Pornography is an issue that has two points of view. Adults suffer consequences because of younger audiences, and this isn’t their fault but they still go by it. There are many restrictions with pornographic content like changing time slots on T.V. or having to place a credit card number over the net, which isn’t always safe. News stands and bookstores ask for proof of age. Then there is the point of view, which is that a lot of pornography is being shown to younger audiences that shouldn’t be observing. Many shows have explicit content that are shown at regular time slots. The Internet is a huge net full of websites and there are many sites that without charge offer pictures and/or videos to download. The purchase of porno magazines is easily achievable by simply sending in a subscription card. Pornography is shown to many people regardless of their age. Shouldn’t that be restricted?
Is pornography being censored to children that are not of age? No. Kids today can access many Internet sites where pornographic content is shown; also kids have TV’s in their rooms, which makes it easier for them to access such materials. Then there is the issue of the magazine subscriptions.
In Conclusion the government allows a lot of material to be viewed by anyone that is very explicit. Whether it’s online, over the old T.V., or as simple as purchasing magazines. It is possible to any one no matter age to get anything that may contain explicit scenes. If censorship gets stricter and shuts down some of the web sites that make it really easy to get a hold of pornographic pictures or videos, this is a start to preventing young viewers to be exposed to pornographic scenes. Enforcing laws as to whom enters adult stores or who buys adult magazines would help tremendously. Placing shows that contain scenes not appropriate for kids in later slots is a good start but the fact of the matter is that many kids stay up and watch them still. By editing or simply placing such shows in special channels that one must pay extra to get and is warned of the contents it might have is the best follow through to the prevention of young children to get hold of materials yet not suitable for them.
