DallasCowboys Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 My question pertains to pornography and the Objectivist stance on it. For what I gather the idea is to do things out of self interest which watching porn would be, however, watching porn is purely body and doesn't seem to involve the mind though I may be wrong, and Ayn Rand doesn't believe in the split between mind and body, there in lies my question.

JASKN Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 In what way is porn a "split" between mind and body? Porn actors are obviously people with minds of their own, you have a mind, both you and them have a sex drive... What specifically do you mean?
