responds:
Trash? WHY is
a beautiful naked body TRASH?
Stereotyping
Pornography
I think the reason
that so many people find pornography objectionable is because
of the overall stereotype that is has.
Porn
Is the Depiction of a Naked Person
Pornography is
just a picture of a naked person. Think about it in its
most simple terms. There is nothing trashy or wrong about
being naked.
And if a woman
or man feels confident enough about their own self image
to share it with the world, then more power to them!
What
Society Has Been Taught
Our society has
been taught from way back when that the body is not something
to enjoy, revere or honor. Sex can be cheap, sex can be
dirty and therefore it must mean that enjoying looking at
a naked person is dirty also.
Clothing
or Nudity
If you can look
at a man or woman fully dressed and appreciate what you
see, where is the difference if you are looking at a magazine
or a picture and the same person is nude? If they feel comfortable
enough to share their body, who are we to say it's bad or
wrong?
Admiring
the Physical
If can you honestly
say that you have NEVER looked at a member of the opposite
sex, dressed or not, and not thought about their body or
how good they looked...then sure, I can understand having
a problem with this. But at some time, most of us have admired
someone else physically. Whether they were wearing a bathing
suit, a formal outfit, jeans, or nothing, it shouldn't matter.
The point is that the human body can be beautiful - and
there is nothing wrong with enjoying it or believing in
that.
