We probably differ in assessment of social effects of porn. I don't find it very harmful at all. In the balance porn may be even beneficial if it helps to remove harmful taboos and hangups about sexuality.

In fact I find it totally absurd how depictions of horrible violence is quite OK for people who are shocked about genitals. Or profanity.

And I find that advertising in general, especially for children but also for adults, is more harmful than even the violence.

We probably disagree. I think my opinions are quite well founded, but so do probably you.
