Introduction
Pornography is a visual representation of sexuality which distorts an
individual's concept of the nature of conjugal relations and it comes in the form of
magazines,movies, videos and more. It is the depiction of sexual behavior that is
intended to arouse sexual excitement in its audience.
Business is the organized effort of individuals to produce and sell, for a profit,the goods

society. It contains a service,product or good.
Teenager widelt used to describe an age group between childhood and adulthood.
Generally, the accepted ages for teen or teenager are 13 to 19 years of age. The teen
years are a time of transition from becoming a dependent child to a young adult who is
capable of taking care of themselves. During this stage of transitional physical and
mental human development. Teens tend to seek indepence and experiment with adult
behavior.
But how this three words related to each other? How does pornography affects the
attitude of teenagers? How does pornography involves in a business.
It is highly likely that porn appeared on the early days of the human history. Researchers
discovered rock paintings demonstrating coitus between ancient people together with
petrogliphs showing hunting people. It is not clear if that was porn or not, but those
drawings could not be considered erotic as they were done in a primitive and dirty
manner. To tell the truth, little has considerably changed since that time, and people still
can not tell the difference between pornography and erotica, to tell what is allowed for
demonstration in public and what is not.
First documented porn pictures were printed in oriental manuals of sex, Kama Sutra was
the most popular one among them. The Hindu feared that the paper works would not
survive and decorated the temples of Kajuharo with bas-reliefs of numerous figurines of
people having sex. Contemporaries need to be absolute virtuosos in case they want to
make love using the positions that decorate the temple.
The word porn meaning indecent pictures or depiction of whores came from Greeks
who painted such frescos on the walls of their brothels. In a word, such pictures were
wonderful advertising of homes where women sold their love to Greeks for money.
