Banning it will just force it all underground. Remember that the sex industry is the single oldest industry in human history. A fancy new law won't make it go away, it will just turn it all into a black market with no rules. And if the government were to regulate it all the sex slaves involved wouldn't be an issue, but even our liberal politicians are afraid to even mention porno.
Pornography, should it be banned?

- Pornography completely objectifies women
well yes and no. if your straight occurs there is going to be women in the act
- Many sex slaves in the world are linked to pornography
really, ok even though you will il legalized porn, theres going to be a black market
- 98% of female performers in pornography are unhappy (Apparently from a real study according to him)
maybe that is kinda true, but you will get tired doing the same things over and over,(even eating your favorite food everyday, it will eventually get tired)
- If pornography was banned, it would mean a drop in human trafficking (again, an opinion I think completely the opposite to)
many criminals that do human traffic are for prostitution (having sex for money, with any guy)

that comment kind of bothers me for some reason,Altorin said:
I dont think somone should feel bad about not being comfortable with certian things, I don't know what goes on in porn but I dont think anyoen should be "expected" to like certain things...
Considering that 90% of men have already been practicing masturbation, often chronically, since the age of 15, I imagine any attempt to outright ban pornography would be remarkably unsuccessful.
Incidentally, assuming most porn-actresses are unhappy in their careers (which they aren't), why don't we give the same care for all the wage-slaves in their miserable occupations.
This reeks of moral panic. If people cared just this much about the plight of the worker around the world, I suppose I wouldn't be so defensive. But people only give a shit if it somehow involves Johnny-Long-Dick.

A. So does most of the media. Therefore I think we should ban the news.DrScoobs said:
2. This is a true, but just like most media you need to be mature enough to view/play it.
C. 98 percent of my coworkers are unhappy with their jobs. Lets get rid of restaurants. Honestly, I think I know 5 people total who are happy with their job. Those people are older and have established themselves in a career. Also, why just females? Porn isn't a walk in the park for males either. At least women make 3-5 times more money. By the way, ask for a source on that. That number seems way too high.
D. What is the reasoning for that? Also, what constitutes a "sexual crime"? Rape? Bad touch? Me staring at someone's cleavage?
E. We should also ban sharp things, electricity, and stove tops so children don't get into those by accident.
F. Here's the thing with human trafficking: it is illegal already. People are still going to do it if a medium becomes illegal. (also I seemed to have skipped the third point you listed. This addresses that one too.)
I made the comment hastily but I didn't quite mean that. All I mean is, it doesn't HAVE to set unreasonable expectations. The argument of "unreasonable expectations" usually comes with the idea that women don't like doing certain things and we should feel bad for wanting them. I just think that argument is bullshit. That's really what I meant, and you might still disagree, but that's a little clarification. Of course someone shouldn't feel like they HAVE to do something, and if someone incorrectly expects you to, I completely think you should tell them to get stuffed. I just don't think "unreasonable expectations" is a very good argument against pornographyVault101 said:
It's also because some things look better on camera than they are in real life, female orgasms aren't as easy to produce in real life as they are in porn, and porn stars tend to be unusually attractive/have done things to themselves to make them more photogenic that not everyone has done in real life (completely shaving body hair, circumcision, etc.) There's a famous quote from some porn director or another: "I'm not paying you to enjoy yourselves, I'm paying you to look like you're enjoying yourselves." It kind of says it all.Altorin said:
However, I still don't see how this is a bad thing; romantic comedies provide much more unrealistic expectations about relationships than porn does about sex, yet you don't see anyone pushing for them to be banned -- despite being pretty much the entire reason for the confusion over "the friend zone."
All the pornography sites should be replaced with sites about Jesus. I guess it would be acceptable if they were about Buddha or Mohammed or one of the other ones if the nation that hosts the ISP is in to that.
Also we should use science for a godly purpose like eradicating the orgasm.

If we're going to ban porn, we might as well ban every other form of entertainment that depicts something that someone, somewhere, might possibly find objectionable maybe.
Banning anything is stupid. All it does is force it into underground, unregulated, and unsafe conditions. It didn't work for alcohol prohibition, it hasn't worked for drugs or prostitution, and it wouldn't work for pornography. The best way to make people want something is to say they can't have it.
