Talk:Views on lesbian porn

I have moved material on pornography here from the lesbian article. It is a separate topic, and (in addition to ongoing edit wars) there are serious, unresolved questions as to what the proper treatment of contemporary and historical pornography is for Wikipedia. In particular, there is ongoing controversy regarding the use of pornographic images to illustrate such articles. I am of two minds about this, and it is not my fight.

However, it is abundantly clear to me that such material does not belong in articles such as lesbian because it violates the Principle of least astonishment. Moreover, it may limit the readership of the lesbian article by people who either find sexually explicit imagery objectionable themselves or who may be viewing or editing the article in an environment where such imagery may be awkward if viewed by others.

Accordingly, I leave the content here, where others may continue the debate over what images, if any, to include.
