How do you get a timeline where pornos are socially acceptable in the US to the point that they can be shown in mainstream movie theaters without it being a big deal?
Man, it's weird, but I was thinking about this the other day. (For no reason... none whatsoever...)
I think having it considered art somehow is the best bet, and probably in order to do this you'll have to have censorship fail time and time again. No clue how to make any of that happen.
The effects are more interesting. If our collective vision of pornography is an exercise in looking for the "best" from an artistic perspective instead of the ones that adhere to our respective fantasies, then our fantasies gradually become altered over generations as well.
And more interestingly, growing up, our concept of sex itself is altered and the butterflies of this could be... unique.
Deep Throat was released mainstream theaters, As was I am Curious Yellow. Both films were hard core porn, and caused many law suites. Then the so called Moral Majority came along and set US culture back 20 years.
