It has never been, "Has porn been the cause of violence, particularly against women?" but rather "Are the people who treat women violently more likely to watch porn that those that don't?" I don't think it's a stretch to see the latter is probably true; however, there's no part of that question that argues availability of porn causes the violent behavior. <br /><br />In some, perhaps, it leavens it as you have postulated, but I would hardly call it a scientific conclusion either. Truth is, there's been very little conclusive <em>causative</em> link between media (violent or sexual) to behavior. And the relative openness of sexual media in other countries that have a tiny fraction of our violent crime rate argues that it, at worst, does nothing to contribute to it.Stephanie Barrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17772217449161603561noreply@blogger.com
