    There is most definitely some really dark porn out there, and I would like that kind of crap to be unavailable everywhere because it is exploitative (at best). However, not all porn is like that. I was raised in a hyper-religious family and seeing a naked person was taboo, so the first time I saw porn—which, thankfully, was not of the darker varieties—was actually an eye-opening experience and it gave me a healthier opinion about sex and human bodies in general.

    That is to say, I don’t think it is all bad and I wouldn’t go so far as to say that the entire industry should be abolished. If it wasn’t frowned upon so heavily by a large majority of mostly religious nutjobs, it would be easier to regulate, because currently it is mostly relegated to shadowy corners of the market.
