Many people involved in porn are exploited and/or abused and this is the area that needs control and made illegal, but how is it stopped? I don't think it can be to be honest.

Agree. I'm not going to pretend I don't watch it and I have no problem with it being an industry in principle but there's no question that it is rife with exploitation. I wouldn't use the word 'right' for it because I don't think it's admirable, it can encourage damaging stereotypes and abuse and there should always be a big effort made to ensure there are no illusions about that. Someone like Jenna Jameson is one of the rare, lucky ones who have become big enough stars through it that they can have it pretty good but that's not the reality for the vast majority of porn actors/actresses.

Right.

I definitely don't think it's an admirable profession, it's not like a doctor where you think 'oh wow, good on you, your parents must be proud!' it's more of a 'oh, okay then' but then I don't think it's necessarily a profession to be ashamed of, it's just a bit so so for me, do it if you want to, but I'm not going to congratulate a person for doing it.

What is Porn ? If two consenting adults make a sex tape... and then watch it, is that Porn ?

Is viewing all sex acts classed as Porn. Are there degrees of Porn not sure I can answer that.

In an ideal world it would be everything within the confines of social acceptability performed by those who are safe and consenting.
Except it isn't an ideal world.
