| gargantuan industry. It only seems like it exists on the margins
| because it's been forced to act that way. In reality, it needs to
| be regulated like any other major industry that occupies such a
| sensitive area. And I think there will always be space on the
| true margins for people who want their sex/porn outside of the
| mainstream.
