Medical testing on animals is still too high but moving in the right direction.
The 9% that thinks adultery is okay must be the same 9% that approvrd the job congress is doing or basically just say yes to everything.

I also find is distutbing more people say abortion is okay than porn. Not that porn is really moral buy seriously how can someone say abortion is okay and porn is not? Odd. This is not about legality but moral acceptance. People are strange.

If one finds pornography problematic because of the way it typically objectifies and dehumanizes women and the way it seems to screw with human sexuality by its very nature(though there hasn't been much objective research on the subject. "I want to study the effects of "sexy Cowgirls XXX" on the human brain" isn't exactly a grant-money magnet) instead of it violating ones idea of the natural order of things, then finding abortion acceptable at the same time isn't peculiar, especially if one considers the fact that fetuses don't develop mentally into something resembling a human until somewhere around 22(IIRC) weeks in as part of one's view on abortion.

I am not sure why I totally forgot about the feminist opposition to it. Now it makes more sense. I guess I think of religion as the default POV when people say moral or immoral. Although the feminist argument is more interesting since it can be used to argue either for or against. Some would say it objectifies women and others may say it empowers. I tend to side with those who say it objectifies. Whether it is immoral or not I am not sure. I do not think it is really wong to look at but I would not say I consider it morally acceptable either. Kind of just view it as a bad habbit that nearly everyone has.
