Prop 8 and Porn

porn, pornography, red, conservative, liberal, homosexual, prop 8, religion, christian,
In case you missed it on Feministe (why aren't you visiting Feministe? it's awesome!) Utah is the biggest porn customer in the U.S., and states that have banned same-sex marriage in order to maintain traditional values consume 11% more pornography than states without marriage bans.

Here's the paper in pdf.

And a few more quotes:

"subscriptions are also more prevalent in states where
surveys indicate conservative positions on religion, gender roles, and sexuality. In
states where more people agree that “Even today miracles are performed by the
power of God” and “I never doubt the existence of God,” there are more subscriptions
to this service. Subscriptions are also more prevalent in states where more
people agree that “I have old-fashioned values about family and marriage” and
“AIDS might be God’s punishment for immoral sexual behavior.”



visitors from the “red”
states that voted for Bush in 2004 are more likely to visit wife-swapping sites, adult
webcams, and sites about voyeurism.
