Nine Myths about Pornography
(by one angry girl designs)

Myth 3: Porn is an outlet or safety valve for men who might otherwise do Bad Things.
Myth 4: Men like variety in women so porn use helps a man stay faithful to his woman.
Myth 5: Porn is harmless and has no effect on the person using it.
Myth 6: Women who work in porn are empowered, because they get to call the shots.
Myth 7: Porn is for men who sincerely appreciate the beauty of the female body.
Myth 8: Everyone knows porn is just a fantasy, so no one would try to apply it to real life.
Myth 9: Porn enhances relationships.
