Description
The aim of this presentation is to analyze empirical evidence on whether it is morally acceptable to view pornography. To do this, a variety of re search that brings to light different angles on the topic is used to properly evaluate claims and counterclaims. This evidence focuses on three sub questions related to pornography; what are the psychological effects, how does it interfere with relationships, and is there any correlation with rates of rape or sexual assault. It then takes that evidence and translates it through a widely accepted philosophical belief and aims to put a normative answer to this question.
