At the dawn of the new year, Pornhub will leave Florida. Thanks to a harsh new age verification law that takes effect on January 1, the porn giant will no longer do business in the sunshine state. The law mirrors similar laws passed in other Republican led states where Pornhub has stopped doing business.
The smokescreen of supposed enforcement of children’s rights is so thick, that the issue they say they try to address cannot be discussed even among the adult electorate.
Children cannot comprehend pornography, but so are the proponents of sexual control. Our current societies do not have adequate education of sexuality, even or especially for adults.
A theoretical child in a theoretical society, that has no concept of sexuality, a “pure” child so to speak, will be unfit as an adult for a sexually-controlled society, because it will very likely be unable to say no to coercion. Children and adults cannot resist coercive societies without education.
Pornography is a market with low elasticity. States banning markets essentially lose significant control over the exchanges. States already ban coercive pornography (not very good, but idealistically), but allow consensual pornography. Banning pornography altogether mingles coercive pornography with consensual pornography in black markets. Uneducated adults will not understand coercion in black markets of pornography.
Is “coercion pornography” rape or rape play? I assume you mean that once pornography is illegal well get the same results as the war on drugs; things that would generally be innocuous becoming tied to criminal activity.
