Abstract
The production of so-called adult or pornographic content is widely criticised by both feminist and conservative movements. Pornography is accused of disseminating rape culture, promoting a patriarchal and degrading view of sexuality, and promoting paedophilia. Other accusations include the claim that pornographic production crushes women who could not really consent to participate in such films. However, these caricatured recriminations are far from reflecting the realities on the ground and ignore the difference between what is represented and what is real. This distinction is fundamental and should lead us to approach the issue not through the prism of morality, but through the prism of law. In a pragmatic and technical understanding of pornography, it is important to consider the issues and risks inherent in the sector in order to provide concrete responses.
