A Jewish Response To Pornography

Tamar Fox writes on Jewcy.com:

But then, in the past few months, someone I know pretty well, someone from a very observant background who is, as far as I know, still shomeret Shabbat and kashrut, began making pornography. And I’m not talking a few scantily clad pictures, I’m talking a significant library of photos and videos available online of her doing a variety of things with a variety of partners of both genders. This is a girl who has a degree in biology from a top-notch university (something she touts on one of her websites), who spent time learning in a seminary in Israel, and who plans to teach Judaica. In one of the pictures someone sent to me she lies naked on a kitchen counter, her head hanging off of the edge and her naked breasts framing her face from above. The captions names her a naughty housewife.

Suddenly, my ‘whatever works for you’ attitude seems horribly naïve. Because I’m now paying little attention to the consumers of this porn, and instead considering seriously what gets a girl to the point where she feels it’s necessary or ultimately beneficial for her to have sex with someone for money. And beyond that, I’m thinking about the ramifications this must have on her family and her community. It is hard to imagine what, specifically, the ladies of the Sisterhood might have to say to the mother of a girl like this, but one can safely assume it would be brutal and sharp.

    Interesting position to take. But I feel that getting paid to have sex with someone seemingly is less than harmful than say most social progressives that are destroying our nation right now. I would suggest that we worry about real problems and real harms, and that’s the liberals and their agenda to radically change the direction of this country. The problem is this girl you are talking about is AN ADULT, who has made a decision in life, good or bad, and must reap what she has or will sow in life. Contemplating about the religious ramifications is neither productive nor is it helpful.
    Again, which should we really worry about, Hollywood shoving more and more violent films that are pushing the boundries of social acceptance, or the CONSENSUAL act between two adults to have sex, which, mind you, does not harm anyone, make anyone go out and commit murder, or blow up a federal building.
    We are truly living in the most dangerous times of our society as well as nation if not the entire world and to worry about a girl who takes a picture of herself naked and draped over a kitchen counter with her boobs over her face is hardly grounds for the national security to be raised another color.

    Geez, did I write all of that???????
