Pornography and the American psyche

Is anyone else repelled by the plethora of "reality" porn sites on the Internet in which women are picked up, coerced into having sex, and then are humiliated in some way. What does this say about the American soul (though I am sure there are plenty of viewers outside the U.S.), since it is the USA from where these sites originate?

"We should be afraid of government forces interested in repressing sexual expression. But we also should be afraid of the influence of misogynist pornography. These two fears are not mutually exclusive and can co-exist. Our fear of the former shouldn't stop us from critiquing the latter. " - Dr. Chyng Sun
