Pros and Cons of Porn

Pros

  • Entertainment; not everyone will be able to have sex when they want to, so porn provides a private and safe alternative
  • Provides jobs

Cons

  • Sets unrealistic standards and warps perception of sex
  • Reinforces negative stereotypes (gender and sexuality)
  • Mistreatment of workers; general misogyny and I heard that sometimes male porn actors will be shamed if they cannot get aroused quick enough for the video.
