The contrast between pornography and beauty

I just want to reiterate why I dislike pornography :P there is something about it that is very ugly. You take, for example, a film like La Belle Noiseuse, it is the complete opposite of pornography. There is something inherently beautiful about the movie. Yes, there is a certain degree of eroticity (is that a word?) in the fact that the incredibly beautiful Emmanuelle Beart spends most of the film naked (she is posing for an artist). But it is more like a celebration of the beauty of the female body, not unlike some of the works of the great artists. And it's a damn good movie as well. It was actually sort of nice that the movie didn't contain any sex, and the characters generally behaved respectfully to each other. Unrealistic? It doesn't have to be. Compare this with pornography, which is sick, treats women like objects, presents a disturbing view of humanity and is, in my occasionally humble opinion, quite un-appealing. I don't know about other guys, but I don't find a girl sucking a guy off even remotely exciting. In fact I'm going to side with the christian conservatives here, I think porn is something that has the potential of destroying much of the joy of sex. It reduces it from an act of love to a meaningless act that makes you feel good... not unlike drug-taking. Anyway I've ranted enough now, I'd be interested to hear other's views on this :)
