the Bible and think that contains immoral things, why do you assume that?

Making it illegal harms people, especially women.

Finally, “oh wow I want to protect the wimmens all the poor poor wimmens” ah HA ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha no you heckin’ don’t.

There is no legitimate reason to make it illegal.

What if Homelander turned out to be a good guy instead of an evil milk drinking manchild? Nobody seems to touch on this much.

Making it illegal harms people, particularly women.

And what you personally consider icky has even less bearing on what is or is not illegal. You think porn sex is icky? Fine, you do you, bruh.

If you ask anti-porn crusaders why porn should be banned, you will usually get three answers: “My preacher says the invisible god I worship says it’s wrong,” “sex is icky yucky ick ick ick unless it happens between people I say it should happen between, in situations I say it should happen in,” and “lookit all the women who are hurt by porn, I totally care about saving women (but not respecting their autonomy, offering them paid maternity leave, or, you know, doing any of those other things that would materially improve women’s lives).”

Why am I so tired of the keto diet?

The number of women willing to do porn voluntarily is staggeringly high. Like you wouldn’t even believe.

Normal people know that what your particular preachers say has no bearing on what is or is not legal.

Make a list of the countries that most stringently ban porn, with the harshest penalties.

What do you typically do while on meth?

Say by creating an environment where people do the thing voluntarily, et voila.

Make a list of the countries where women are treated as second-class citizens or property.

Compare your lists. Notice anything funny?

There is no legitimate reason to make it illegal.

Criminals who won’t hesitate to traffic people, if it makes them money. The way you solve the problem is to remove the financial incentive to traffic people.

But don’t mistake your personal opinion for Moral Truth or the law of the land. If it were, I’d have eggplants (aubergine for you Brits) banned tomorrow.

Why do people keep complaining about how some people copy and paste the question before answering it? To me, it's very disturbing and makes me want to block and mute them as annoying whiners.

Pornography is still alive and not illegal for two reasons:

What your preacher says isn’t worth a wet fart through used toilet paper. Your preacher might say it’s a sin to eat pork or have sex on Sunday or cut your hair in certain ways or whatever, but that doesn’t make it the law of the land.

That’s not a coincidence.

With so much evidence supporting the flat Earth theory, why aren't more resources dedicated to studying it?

Look, this is simple, so I’ll type slowly: The more open, legitimate, and free porn production is, the fewer women are trafficked. Why on earth would you take the risk of trafficking people to force them to do something plenty of people are willing to do voluntarily?
