Interesting article here: 'Accepting 'rough sex' as a man's defence for killing a woman makes a mockery of our justice system'

It doesn't sell itself as something that really warrants reading when it starts with such a self-evidently obvious headline.

I think we're probably there. In my more mischievous moments, I have suggested that perhaps the only way to fight the tendency is to start to flood the market with "good" porn, made ethically, both in terms of production and content. There might be a few details to work out, but I don't think it's such a bad idea - the biggest challenge would be getting it past the sort of people who insist that, solely because they don't like something, it should be forbidden.

Not sure there'd be a sustainable market for it. I get the impression that the market quickly gets flooded/consumers get bored, with one thing quite quickly, and so the next iteration has to be that bit more extreme, if it's going to sell.

Yes, but it would at least present an alternative against which it might be somewhat harder to normalise the abusive stuff.
Call me a starry-eyed optimist, but I don't think most teenage boys are abusive sociopaths looking for the nastiest, most vicious ways to have sex. Far more likely is that they are ignorant, and using porn as a means of education. Since that's happening, effectively, in a vacuum - you go and try to find a porn video where there isn't an element of "take that, you bitch" going on - there's no huge surprise that it's become normalised.
We should be providing "sex education". Not a little strand in PSHE lessons, but some specific, proper, grownup pointers to ways to behave. And not just vague "treat her like a lady" stuff, but fairly explicit and pointed examples of what's OK, and what isn't.

I remember reading an article a while back about a small porn setup that was trying the 'ethical route'.
Not sure how they're doing these days.

So, I suspect, do quite a few adults.

While there are too many of those kind of videos, there are also plenty of videos available that feature solo actresses, often apparently "self-employed", for want of a better term. They tend to be the better ones IMO.
I don’t think I know anyone who watches extreme porn, or certainly none that mention it. I know plenty of people who’ve read 50 Shades of Grey though.

Depends what you call "extreme porn". It seems to me that the sort of porn which most people appear to think of as mainstream still seems to involve quite a lot of seemingly casual violence. I don't think I'm particularly prudish, but the level of coercion and albeit-light violence seems to me to be a little too normalised...

Mm, but they're not going to be teaching adolescents how to have sex...

As I understand it’s a very narrow definition of ‘extreme’ in the law

Why would they mention it?
If it’s so prevalent and normalised then surely it crops up in conversations?

People don't discuss their sexual proclivities do they?
Some do some don’t.
Do people chat to you about what porn they like? Really?
A couple of mates have in the past, yes. I don’t get what’s apparently odd about it.

There's also 'the pact', which requires a degree of openness.
This being the arrangement between (usually) young single men where if one suddenly dies, the others know where their grot folder on their PC is so it can be deleted (after being exported to a memory stick in some cases) before the deceased's Mum happens across it.

I think you are too busily constructing that strawman.
My god. No words.

"Yeah, had a right nice wank the other night to some sort taking two up the shitter. More pork scratchings?"
All a bit odd in Magnus's world.

Once at work when an NOx alarm forced us to shut down and wait in the break room (before they turned it off because 'otherwise we'd have to keep stopping work' or words to that effect) a conversation about free porn sites and the available categories started, ending with one guy on his feet raving about how beautiful 'chicks with dicks' (yeah, I know
) were while his friend tried to make him sit down and shut up 
Pretty sure some of those guys used to talk to each other about their porn habits more privately too
This was about ten years ago though
