| | | | Pornography - Technology and pornography: Encyclopedia II - Pornography - Legal status The legal status of pornography varies widely. Most countries allow at least some form of pornography. In some countries, softcore pornography is considered tame enough to be sold in general stores or to be shown on TV. Hardcore pornography, on the other hand, is usually regulated. Child pornography is illegal in almost all countries, and most countries have restrictions on pornography involving violence or animals.
Some people, including pornography producer Larry Flynt and the writer Salman Rushdie, have argued that pornography is vital to freedom and that a free and civilized society should be judg ...

| | | | Pornography - Technology and pornography: Encyclopedia II - Pornography - Pornography and sex crimes It has long been theorized that there may be a link between pornography, particularly violent pornography, and an increase in sex crime. This theory has relatively little empirical support and indeed Japan, which is noted for violent pornography, has the lowest reported sex crime rate in the industrialized world, which has led some researchers to speculate that an opposite relationship may in fact exist; that wide availability of pornography may reduce crimes by giving potential offenders a socially accepted way of regulating their own sexua ...

| | | | Pornography - Technology and pornography: Encyclopedia II - Pornography - History Pornography has an extensive history. Sexually suggestive and explicit artwork is as ancient as artwork of any other content; explicit photographs date to very shortly after the invention of photography; and among the earliest films are works depicting nudity and explicit sex.
Nude human beings and sexual activities are depicted in some paleolithic art (e.g. Venus Figurines); however, it is not certain that the purpose was sexual arousal, as the images may have had instead a spiritual significance. There are numerous pornographic pain ...

| | | | Pornography - Technology and pornography: Encyclopedia II - Pornography - Anti-pornography movement Main article: Anti-pornography movement
Opposition to pornography generally, though not exclusively, comes from one of two sources: religion or feminism. Religious groups frequently decry pornography as immoral. They tend to believe that God has reserved sexual intercourse for a man and a woman within the confines of marriage, and that both the production and use of pornography contribute to immoral behavior in society. Feminist critics of pornography generally consider it demeaning to women. They believe that depictions of sex ...

| | | | Pornography - Technology and pornography: Encyclopedia II - Pornography - Terminology In its original meaning, pornography was literally "writing about prostitutes", from the classical Greek roots πορνη and γραφειν. Πορνη started as a euphemism and literally meant '(something) sold.' It is related to the verb περνημι meaning 'to sell.' It derived from a Greek term for men who chronicled the well-known "pornai", or skilled prostitutes of ancient Greece. In more modern times, the term was adopted by social scientists to describe the work of men like Nicholas Restif and William Acton, ...

| | | | Pornography - Technology and pornography: Encyclopedia II - Pornography - Pornographic stereotypes Pornographic work contains a number of stereotypes. Although pornography targeted at heterosexual males often includes interaction between females, interaction between males is never seen. In hardcore materials, a male generally ejaculates outside his partner's body, in full view: the so-called "cum shot". Penises are almost always shown fully erect (except where prohibited, e.g. in legal United Kingdom magazines). In heterosexual pornography the choice of position is naturally geared to giving the viewer the fullest view of the woman, makin ...
