Re: How is Porn Harmful

"Strangely at university the women I knew were more into porn than the men."

In the 1970s the UK "man" magazines became apparently totally unrestricted in poses. Many women bought them - ostensibly for their boyfriends. They also liked to compare the models to themselves - especially the models who were not professional. "Mayfair" and even "Penthouse" had pictures of women who had been in the right place at the right time to be scouted for just one appearance.

Women also had "Playgirl". Many of my women friends found it a novelty but not of particular interest to them.
