Gee.... Now this is a really gray of discussion, considering the
fact that there can be neither absolute rights or wrongs on this
one.
Nevertheless, I just strongly feel that porn should not be
legalized.
Not in Singapore.
Not now.
Not ever.
If we are talking about artistic pieces of work such as still life
photographs or exhibits, that is still ok.
But to allow moving images that convey a primary intention to
sexually stimulate, that in my personal opinion, is not
healthy.
Suppose that the viewer is of a mature age and mentality to view
and interpret such contents, then in the least, we can be at least
assured of the fact that there would no or little risk of
potentially motivated crimes as such primary instincts are in
large, better well controlled in adults.
In the case of juveniles however, this would be an age group where
the risk is significantly higher, since at the adolesence age,
certain issues such as family planning are really never seriously
thought about.
If there are really tonnes of money which would be lost to the
closing of the porn industry in Singapore, so be it.
SG has so many talents in here with diversified focus and depth.
Dun tell me that the whole of SG will really starve to death if we
were to remain close to one such social ill industry.
