This is not a suggestion to take away the creative freedom of filmmakers. This is a call to action for both creators and consumers. As artists or creators, we have the power to expose the world to concepts they aren't fully educated on. The power of media is universal and whether we admit it or not, even the oldest of people are impressionable. It is part of human nature to be able to be influenced by things blindly. So if one is going to use someone's experience in their film, make sure you're…
not necessarily persons? How well does she argue for this claim? Pornography is a complex topic. Anti-pornography feminists claimed that pornography may cause serious problems such as gender inequality, thus opposed its existence. Whilst other feminists may disagree with those claims from disagreeing with one specific argument to claiming the benefit of pornography (Saul, 2003). Historically, women are excluded from the pornography consumer sitting. However, some people began to notice the…
The term ‘sexualisation of culture’ is becoming very popular and it refers to the modern idea that Western societies have become all about sex and what represents sex. Modern culture has fallen under the influence of sex discourses and pornography . This culture is reinforcing gender inequalities as it makes women be seen as promiscuous and that they don't mind being a sexual object, while also increasing the belief that men always think about sex and are perverts (Coy, 2009). When remembering…

Today in our society, it is not an overstatement when people say news travels fast. Within seconds of a significant or unusual event happening, we get “Breaking News” headlines all over our TV screens, millions of tweets commenting on what had happened, and the sharing of stories or pictures through Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat. However, have you ever noticed that most of the news we see or read from online consists of obscene events? Obscenity comes in many different forms. It can be from…
If the pornographer had possessed more time, he'd have happily suppressed his burning need to sink his meat into the teenager's tight, dripping cunt, and allowed the teenager to assume greater control. As much as the audience would enjoy watching Sophie treated as a fucktoy, good for nothing but having her holes stuffed with cock, they'd gain voyeuristic gratification from witnessing her independently tease, and urge men on. The dichotomy, in their minds, would provide further confirmation of…
Lately I’ve been hearing a lot of buzz about how there has been a bit of controversy about an art students painting and whether or not it should be displayed at the art exhibition here on campus. It has been brought to my attention that in the painting the artist depicted herself as a sailor seducing her boyfriend who was depicted as a siren. Some people feel like the painting is pornographic while others believe that it is simply artistic. But is it really a big deal? A question that I’m pretty…
and Unspeakable Acts ” argues that pornography silences women. This is similar to Katherine MacKinnon’s thesis and throughout the rest of her article, Langton labels pornography as a speech act, or an utterance, which has illocutionary effects that support MacKinnon’s claims of: 1) pornography subordinating women and 2) pornography silencing women. Langton introduces the terms locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary to explain the effects of pornography. To explain how women are…

There are things in this world that exist only to allow one to attain power. To rise above adversaries, one must eliminate all that stands in the way. Murder, destruction, and slavery, all subsist to serve that purpose. In our lives today, and many centuries past, there has been one other despicable sin that has too frequently been overlooked: The banning of books. Many think that banning a book and censoring a book are the same thing. However, that is not the case. According to the American…
