In response to PH1000 ... is being blogged - Week 12

I'm in agreement with Pornography being a huge and mostly overlooked issue. The sheer amount of free and to a lesser extent paid porn sites on the net and their content does require scrutiny. To my mind adults should be able to look at whatever they like as long as it doesn't break any other existing laws of consent. The fact that it is so openly available to children is a different matter. With our desensitised attitude to porn it's easy to forget how distressing and confusing some of the content available could be to minors. The policing of the internet is a non-starter so the responsibility falls on parents to try and shield their kids from inappropriate material. Maybe we should be looking more at the insatiable desire of the public to watch pornography, is it merely a case of human curiosity and libido? or is it symptomatic of a moral sickness in society?
