    consequences of these materials. It order to discuss the extent to which pornography is harmful, it must first be defined what pornography is. From this point and thereafter the term pornography will be assumed to be “sexually explicit material (verbal or pictorial) that is primarily designed to produce sexual arousal in viewers” (Stanford) . This is the definition provided by Williams and is widely used in discussion of pornography due to its ability to distinguish between merely sexually explicit pictures (such as genitalia in a high school biology book) and sexual explicit material, which would generally be considered porn. This essay will specifically focus on the degree of harm resulting from mainstream, heterosexual inegalitarian pornographic films. By mainstream I mean this will not include fetish genres. This essay will also primarily focus on the post-production harms of consuming porn and not the harms to any of those actually involved in the process of creating the content. Having both provided an acceptable definition for the term pornography and addressing any assumptions, I will now critique Cooke’s argument on pornography. The two main points I will be critiquing are that pornography is fiction and that false beliefs obtained from pornography about the real world are not harmful. Through critiquing the argument, any weaknesses or flaws of the argument will be determined. As a result, this will provide justification that pornography is not simply fiction, and…

    addition to this, celebrities also have easier access to the Hollywood scene, considering that they 're part of it. They can help influence how adult magazines are distributed and used. These magazines play a big role in the human trafficking business as well. A public hearing of Los Angeles, in 1986, said that “photographers tortured women and girls accordingly, and then sold the photographs to the publisher.

    about sex had altered their lives. First, the most interesting and eye-opening person that spoke was Shelley Lubben. Her downfall started at an early age when she was disregarded by her parents and sexually molested at the age of 9. This then caused her to look for love in all the wrong places. After being kicked out of her parent’s house, she was approached by a man in whom another man wanted to make love with her with the offer of 35 dollars, in which she accepted based on the circumstances.…

    On November 28th, Stoya, famous porn star and ex-girlfriend of arguably the most famous male porn star, James Deen, was called out on Twitter with accusations of rape. If true, this could be incredibly damaging to Deen. Deen has been one of the most vocal people in porn to the point that people labeled him a feminist. Everything that I have read about him made him seem like the nicest guy in the industry, but when you throw rape accusations at someone, you had better make sure that you can…

    I find easiest to apply to real life was The Actor as Object of Desire, by Don Shewey. In passage one, the author details meeting their idol and getting the opportunity to become more connected or intimate with them, but turn the opportunity down instead because “intimacy pulls the plug” on the idealization of another human being. This is a very true statement in my mind. Actors, whether on stage or in film, are as human as they come, despite the masses’ attempts to put them on a pedestal.…

Having the heart for patronizing locally produced films is a social phenomenon to the Filipinos. It also serves them a unique emotional pleasure and satisfaction every time they watch movies. In films, there are different kinds of…

    theatre production made use of only two actors, and as there are significantly more characters in the story than just two, I was intrigued and excited to see how this had been done. Herford had commissioned Mallatratt to write a Christmas show, but since he had a very limited budget, it being the end of the season, he told Mallatratt that he “can’t afford to have more than four actors or elaborate sets”. By making the audience feel as though the theatre was empty but for the two actors,…

When discussing the content of the theater, I like seeing themes that explore overcoming some type of struggle or just wanting to be loved.

    reason, there are some points where the similarities of watching and participating detour into major differences. I preface this with a brief glimpse into my background. First off, I was not an actor. I loved the theatre very much and wanted to become a part of it, however I was not one for being on stage performing. The technical department was the next logical choice so I joined to operate the sound and lighting. I bring this up only so you realize…
