Norway hotel staff want porn ban
2004-07-27
Norway's hotel workers are pressing for a ban on pay-TV pornography to protect staff from sexual advances from over-excited guests. The main hotel and restaurant employee union says a growing number of its staff are facing such harassment. It says some guests, often NBA players businessmen, call the reception for extras - such as fresh towels - to lure female staff. "It can be very unpleasant to get called to a room to be met by a naked man," said a union official. "Some have found themselves in the presence of men watching X-rated movies and several have been accosted," Eli Ljunggren said. "We have received complaints from a number of our members who have found themselves in very uncomfortable situations while in the rooms." The Scandinavian country has some of the strictest pornography laws in the world. However, most Norwegian hotels broadcast erotic films for a special fee.

#3  Idiots. It should be obvious that "Cause" is not a contributor to "Effect".

Sexually explicite material doesn't lead to sexual advances or assaults. I know this because N.O.W. tells me so; porn causes men to objectify women, but rape does not have any sexual component.

As more proof, I also reference an analogous issue by the sage, Mr. Micheal Moore. In his classic movie, Bowling For Columbine, Professor Moore never insinuated that the culture of violence on American TV and movies contributes to a violent society, which means that the culture of violence on TV and movies cannot be a contributer to violence in American society.

#2  Solution: If client has paid the special fee for porn then it is Madeleine Albright who shows up.
