The issue has nothing to do with what two consenting adults are doing.  The issue is how pornography affects society's perception of women.  If pornography promotes violence against women (something some people claim and have studies to support), then what those two consenting adults do on film very much affects ALL women.

There is sense in what you are talking about. But there is also much porn which promotes violence against men (some men like this). Does it affect society's perception of men? Is it good or bad?

I'm not making a judgment one way or another.  I just wanted to correct bitcoin2moron's inability to understand externalities and consequences of actions.

Personally, I'm of the belief that some porn does promote violence and/or a degrading outlook on women.  However, that's only SOME porn.  Definitely not all porn.  It's something that needs to be taken on a case by case basis.

Enjoying the dose of reality or getting a laugh out of my posts? Feel free to toss me a penny or two, everyone else seems to be doing it! 1Kn8NqvbCC83zpvBsKMtu4sjso5PjrQEu1

Bitcoin having things like "bitcoin porn" is not going to make it look better in the eyes of the general public.

Are you referring to posts here on this forum?  There no longer is an "official" forum for Bitcoin.  For now, links to the old domain still forward to their equivalents on this forum, but new posts and replies no longer get indexed from a bitcoin.org  domain.

There are other forums with different communities:
 - http://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Forums

There likely will soon be a beta forum on Stack Exchange, as 94% of the needed "committments" have been reached:
 - http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/30763/bitcoin-crypto-currency

It doesn't matter what third parties think about interactions between two consenting adults.

Cliffs:  Ironically, the capitalism worshiping libertard crowd knows nothing about business.

In a world without regulation, I bet the already established companies would buy everything out, destroy everything, while the libertard crowd keeps yelling for litigation, government action, and legal action against them.
Personally, I think bitcoin is already dead. 

Don't be silly AyeYo Bitcoin is far from dead...

But women also watch porn. Why would they watch something that's degrading to them?

Because in reality porn is degrading to men and some women like it. You can see in the movies how women use the men to obtain sex and use them as sexual objects without worrying for their emotional needs. Its discusting how some women can do that to a man.

If I'm going to be insulted then you can damn well be sure that I'll give you the same treatment. Can't take it? Don't dish it out.

Quote from: JeffK
Things like 'common sense' and 'facts' mean little in any argument with posters like bitcoin2cash or Immanuel, so there is little to do besides try to get a rise out of them for shits and giggles.

Get over it, whining hypocrite.

not everyone finds it offensive, you shouldnt lay your hang ups on other people.   

personally, i find anti abortion rallies offensive, but i dont feel the need to berate the people who choose to participate in them...

 in my country, porn is protected by free speech, as it should be....my suggestion is to get over it and live your own life instead of worrying about other peoples lifestyles.

But how would porn advance the bitcoin cause?


porn often leads technology (remember hd-dvd vs blu-ray?)

I wonder how someone who doesn't watch porn can say that "pornography is degrading to women" ...how can he even "know" that?

It sure as shit does when it potentially increases rape and battery rates, affects workplace treatment, general social treatment, societal perception, etc.

But women also watch porn. Why would they watch something that's degrading to them?


Because "women" are a diverse group that do not all share the same opinions on everything, believe it or not.  Some like it, others do not.  Some like certain porn while they dislike other types of porn.  The world is not black and white, try hard to understand that.

If you think it's degrading perhaps you need to take a closer look at yourself, you are not the judge of what's right, wrong, and what's degrading. In fact I think porn should be encouraged, I think it makes them look more majestic and pure, so by that reasoning we should promote 'whorism' and make more porn!.... from your seat it must be a good thing that im not in charge of the world, just like im glad ignorant people like you aren't either.
