10 Lesbian and Bisexual Women Answer - 'Are You For or Against Porn?'
Pornography can be a divisive topic - and it’s becoming more ubiquitous and easier to access all the time. We asked some queer women for their honest opinions on raunchy pics and skin-flicks and their impact. Are they empowering and fun? Or damaging for both viewers and performers?
FOR
1. “Consenting adults having sex should never be a crime. Who are we to try and police it?” - Kathy, 40.

2. “My girlfriend and I use porn all the time to spice things up. It's fantasy. We know we don't look like that and that's OK." - Elaine, 27
.
3. “I've actually posed for some solo shots myself and it made me feel really confident and sexy. I have no regrets at all." - Chloe, 24.
4. “Censorship is dangerous and the mark of a backwards society. This is the US, not North Korea.” - Sita, 36.
5. “They get paid shitloads to have sex. Where's the problem?” - AJ, 23.
AGAINST
6. “We're seeing a generation of kids growing up to be desensitized to 'normal' sex and looking for more and more extreme imagery in order to feel turned on.” - Ellie, 28.
7. “You can't beat sex with a living, breathing person who you love. Porn does absolutely nothing to me. The actors might as well be bits of meat.” - Catalina, 39.
8. “Porn is for sad people who can't get laid! It just makes me think of some old dude in a basement.” - Dani, 19.
