Pornography: Bring It Into the Light

Seems like Kanye West is a hot topic. I’m old enough to say without embarrassment that my knowledge of him begins and ends with him being married to a Kardashian and his tussle with Taylor Swift. But a headline about him caught my eye a couple of days ago. I clicked through and discovered this:

“Playboy was my gateway into full-blown pornography addiction. My dad had a Playboy left out at age 5, and it’s affected almost every choice I made for the rest of my life,” West told Zane Lowe on Apple Music’s Beats 1 on Thursday. “From age 5, to now having to kick the habit. And it just presents itself in the open, like it’s OK. And I stand up and say, you know, it’s not OK.” (Source)

And that prompted me to write the blog post I never intended to write. I’d been reading about silence and wondering whether I really should be saying something about anything. And yet, I felt like something else needed to be said.
