RICHMOND, Va. -- A lawmaker in Virginia has filed a bill that would declare pornography a public health hazard in the state, CBS Richmond affiliate WTVR reports.
Del. Robert G. Marshall of Prince William County proposed the bill, which says pornography leads to problems including the hypersexualization of teenagers and the normalization of abuse of women and children.
While not calling for a ban on porn, the proposed bill says a “pornography epidemic” needs to be addressed, and that there is a need for research, education and policy change regarding what it calls a “public health crisis.”

Govt. needs to stay out of our bedrooms, and sex lives! Adults have the right to see, and do whatever they choose to do with fellow consenting adults. This is more puritan BS.
ReplyDeleteSame goes for prostitution laws, a adult can sell their blood, eggs, seamen, skills, efforts, ideas, labor, but not their body for the enjoyment of sex from another.
Stupid, and backwards thinking.
Porn is sick and in many cases leads to perverted behavior. Sexually healthy people do not use porn.
ReplyDeleteThe Delegate from VA needs to focus on more IMPORTANT issues in the Commonwealth of VA. Porn is not that IMPORTANT at this time.
ReplyDelete1:08 , what makes you think porn is wonderful and consensual? Debased lust and degeneracy are not examples of forward thinking.
