Pornography represents the commodification of women. When you use pornography there is no longer a person there. There is a body part that you fetishize. The person has become a thing. You are consuming that thing.

Our species clearly does this with all the animals and sea creatures that we consume. We distance ourselves from the grim reality of abuse inherent in the mass production of the animals we consume. We watch animal pornography that depicts animals as happy, pampered, respected beings. Then, we narrow our focus to the body parts we consume.

And, the same folks who would go all misty about animal rescue vignettes will sit down to a steak dinner without a scintilla of hypocrisy...
