Show detail Hide detail

A discussion about pornography beginning with a montage of stills, video clips, and interviews. Short montages are interspersed with discussion later in the program. The introductory montage is followed by a discussion by a panel of experts who are questioned by a studio audience.~The program raises the following questions: stripper, exotic videos and explicit magazines - are they a harmless forum of erotica and entertainment, or are they degrading and obscene; where do you draw the line; how do we as a society decide what is morally acceptable; what are the long range effects of the availability of these materials; is violence against women and sexual assault related to and a result of the use of pornographic material; are we undermining moral standards and the ability to have healthy, loving relationships by exposing our young people to explicit materials; is pornography addictive; does one become de-sensitized and therefore seek more and more explicit material to get the same thrills; is pornography evil; and is censorship a greater evil. <1h>
