What the hell Iceland

Quote:
“Iceland is taking a very progressive approach that no other democratic country has tried,” said Professor Gail Dines, an expert on pornography and speaker at a recent conference at Reykjavik University. “It is looking a pornography from a new position – from the perspective of the harm it does to the women who appear in it and as a violation of their civil rights.” - See more at: http://www.patheos.com/blogs/genevei....809grpYN.dpuf

I find this wrong on so many levels.
This violates the voices of so many and will crush legitimate websites.

What is pornography really and who gets to determine it.

How does a woman who CHOOSES to be in pornography harmed?
And if a woman who CHOOSES to be in pornography harmed how does the same thing not harm men.
Are men magically immunity to the "bad" porn.

This is another case of demonized male heterosexuality and denying women sexual agency.
