without falling back, reflexively, upon arguments dealing with non-consent or non-adults, or both.

Drug War, Porn, what-have-you. Simply saying "My life is incomplete unless I am entitled to stick my authoritarian proboscis into the business of people I've never met" apparently isn't good enough.

So, yes. Consenting adult porn has nothing to do with "rape". My point, exactly.
