'Yet the anti porn campaigners stubbornly resist any deeper analysis of the issues. One has to wonder why.'
I fully agree with the rest of your post. But this particular sentence indicates to me that you may be the one who is resisting deeper analysis. You're conflating pornography with cultural pornification - which are two very separate issues.
Pornography is something that individuals choose to look at in private. And they have every right to full freedom of access to pornographic material.
Cultural pornification, on the other hand, is something that EVERYONE has to look at, or at the very least, have to actively try to avoid if they don't want to look at it. Just because some people 'don't see' anything wrong with pornified public imagery does not mean that those who do NOT want it in the public domain should have to lump it - especially when the jury is still out in terms of its effect on children and young people.
Campaigners against pornified advertising and pornified mass entertainment have as much right to lobby for change and regulation as any other acitivist group.
