Searching For Celebrity Nudes Puts Your Data At RISK! I'm not sure if celebrity nudes qualifies as porn, but it's in the ballpark. Most people are aware of sites that are potentially dangerous, but his news clip provides some good tips for staying safe!
Revenge Porn A Crime? More dumb laws that are difficult to enforce. Why waste taxpayer money on something like this? First of all, you have to prove WHY someone posted the pix as well as WHO actually posted them. In other words some guy might share some of the pix with his friends. That's not covered by the law. Then one of his friends could post the pix. Still the law doesn't cover this either. The law is relevant only if the pix are posted in order to harass or defame. Enforcing a law like this is a total and complete waste of time and resources!
Kendall Jenner 'Nude' Photo - Is 18 Too Young? Like Anna says, "It's a non-story." The images in question are far from being pornography, but they are partial nudes. As such, even under 18 isn't too young. The age of consent should be lowered to 16 and anyone 16 or older should be allowed to pose for pornographic photos or appear in pornographic videos. As for nudes there should be no age restrictions providing that the photos are not pornographic. Americans need to get over this schizophrenic obsession with nudity. On the one hand a large percentage of Americans view nudity as bad, but on the other hand there seems to be a lot of interest in nudity which generates a lot of money. Perhaps the strategy is to create scarcity (discourage people from appearing in the nude in photos, videos, and in public) so that people will pay to see it in movies and on TV. More free nudity would reduce the obsession over nudity. (It's kind of like the way that drinking water cures dehydration. What a concept!)
Do You Watch Porn? You Might Get Billed For Copyright Fees Copyright trolls at it again, trying to extort money out of people based on legally flimsy premises! People cave and pay up though in order to avoid the embarrassment and expense of having to defend themselves in court. Anna and Cenk deliver a few slightly funny lines including: "You can't judge a book by its cover or a porn by its title." The porn site in question is called Redtube and it's located in Germany, FYI.
Sexy Fired Teacher Reverses Position On Nudity She was teaching freshman English and now she's in Hustler Magazine! Just think of all those freshman boys who missed out. Just imagine how eager they would have been to please her. Too bad the prudish administrators made a big deal out of a few modeling pics. Anna Kasparian offers some good ideas about what she would do if she were "president of the world" at the end of this clip, BTW.
Should Revenge Porn Be Illegal? This should not be a criminal matter. Deal with it in civil court. A lawsuit can settle this kind of thing, but why have a stupid law that could easily be abused? This kind of case would be difficult to prove and it creates what could be called a thought crime. We as a society need to stay away from that kind of law.
Watch Porn? Masturbate? Get A Grip! Say Mormons In Hilarious Video This video is a little long, but it is SOOOO funny! Like they say, the war on porn has even less chance of being successful than the war on drugs, but some obsessed individuals just can't help themselves!
Taste for Chaste: Sexless trend in Japan spurs demographic tragedy It's not because they have been influenced by some religious anti-sex trend. It's simply because they aren't interested. This seems to go against basic human instinct, but apparently the flame of passion has been extinguished! At first you might think, so what, but then you've got to consider the demographic/economic problems that will result.
shadylady: It's hard to imagine a society where people stopped having kids. A lot of people would be out of jobs if that happened! Toy manufacturers, baby-sitters, teachers, child safety seat makers, etc. would all be out of luck! The economic effects would be devastating! Wonder what happens in Japan if this problem lasts for more than a couple years?
