How Good Is Porn?

How's this for a conservation starter?

This domain was purchased by a group of men in Manchester - England,  passionate about exposing the truth behind pornography.
They had stickers (see below) printed and plastered them all over the city. The simple design and viral presence got the people of Manchester talking pretty quickly.


Have a look for yourself here




If nothing else, the How Good Is Porn project forces you to reassess exactly how much of a growing concern porn is. Everybody knows at the very back of their minds that so much of pornography is morally questionable to say the least, but we rarely mention it or act upon it. There is a misconception in some feminist circles that porn is just another form of sexual freedom that should be tolerated without comment. This shouldn't be the case - if there is an area where we should be as critical as possible it is sex work. Romanticized images of Billie Piper in 'Secret Diary Of A Call Girl' aside, there are real dangers in the world of prostitution and porn that cannot be ignored, and the How Good Is Porn project is one small step towards bringing these into the public consciousness.
