It mischaracterizes the nature ofpornography and how it functions, fails to adequately explain whypornography’s alleged ability to satisfy sexual desire results in a primafacie harm to women, and has politically damaging implications for women. Usingrecent research on imitation in the cognitive sciences, together with SusanHurley’s work on imitation and media violence, I offer a differentaccount of the relation between pornography and harm that takes into accountpornography’s ubiquity in mainstream culture, and more problematically,its accessibility to children and young people, as facilitated by new mediatechnologies.
