Why is pornography still alive and not illegal? Why doesn’t the government do about tricking women into them?

…criminals.

There is no legitimate reason to make it illegal.

If you ask anti-porn crusaders why porn should be banned, you will usually get three answers: “My preacher says the invisible god I worship says it’s wrong,” “sex is icky yucky ick ick ick unless it happens between people I say it should happen between, in situations I say it should happen in,” and “lookit all the women who are hurt by porn, I totally care about saving women (but not respecting their autonomy, offering them paid maternity leave, or, you know, doing any of those other things that would materially improve women’s lives).”

Here’s a neat mental exercise:

Criminals who won’t hesitate to traffic people, if it makes them money. The way you solve the problem is to remove the financial incentive to traffic people.

Look, this is simple, so I’ll type slowly: The more open, legitimate, and free porn production is, the fewer women are trafficked. Why on earth would you take the risk of trafficking people to force them to do something plenty of people are willing to do voluntarily?

Compare your lists. Notice anything funny?

Make a list of the countries where women are treated as second-class citizens or property.

Make a list of the countries that most stringently ban porn, with the harshest penalties.

Finally, “oh wow I want to protect the wimmens all the poor poor wimmens” ah HA ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha no you heckin’ don’t.

Making it illegal harms people, particularly women.

Say by creating an environment where people do the thing voluntarily, et voila.
