Study: Pr0n Is Good for You
"Pornography is actually good for you in many ways," says Dr. Alan McKee, principal investigator of a research group in Australia, whose government-funded study ("Understanding Pornography in Australia") surveyed viewers of porn on the Internet. The Register quotes McKee, referring to a report on news.com.au whose link has evidently expired.
The Register also quotes Clive Hamilton, executive director of something called the Australia Institute and author of draft legislation to force ISPs to filter pornography to prevent any access by minors: "No man who regularly uses pornography can have a healthy sexual relationship with a woman." That's a rather broad blanket of a statement, don't you think?

Posted by abostick at September 14, 2004 11:54 AMWhat about women who regularly use porn? Can we have a healthy relationship with another woman? How about with a man?
Posted by: Lynn Kendall at September 14, 2004 01:11 PMDon't you agree that any woman whose sexuality consists of anything other than lying back and thinking of the flag while her husband does his marital duty to her is by definition incapable of having an unhealthy relationship with anyone?
