Down with porn!

Interesting article in The Guardian newspaper today which reflects very much my own distaste with the pornification of our society. Here's the link and I really recommend everyone to read it here:

You can see how I integrate my views about the topic in Chapter 6 - The trouble with Franz under Good Stuff on the right.

  1. Similar idea behind the NYT article which I find equally appropriate:

  2. Thank you for this. An excellent article. The focus always in research seems to be on the damage that the over availability of pornographic images does to children and although I agree that is dangerous, I think the damage it does to everybody is not really recognised. Sexual imagery is a bit like sugar and salt in food; our brains tell us to consume as much of it as possible and we don't know when to stop.
