Flutterby™! : Alan Moore on porn

Bog Venus Versus Nazi Cock Ring: Some Thoughts Concerning Pornography By Alan Moore:

Rather, it is to suggest that our impulse towards pornography has been with us since thumbs were first opposable, and that back at the outset of our bipedal experiment we saw it as a natural part of life, one of the nicer parts at that, and as a natural subject for our proto-artists.
