That E-Woman is Being E-Degraded

The creation of highly realistic computer-generated images creates new ethical dilemmas. As illusionistic images of torture or rape become widely distributed, law enforcement faces additional difficulties prosecuting authentic images of criminal acts, due to the possibility that they are synthetic. The existence of faked pornographic photos of celebrities shows the possibility of using fake images to blackmail or humiliate any individual who has been photographed or filmed, although as such cases become more common, this effect will likely diminish. Finally, the generation of entirely synthetic images, which do not record actual events, challenges some of the conventional criticism of pornography.

Despite my seemingly unsympathetic title, I do recognize the merits of the argument. Even fake depictions of degredation encourage the transference of degredation to real individuals. What we need here is not censorship or a war on pornography or consciousness raising. What we need here is to teach each person the clear line between fantasy and reality. It's very clear, if you know where to look.


Interpersonal dynamics strongly contribute to sexual function, and premature ejaculation can be caused by a lack of communication between partners, hurt feelings, or unresolved conflicts that interfere with the ability to achieve emotional intimacy.

I guess... I dunno... maybe. All I'm saying is that... no man on earth would agree wtih that.
Also, take note from how I went from pornography to premature ejaculation.
