Naked ambition

This article talks about how Iceland is trying to ban pornography and the steps it has already taken, like banning strip-clubs and prostitution.There are certain benefits to this like the police claims that law would be easier to enforce if such activities are totally banned. I think its a controversial issue but it will probably lead to expansion of black market operations in Iceland.

  1. An Interesting article. I agree with you that the black market operations would expand, but prostitution and strip-clubs have destroyed the lives of many many women; there are many accounts of female trafficking and I think that the increase in the black market won't be as big as the decrease in overall trafficking etc.
