I think if you were to sever the connection between arousal and shame, you might actually come up with something liberating and socially useful. it might be healthier for us, and lead to a situation such as they enjoy in holland, denmark, or spain, where they have pornography all over the place - quite hardcore pornography - but they do not have anywhere the incidence of sex crimes.

More From Alan Moore

Crimes were committed to punish crimes, and crimes were committed to prevent crimes. the world has been filled with prisons and dungeons, with chains and whips, with crosses and gibbets, with thumbscrews and racks, with hangmen and heads-men — and yet these frightful means and instrumentalities have committed far more crimes than they have prevented.... ignorance, filth, and poverty are the missionaries of crime. as long as dishonorable success outranks honest effort — as long as society bows and cringes before the great thieves, there will be little ones enough to fill the jails.
