Porn and Baby Dumping in Malaysia

Just found this in the local news:



472 babies dumped since 2005 - that is close to 100 a year!!!

I'd say that this number will continue to go up as long as people are coming up with moronic excuses such as blaming porn. Most (if not all) European countries have free and unlimited access to porn, and most European countries are significantly larger than Malaysia and yet I doubt that any European countries have this many incidents of baby dumping (in fact - do a Google search for "baby dumping in UK" and most of the search results will be about this problem in Malaysia, Nigeria and Zimbabwe - does a trend emerge here?).

So perhaps the reason is in fact NOT porn. Perhaps the reason is exactly the opposite. Perhaps the reason is an oppressive society that does not allow their youngsters to develop a healthy and relaxed attitude to sexuality. Perhaps the reason is that 17 year old girls who get pregnant have no access to abortion and no support or help from society so they are forced to give birth in secret.  Perhaps the reason is lack of proper education.

Fact - whether Malaysia like it or not - is that pornography can NOT be blamed for the high number of baby dumpings or indeed the high number of rapes (that is often mentioned too).  I am not going to argue if pornography is good taste or not, only that countries with free access to porn - being European or Asian (Japan) has got significantly lower rates  of rape and baby dumping.
