I'm so glad to read this!! The adendum has me snorking in incredulity. What people come up with to complain about absolutely astounds me. How DARE the government expect parents to parent their children! o.O Whaaaa?? And yeah... those kids, they can get into porn outside the house! How will we protect them? Me wonders what happens when the kid turns 18? Do parents think that preventing kids from accessing content for 18 years will really continue once that age limit's no longer in place? I see that with so many things.... and I think it's such a BAD approach to parenting. Ugh. WOO HOO!!! I’m so glad to read this!!

I'm not with you on this Heather. I do want such laws, but not being American, I don't know how good this law was or wasn't. Pornography is not what it has been defined as on Scarleteen, I think this is pornography, and I want it stopped. Period. I just don't think it's "whatever you think it is". I think it's institutionalized prostitution, and prostitution is harmful to women. It's the "abuse or degradtion" part that separates pornography from what you do here. It' s not a mutable definition. :) " Pornography - Definition Pornography today is a multi-million dollar industry that is growing exponentially through the web. Sociologist Diana Russell defines pornography as "material that combines sex and/or the exposure of genitals with abuse or degradation in a manner that appears to endorse, condone, or encourage such behavior." The word, pornography, is drawn from the Greek words porne (female captive, slave or prostitute) and graphos (writing or drawing).

” Pornography - Definition

Pornography today is a multi-million dollar industry that is growing exponentially through the web. Sociologist Diana Russell defines pornography as “material that combines sex and/or the exposure of genitals with abuse or degradation in a manner that appears to endorse, condone, or encourage such behavior.” The word, pornography, is drawn from the Greek words porne (female captive, slave or prostitute) and graphos (writing or drawing). Thus the etymology of the word links graphic portrayal of women with bondage and inequality with men. “
