Language is indeed something of the people. We create it, shape it, use it, and manipulate it. Every day we choose words to use. Often, we're presented with new words, and soon enough the new word becomes part of our common usage. It happens all the time.

We simply disagree on this one.

How would you propose to do that?
And, by doing that, aren't we really just saying the equivalent of : "Yes, they're part of our industry, but *I* don't do that, *I* am not one of
them. It's really just an aberrant group of people who do that. The rest of us are good, clean honest pornographers.... really."
