Were anti-porn feminists right? Study shows porn hurts young women and girls?We Answered:
The APA article begins: "A report of the American Psychological Association (APA) released today found evidence that the proliferation of sexualized images of girls and young women in advertising, merchandising, and media is harmful to girls’ self-image and healthy development."I agree with the APA. However, there's a problem with your assertion about the article itself - no where does the author single out the effects of porn. I don't even see porn mentioned. I bring this up because a huge part of the problem is definition - what is 'porn', exactly? The answer is that this depends upon the perceiver: 'porn' is a subjective value judgement. The bottom line really is that 'porn' in the eye of the beholder. Can art be pornographic? Can pornography be art? Who is to judge?
Personally, I'm not at all a fan of 'porn'; but by the same token I staunchly defend an artist's right to freedom of expression. Many years ago there was an exhibition of photography by the controversial American photographer Robert Mapplethorpe. The American media went on a FEEDING FRENZY. In time, the exhibition moved from America to Vienna, Austria, where I had occassion to see it. Personally, I did NOT find Mapplethorpe's work pornographic. Indeed, the response to his work in Europe was radically (and refreshingly) different. Of course this difference in perception is rooted in culture.
Back to MY question about your question: who is to judge what is - or isn't - 'porn'?
