Personally, I don't care about the porno topic.

What I care more about is the way that people are treated for having an
opinion that differs from someone else. Someone comments that it was wrong
to do, and rather than just accept that the person has an opinion, we see
snooty remarks going back and forth.

Is it necessary to make comments like:

" grow up people"

" just stand there next to the wall next time do not venture out!"

I don't have the other quotes to add, but we have all seen them. Why is it
necessary to put down someone else instead of considering their opinion as
just that, and leave it alone?

My comments are not about liking or disliking pornography. Its about a
society accepting the fact that someone disagrees. Actually, its just
about respect, period.

We are all calling ourselves adults, but maybe a look in the mirror might
reveal a different reflection.
