Mainstreaming Porn @ 29 May 2009 02:35 PM

This news story taken from "googlinggod.blogspot.com"  It outlines the attempt of the pornography industry to mainstream porn to our children. College students across the U.S. have been watching porn. More specifically, they have been watching hard-core porn in campus lecture halls, assembly rooms and theaters…with universities’ approval.

Free on-campus screenings of the pornographic film Pirates II: Stagnetti's Revenge, the most expensive hard-core porn film ever made, have been taking place at various colleges and universities across the nation. The distributor of the film, Digital Playground, recently began offering screenings to student unions, and universities have been showing the movie for “entertainment and educational purposes.”



At first I didn't believe this story and didn't think it made sense--even from a business standpoint. In an age where the porn industry more than any other industry has been able to use the internet to market their product anonymously and make tons of money doing it--why would they do this more traditional marketing approach?
Is the attempt here to start to gain a more widespread acceptance of pornography as a genre in mainstream culture.
