Re: What about women watching/reading porn?
i think porn is banned in pakistan on a national level for the same reason that alcohol is banned. islam doesnt allow for porn and as pakistan considers itself mostly a muslim country and tries to mandate a somewhat islamic doctrine, they ban the things which are not permitted in islam..
Agreed.
It is a very separate debatable topic if Pakistan today really is the representative of Islamic teachings.
No it is not. No matter how much Pakistan is bashed based on so called Islamic country, it was and has always been religiously neutral and/or the *follower of people of OTHER THAN ISLAM have ruled this country so far.

** People of Pakistan are consistently fooled that Pakistan is Islamic country. In reality it is not, in its full/entire meaning.

Just as an extension:
Interestingly enough, Non-Muslim powerful countries whenever they feel like, can make Pakistani judiciary, Cabinet members, foreign ministers, Ambassador(s), ANY rulers and Army to bow to them.
All it takes is a phone call. :)
**now we're gona talk about what social class watches porn avidly....seriously? **so rich ppl dont watch porn and consider it disgusting...while its the untouchables in society that cant get it anywhere else so they turn to porn. uhhhh
My comment was based on above 25000 people survey in US....where people do not allegedly have reason to be shy (at least that is the perception which is created)
I had the link of that survey and will be glad to spend time to search it if asked. But the survey concluded that those who admitted to watching porn on that survey were mostly from middle class.
I think, the porn watching not as rule limited to a particular class. But the porn industry thrives on people who lack morality and and large number of people who approve porn and openly admit without any hesitation belong to lower middle class. They have not much to lose in terms of their reputation.
Now,
We can make assumptions and make jokes that those who deny watching porn for fun are liars. Fine by me. :)
