Radical anythingism is dangerous and can have a negative effect on human rights. It can also have a positive one. The problem is, no one country or government agrees on what human rights are, and in many cases don't even agree on what is human. Gays, Fetishist, Women, Blacks, Irish, Chinese, Indians et al at one time or another were considered less than human and therefore sans Human rights. It took radical feminism to give women the vote, radical efforts on the parts of Blacks, Irish, Indians, Chinese, Gays to get their rights recognized over the years. As I said there has been some positive effort, but there are always going to be pockets of ignorance and petty tyrants who believe that their way is the only way. We saw it in this country with McCarthy, Hoover, and we are likely to see it again., not only here but in Iran, Afghanistan, China, Russia, Canada, name the country there is someone who believes his way is the only way and will spend the efort and lives to enfource that.
Anyything can be shown to harm any group of people if you want it to. Statistics and opinion are easy to manipulate. Hell for gay porn hurting women it is only enough to say..All the good men are Gay. It's not true, but, you'd be surprised at how many believe that and believe still that being gay is a choice, not something as built in as breathing. Sooo..gay porn promotes gay sex which lures the good men and genes way from women.. I laugh at that thought and you laugh at it, but my grandmother would have believed it fully and there are a lot more out there who still will believe that despite Kinsey and other researchers. Hell the religious right still tends to believe that you can cure gay'ness as if it is a cold or addiction to be over come.
This is why I am both happy and sad to have seen this article. Glad because it points up what is happening and encourages people to face it and do something about it, sad because in this day and age it is happening.
