Sorry, I often forget when I'm discussing things in context.  But my original
idea still remains valid.. pornography is degrading of its subject matter.  It
presents sex as something totally devoid of love, caresses, or anything other
than orgasms, basically.  Or if not just orgasms, then exclusively heavy-duty
sex.

However I must agree that male-male pornography I've seen is much less violent
than straight pornography.
