Merged Does 'rape culture' accurately describe (many) societies?

[Joe Random]

No sex kiosk is alluded to. As things stand, the poll title is not mine but an edit. It is misleading and divorced from the poll OP (which is effectively hidden). I am hoping that this will be corrected soon.

Based on the votes here - this imaginary scenario is approved by 9 votes 1. The imaginary scenario of said establishment being shut down, based on the votes here, is not occurring.

As a poster alluded to - a place where youngsters can go to get porn isn't that far from some such folk's experience.

And the question that seems to get ignored so often in so many other threads : "so therefore ... " ?

You have an answer from the specific collective you asked. I'm guessing it's not the one you wanted, since it takes a 'gotcha' bullet out of your imagined rhetorical gun, but yet you still have one.

Now what?

I, um. Would be more upset by kiosks that showed, for example, Porky's or Sixteen Candles, than just plain happy vanilla porn TBH. Like, they are comedies and not instruction manuals the same way porn is porn and not an instruction manual, but they are gross in the same way gross porn is gross.

So you're against high-grossing movies?

 

[Poem]

I think you're wrong. I think you can't show anything of worth for any purpose, from having this knowledge in your head. Not least because you're not actually getting people's views.

Come again?

That the poll be made visible again and continues to garner votes would be good. The poll speaks for itself.

Exactly what is says: most say it (they) should stay open.

Sure but needs more votes. There will be many parents not happy that their little soldier goes.

Anyway, have we seen your best argument for banning porn, yet? Or do you plan on having another go?
