2. They would also say that Meg Ryan's "orgasm"
in "When Harry Met Sally" is porn as well.

11. The thing about "porn" is that nobody has ever been able to define it.

14. This link is especially relevant here...
In 1964, Justice Potter Stewart tried to explain "hard-core" pornography, or what is obscene, by saying, "I shall not today attempt further to define the kinds of material I understand to be embraced . . . but I know it when I see it . . . "<1>

13. Wow... That's a tough question.
It is, and yet it isn't...

I'm afraid we have a conundrum.

19. Nope.
It's interesting and sexually-themed but so are a number of magazines, websites and blogs that nobody would classify as porn.
