Why is pornography still alive and not illegal? Why doesn’t the government do about tricking women into them?

What your preacher says isn’t worth a wet fart through used toilet paper. Your preacher might say it’s a sin to eat pork or have sex on Sunday or cut your hair in certain ways or whatever, but that doesn’t make it the law of the land.

Say by creating an environment where people do the thing voluntarily, et voila.

And what you personally consider icky has even less bearing on what is or is not illegal. You think porn sex is icky? Fine, you do you, bruh.

Why is Elvis Presley so controversial? Why do so many people love him and others despise him?

Look, this is simple, so I’ll type slowly: The more open, legitimate, and free porn production is, the fewer women are trafficked. Why on earth would you take the risk of trafficking people to force them to do something plenty of people are willing to do voluntarily?

The number of women willing to do porn voluntarily is staggeringly high. Like you wouldn’t even believe.
