Here's an interesting article in The Humanist with veteran porn star Marie Hartman, AKA Nina Hartley (her stage name).
Porn has, and continues to be, incredibly controversial, despite no clear link being made between porn and aggression, rape levels, etc. One meta-analysis found that violent pornography raises aggression, though this also occurs for non-pornographic violent media.
Personally, I don't see the big deal; we watch action movies to get excited, horror to feel scared, and porn to get turned on. What's wrong with that? Unless, of course, you're against people getting turned on... and for those that are, why isn't there a crusade against romance novels, too? Harumph.
