Abstract
How one judges an aspect of modern culture is really based upon their perspective. The perspective of an individual filters how the information received is understood. pornography is an area of modern culture that is hotly debated; however, these debates can never be resolved because they are all based on the critics' perspective. Better argued opinions are simply chosen as "more right," often subjectively. These perspectives are merely more aspects of modern culture. How can one area of culture be objectively understood through the perception of another area of culture? The goal of this paper is to show that pornographic culture should be viewed, not with culturally biased perceptions, but with a scientific perspective; specifically that of evolutionary psychology. Doing so will reveal pornography to be a product of, and outlet for, our biological predispositions.
