Why (Almost) Everything (You Think) You Know about Pornography Is (Probably) Wrong.

If the harm done by pornography and the social threat it represents are so clear and obvious, then why are the arguments made against it so uniformly bad? In this lecture, Religious Studies professor and sociologist Doug Cowan explores the social construction of the porn threat. And what he says may surprise you. The size of the pornography industry, for example, is regularly over-estimated by at least an order of magnitude.
