Re: How to block porn from On-Demand channels?

I hear ya...I just personally think it's much ado about nothing.

It's just weird in our society that animated violence in media is ok, but people having sex (which is about as dangerous as a visit to the mall) isn't. It's ok to watch The Lord Of The Rings, and see thousands slaughtered in a fantasy movie. But people getting naked and having safe nonviolent fun isn't. It's an equally weird double standard that naked amazonian women are ok, and naked Jenna Jameson's aren't.

And yes, as a parent I use this philosophy as a guide with my children too. Talk to your child, and this won't be the problem you think it is. As far as Charter is concerned, they should be able to install a filter on your line.

The difference may be that in LOTR, the violence is acted out and fake while in an "adult" movie the "action" isn't pretend.

Or maybe we're just messed up.

I find that most porn stars 'performances' are fake. Its not like it really 'feels good' all the time... So I disagree, "adult" movies ARE pretend. Its all psychological... and sorry were not all messed up... were just humans who like different forms of entertainment. Sorry for being different.

I'll simply have to plead ignorance on the issue, then.

I wasn't making any value judgements; I was just trying to propose why one may find porn offensive but not LOTR.

All of which has nothing to do with the real problem in the original post.
