If an adult with a sound mind wants to enjoy watching a legally produced porn I have no objection or worry about it.

However, I am strongly against children and adolescents accessing porn,and adults accessing illegal porn.It is not only me but the entire civilised and democratic world's view.

If we cannot regulate it, it is far better to ban it(no one would be seriously harmed).

I am surprised a woman writer is advocating porn. Even legal porns mostly demean and misportray women.Many encourage violence and maltreatment of women.

Of course, the authority must have been selective and discriminated something like sex pistol from porn.

As regards the Danish study, the writer has not elaborated on it.It could very well be porn industry( billion dollars industry) sponsered study. Also, crime is such a complex thing even the best study cannot be reliable as there are so many factors that interplay.There are studies in support of banning porn as well.

Don't forget there are very few intelligent women from stable family background who become porn actresses-most have been exploited into it(due to their intellectual or psychological weaknesses).

Trafickng of women is a huge problem globally and we  must do something about it. However,topic here is porn.

Easy and indiscriminate access to porn may encourage prostitution and trafficking (definitely not reduce it).

@stupid cow - I find your comment rather harsh and impolite.

What you should understand is there are callous criminals across the world who are involved in human traficking. I bet your country is no exception.

Let us unite and find against this crime.

in few words.

censorship does not work, EDUCATION does, more through open discussion in and out of classroom,esp. in "closed" society like ours. cannot equate denmark study to here, different cultures (differnt folks, different strocks??). Prostitution has nothing to do with viewing porn, prstitution was pre-existing, in order to eleviate that, SCHOOLING to the poor and JOBS are required.

I appreciate the topic and the writer daring to write about it.

First,the idiocy of those in charge in blocking these sites is emphatically 'yes'.

Freud,a man behind the psychoanalysis,would have smiled wryly about this issue.Human instincts,that are innate and carved in the deep subconscious and conscious , are full of libido.Libido is a form of energy, like sex, love (also as a allegorical sex),childhood phantasies,even passions for music and food. And ,they must be catapulted for mature and healthy life.The Economist once wrote about music,of general manifestations that they may rejoice or express us.But those on soothing music like Gajals and blues and rocks may dissent that music is a sort of auditory 'masturbation',which is a plausible hypothesis.Sorry for this word,however.It is no secret,and the writer better had it added up that the main googled domians in Nepal were "sex","porn","hot girls" etc. and etc.

But,mostly urbanites are lured to Internet facilities in Nepal.While big thorny issues apart,many may argue this is just hoopla.Nay,this is subtle cloak.Because,I see where the liberal societies are,the chance that individualism is respected is taken as sure.And,where the expression is ,there is feeling shared.And ,inversly and conversly,sex is the fourthmost important need for humans.

As a big fans of death genres like Opeth,I know the intensity with which passion the music is revered.I'll try Sex Pistols too.Huffinton Post,as many leaders don't know the magnificent articles the site is for.So much for half-balked ,lame brained traumatic leaders.

governmant has to make the rule against the crime, not like this kind of foolisness!!!

even goverment or any international law also cannot stop such a things from........human brain...because...its releted with sexsual activities  .better we need to give good sex education about  to our new generation and goverment need to make good sociel and political enviroment to people ......normally theses things  also help a lot of girls for survive in development country ....because they don"t  have any choice.coz of it..porn sites publisher take the advantage from these girls . goverment should make the exceptionalable rules for it, like in our traditional and relligious country so it can manage such a sites.......
