The Spanish government has a plan to prevent kids from watching porn online: Meet the porn passport.
Officially (and drily) called the Digital Wallet Beta (Cartera Digital Beta), the app Madrid unveiled on Monday would allow internet platforms to check whether a prospective smut-watcher is over 18. Porn-viewers will be asked to use the app to verify their age. Once verified, they’ll receive 30 generated “porn credits” with a one-month validity granting them access to adult content. Enthusiasts will be able to request extra credits.
You have to request more porn credits from the government if you need more? Don’t want the government to be tracking this data of you. This is a privacy issue

How can you be against porn? It’s neither good or bad, it exists and I basically don’t watch it, but I recognize that others do, why is that a problem that needs solving? To be clear, I’m reading your response as against porn in all forms and for all audiences based on your wording, is that what you mean?

It seems pretty clear that advocates for and against porn/prostitution should all want it to be legalised and regulated so that proper controls and oversight can be put in place. Driving porn/prostitution in to the hands of criminal enterprise guarantees that there is no safety or standard of behaviour when it comes to these industries, much like the failing war on drugs.

Okay, well tell Portugal that then, considering the dramatic social shift after decriminalising and treating drug addiction as a health issue.
Obviously don’t do it like America, because that’s the same rule with most things.

Sounds like we agree then, you did say that there is no point in legalising it. If that was the combined concept of both legalising it and giving it to corps to handle being bad, then sure, we agree.
I paid rent using a webcam years ago, and I am not sure that your points really apply to all porn/sex-work. I am not denying that it doesn’t apply to some of it though.
Men paid me to chat with them, let them watch me jerk off, and sometimes watch them watch me jerk off. I was probably going to jerk off anyway, and knowing what I was so attractive that people would pay me to see me do it was a turn on.

It’s pretty fun to having guys go on and on about how big/suckable your dick is and how much they want you to fuck them. If I was single I’d probably do it again, even without being paid.
When you responded to @SlothMama@lemmy.world, you said that you were against all porn.
I was showing one of the many examples of being in the sex industry, without any abuse and without it being “paid rape” as you put it. You didn’t say “some”, “a lot”, or even “most”. You simply generalized all sex work as harmful to the worker/performer.

They’re probably against the exploitation associated with it. I’d compare it to being against diamonds due to the bloody conflicts associated with them.
