PORNOGRAPHY

Pornography is a social problem and is a commodity brought into existence by 
certain characteristics of a highly developed civilization. The problem with 
Pornography is that any form of censorship or suppression cannot solve it. These 
Aggressive methods would merely aggravate the disease and create other deplorable
consequences. Prevention is better than cure, and by diagnosing the psychological motives
of those who consume pornography, we may be able to change the instincts involved
(McCune, 1985). In pornography a visual or verbal image acts as a direct stimulus to the
erotic drives or impulses, which are always latent and ready to be stimulated in normal
people (McCune 1985: 13). Television perhaps more than any other medium, is the average
persons first glimpse at pornography. It invades your home through regular programming,
cable and videos. A large part of this pornographic blitz pairs sexual pleasure with
violence and develops the concept that women are expendable (McCune,1985, 18). There are
countless plots on television dealing with rape, murder,
kidnapping, and beatings. All of this done to the leading man's wife or girlfriend and
has become the rule. Similarly, pornography in movies has become common entertainment.
These movies leave little to the imagination and exhibit the most violent scenes of
bondage, rape, and mutilation. The ultimate being the so-called snuff films where the
victim is killed at the culmination of the abusers sexual release. Your telephone has
also become a vehicle for pornography through the infamous 900 numbers. Business was so
good for these pay per call services in 1991 that sales reached a record $975 million.
Dial-a-Porn has flourished as teens and children joined adults on instant phone sex.
