Battered and Bruised
Not Where You Think
“O mankind! reverence your Guardian-Lord, who created you from a single person, created, of like nature, His mate, and from them twain scattered (like seeds) countless men and women;- reverence All Mighty God, through whom ye demand your mutual (rights), and (reverence) the wombs (That bore you): for All Mighty God ever watches over you.”
Holy Quran 4:1
I don’t want to hear nothing about how the people of other lands treat their females. In the states united there is plenty of violence towards women to go around. I mean, any close examination of violence and abuse will unveil a deep seated tradition of violence against females on this land. This is not just confined to physical abuse. It can be physical, mental or a combination of both. Violence takes many forms.
Now, one form of acceptable violence and abuse of females is the pornography industry. This form of violence rakes in billions every year in the states united. It is violence against women, you know? Why? Because most, if not all of the females participating are doing so out of desperation for revenue. That makes it mostly an industry full of females under a form of duress or coercion, and even though most will not openly admit it in a public setting, they will quietly whisper it in private.
Think about it? What sane female, with an income sufficient to sustain themselves is going to literally debase and defile themselves on video naked in a room with 25 strangers in it? What female with a stable home, a stable income and stable upbringings, who is not on drugs, just decides one day to join an industry that is going to have her getting “run through” on a weekly basis? Females by their true nature don’t work that way, unless they have been “placed in that situation,” by financial crisis most times. “Get that money baby,” whispers the pimp.

The following clip is a fine example of how this pornographic “filth” has the possibility of creating real problems in real relationships. The woman depicted in the video is obviously having marital difficulties. Why would that be? At the time of the filming there was no internet, so the “nasty men” of that era had pornographic magazines. Back then it was considered by some as a source of pride. High rollers and the “well to do” would have sundry Playboy and Penthouse Magazines neatly displayed on their glass coffee tables and such. It was awkward, and tacky, but back then everyone “well to do” was sniffing cocaine so they seemed to not see the “ill in it.” This was the 1970 and 80’s after all.
The 170’s and 80’s was paving the way for now. In the video the woman has a problem with the man’s “magazine,” and she gets a whipping for it. She apparently was tired of “the magazine” stealing her affections. Let’s be clear, “Everyone knows what he was doing with that magazine.” He did not just have one either. The man depicted is a sex addict, as evidenced by his reaction to being “exposed.” He was enraged that his flesh and blood companion would question his “habits.” “That jar of Vaseline shoved between the sofa pillows is for my cuts damn it,” he yells, as he shoves her hand away.
I mean, think about it? The loving wife is getting “mopped” over a piece of printed paper with perverse images on it. She was not getting a beating for catching him with another “live” woman, but with a greasy piece of paper with perverted, filthy, images on it. That is wild. It also evidences the mental sickness that those so inclined inculcate into themselves by losing touch with reality. These people are willing to harm “real life” females over “fantasy” paper ones.

Content Analysis
88% of scenes in porn films contain acts of physical aggression

The most popular category on Pornhub in 2019 was 'Japanese'
In 2019, 'Amateur' was the most viewed category on Pornhub
88% of scenes in porn films contain acts of physical aggression
Our Interpretation
In a world where aggression seemingly reigns supreme, it seems the allure of 'Lesbian' love continues to captivate audiences as the most searched term on Pornhub, echoing perhaps a desire for a softer, more intimate connection. Meanwhile, the rise of 'Japanese' content as the most popular category and the overwhelming viewership of 'Amateur' videos point to a growing appetite for authenticity and diversity in sexual expression. However, the sobering fact that 88% of porn scenes include physical aggression serves as a stark reminder of the dark underbelly that lurks within the industry, urging a critical examination of the fine line between fantasy and reality.
Content Production
In 2019, there were over 6.83 million new videos uploaded to Pornhub

Nearly 90% of pornography is created in the United States

Our Interpretation
The sheer volume of content being churned out by the porn industry is truly mind-boggling, with numbers that could make even the most avid binge-watcher blush. With more videos being uploaded than one could reasonably watch in a lifetime, it's clear that the porn world is not only booming, but practically dominating the digital landscape. While these statistics might raise a few eyebrows, one thing is certain - when it comes to producing content, the porn industry is not shy about going the extra mile.
Illegal Content
Child pornography is one of the fastest growing online businesses
Child pornography is one of the fastest growing online businesses
Our Interpretation
The alarming rise of child pornography as one of the fastest growing online businesses is a stark reminder of the depravity that thrives in the dark corners of the internet. This disturbing trend not only highlights the need for stricter regulations and enforcement measures but also underscores the urgent need for society to address the root causes driving such abhorrent exploitation of innocence. It is a grave reflection of a digital age where exploitation can masquerade as profit, highlighting the importance of unrelenting vigilance and concerted efforts to safeguard the most vulnerable among us.
Industry Employment
The US adult film industry employs over 12,000 people
The average career of a porn actor is usually only between 6 to 18 months
Our Interpretation
In the high-stakes world of the adult film industry, numbers don't lie: with over 12,000 employees working behind the scenes to bring fantasies to life, it's a sprawling business. However, the spotlight can be fleeting, as the average career of a porn actor lasts just 6 to 18 months. In this industry, the fast-paced nature of both production and turnover highlights the intense pressure and volatility that comes with pursuing a career in adult entertainment.

The global porn industry is estimated to be worth about $97 billion
The US adult film industry generates approximately $12 billion per year

Our Interpretation
In a world where scoring points on a field seems to hold the most prestige, it's a different kind of scoreboard that reigns supreme behind closed doors. The staggering statistics of the pornography industry reveal that the business of pleasure is not just a side game, but a multi-billion dollar powerhouse that puts even the sporting giants of the NFL, NBA, and MLB to shame. With a playbook filled with cash flow and an audience that never seems to stop tuning in, it's clear that when it comes to where people choose to invest their time and money, desire always seems to come out on top.

From unwanted popup peep shows to billions of searches for skin flicks, it seems like internet users just can't keep their hands off the naughty bits of data. So next time you're scrolling through your favorite streaming sites, remember that behind the scenes, the real action might just be happening on Pornhub, where 42 billion visits in 2019 alone prove that when it comes to internet traffic, sex still sells.

Mobile devices account for over 76% of Pornhub's global traffic
39% of all internet pornography is viewed on smartphones
24% of smartphone owners admit to having pornographic material on their mobile handset
Our Interpretation
In a world where smartphones have become an extension of our hands, it appears that they are also becoming a portal to a flourishing industry that remains largely taboo. With 1 in 5 mobile searches devoted to pornography and over three-quarters of Pornhub's traffic coming from mobile devices, it seems our digital desires have found a comfortable, albeit discreet, sanctuary in the palm of our hands. As nearly 40% of internet porn is consumed on smartphones and a quarter of smartphone owners are unapologetically carrying adult content in their pockets, it's clear that the allure of X-rated material knows no bounds, not even the confines of a small screen.

Our Interpretation
These statistics paint a revealing picture of the impact that pornography can have on relationships and family dynamics. While some may dismiss it as harmless entertainment, the numbers suggest otherwise. From potential contributing factors to divorce to the normalization of distorted perceptions of sex, these findings highlight the need for thoughtful discussions and awareness regarding the implications of pornography consumption in our society. As Oscar Wilde famously said, "Everything in the world is about sex except sex. Sex is about power." Perhaps it's time we start examining who holds that power when it comes to the influence of pornography.
Youth Exposure
The average age of first exposure to porn is 11 years old

The average age of a child's first exposure to porn is 11 years old
70% of children aged 7-18 have accidentally encountered online pornography
90% of 8-16 year olds have viewed porn online
Our Interpretation
In a world where the average age of first exposure to porn is a startling 11 years old, and where the majority of young people actively seek out explicit material weekly, it's clear that society is facing a pervasive issue. With stats showing that a significant portion of children are stumbling upon online pornography at an alarmingly young age, the normalization of this behavior among peers is concerning. The impact of such early and frequent exposure on young minds and attitudes towards intimacy cannot be ignored. It is essential for parents, educators, and policymakers to address and combat this growing phenomenon with urgency and vigilance.

See, the evil doers of media display violence against females in one specific way, to wit, “fists and blows,” and this is what the people expect when the term “violence” is used. This is a ploy, I believe, to lessen the reality of other forms of “violence.” People expect black eyes, bruises and such, they never expect exploitation. In fact, when a police officer receives a report of domestic violence the first thing that is asked is, “Are you injured, do you have any bruises?” Why? Because legally “injury” is required for domestic “violence.”
Now, ask yourself a question? How many female “participants” in the porn industry “really want to be there?” I mean, “Really?” Think about it? Females are built different. They are not natural strumpets or loose. Society has made them that way in the Western realm. Females are created emotionally. What does that “industry” do to the emotions of females? What about the physical abuses associated with such? How many end up drug addicts or commit suicide?
The way that people view females plays a major role in the way that they treat them. People have been taught to view females as some sort of lesser thing, something to be governed and utilized as needed. This is a sad position to take because it deprives a person of so many more valuable things. Everyone has value, men, women and children, and each deserves to live a life free from yoke of having to humiliate, defile or debase themselves just to earn their daily bread.
“Trillions to foreigners………………………” Nothing to the people. Results? See above. Economics play a major role. As the economy slips, people become desperate. In some countries they actually promote females prostituting themselves.
“When the Council of Europe’s Human Rights Commissioner, Dunja Mijatović, released a statement on February 15th calling for the full decriminalisation of pimping, brothel-keeping and all forms of third-party profiteering, she claimed to have “consulted with sex workers across Europe, their representative organisations, relevant international organisations and experts…” – writes Rachel Moran. This came as news to those of us stakeholders involved in organizations made up of sex trade survivors, frontline service providers, women’s rights campaigners and legal experts focused on combatting the harms of the global sex trade. It was news because none of us were consulted.”
“As bizarre as it will sound to some people, there is nothing new in the promotion of pimping under the banner of human rights principles; it is obviously counterintuitive, but we in the women’s rights movement have been listening to it for years. There are many loops of logic one must jump through to follow this line of thinking, but an essential first is the fiction that being mauled, licked, sucked and penetrated by random strangers is not a violation in itself.”
“Many women have campaigned for years against the global sex trade. Some of us, like myself, have been used in the brothels and the red-light zones. Many others have not. What unites us all is the vision that what the world needs is a system of partial decriminalization, where those exploited in prostitution are decriminalized, while the pimps who enjoy vast profits and the punters who enjoy buying sexual access to the bodies of vulnerable women are held legally accountable for their abusive and exploitative behavior.”
“We have seen for years now the creative backlash from the profiteers of an exploitative trade that must reinvent itself against the backdrop of legislative progress made in this area by sex trade survivors and women’s rights organizations. The mantle of ‘human rights’ was probably both the least appropriate and the most influential position from which they could have chosen to argue. Every now and then though, the mask slips in a fashion so dramatic as to be entertaining, like when Amnesty International was questioned in Stormont in 2014 about the involvement of British pimp Douglas Fox in framing their prostitution policy, or when high profile ‘sex workers rights’ advocate and advisor to UNAIDS policy Alejandra Gil was convicted of sex trafficking in Mexico on a raft of charges so numerous and serious they landed her a fifteen-year sentence in a Mexican prison.”
“Not all those who argue for a decriminalized sex trade are driven by an obvious personal self-interest. Some are driven by career interests in academia, which are not so apparent to the casual observer, but are at least as despicable as the motives of the pimps, in my view. Others argue from an ignorant but genuinely well-intentioned perspective for a blanket decriminalisation of all aspects of the global sex trade. However well-intentioned, it is not possible to take this stance without disappearing the abusive nature of what is done to women in prostitution. Only in that dramatically blinkered way, when ideology rules the day and the actual reality of what is happening to women’s bodies, spirits and psyches is ignored, can this position make sense. It is not lost on me that this is dehumanisation manifesting in yet another form. The sex trade is riven with it; why would the arguments to defend it have any different flavor?
“I’ve never come across an argument calling for the full decriminalization of all aspects of prostitution that was not heaving with practical inaccuracies, linguistic inversions and calculated concealments. Ms Mijatović’s statement is a good example of this. In it she notes that “Belgium became the first European country to decriminalize sex work in 2022” before going on to laud this move as a new beacon of progressive legislation, offering the example that “The new law also decriminalizes third parties, who will no longer be penalized for opening a bank account for sex workers or renting out accommodation, and it allows sex workers to advertise their services.” She never mentions why a supposedly autonomous woman in prostitution would need a pimp to open a bank account on her behalf, or the rates charged to women to rent out rooms in which to be used, often so exploitatively exorbitant that they must be used by seven or eight men before they even cover that day’s rent.”
“I returned from Belgium on February 11th, just days before this statement was released. I’d gone there on a fact-finding mission, to conduct four pre-planned interviews and to walk, accompanied, around the red-light zone. It is situated in walking distance of the European Parliament. What I saw there was disturbing beyond words or measure. Scores and scores of near naked women in windows, lining the entire side of one very long street, and many more women in the side-streets connected to it and the streets beyond that, and pre-pubescent boys playing in those side-streets, as if playing amongst women displayed as sex objects for hire was a natural or healthy environment for children; as if ingraining the understanding of women as sexual merchandise in the minds of boys could create anything but violence and misogyny in the men they will become.”
“The women I’d gone there to interview covered various areas of expertise. Ms Viviane Teitelbaum, Vice President of the Brussels Regional Parliament, had this to say about her political colleagues who colluded to create the situation in which Belgium now finds itself: “Politicians who voted for decriminalisation did not listen to women. They voted for a system that’s good for pimps, for traffickers, for some men… They ignored all the warnings, they ignored all the messages, from women’s organisations, from women who came to testify in Parliament. They just listened to representatives of a system that’s making money out of women’s poverty.”
“Pascale Rouges, prostituted for many years in Belgium, said “You give yourself body and soul. That’s the job, if you could call it a job. You really give your whole body; nothing belongs to you and you lose your soul. I want to ask these politicians if they would like this as an option for their own kids?”
“Alyssa Ahrabare is the Legal Lead of the Brussels-based European Network of Migrant Women, a platform of over fifty organisations working across twenty-three European Union countries. I ask about the profile of women in prostitution across Europe; she tells me that 70% of the women prostituted in Europe are migrant women. She says: “The reality of prostitution for the majority of women in prostitution is nothing but violence. We speak a lot about freedom of choice and freedom of sexuality; that’s not what prostitution is about. Women and girls in prostitution are denied their desire and their individuality and humanity.”
“Mireia Cresto, Executive Director of Brussels-based frontline service Isala, says “It is evident that the new legislation has created a pull factor on the sex trade: pimps and sex traffickers know that the Belgian territory is now favorable for their profits. On the frontline, for the women and girls affected by the system of prostitution, decriminalization brings neither status nor additional protection, since in order to convict a pimp, one must prove that there has been an abnormal profit or advantage.” An abnormal profit or advantage, that is, above and beyond the regular business of pimping.”
“The decision of the Belgian government to allow the free-for-all of human rights violations that I witnessed on the streets of Brussels demonstrates the deadly disconnect between ivory tower thinking and the reality on the ground. What’s even more disturbing is the Council of Europe’s Human Rights Commissioner involving herself in a coordinated and determined push to spread decriminalized sex trades across Europe.”
“The truth of decriminalized prostitution systems is that they are a cancer on this earth, and in Europe the first cells have shown up in two very important political structures, the European Union and the Council of Europe. The years to come will show us the mettle of our politicians, in whether they will determinedly excise the tumor, or allow this destructive social cancer to spread across the continent itself.”

This whole situation would not exist except for the mere fact that there is a market for lustful, nasty men. This speaks volumes about the minds of some men. I mean, as a man I have trouble digesting some of the deeds that other men do, especially when it comes to this type of situation. I also comprehend where this type of carnal “violence” comes from. It comes from public school, television, media, Hollywood, social media and others of like minds. It was ingrained as “normal life,” in the same way men in dresses are now considered such.
Society, also called, “normal life,” is a corrosive thing, just ask the females aforementioned, especially if one follows the script as directed.
Lord have Mercy



What a horrifying subject. Brave you for tackling it.
Might there be a relationship between COVID and porn?
