Blog assignment #5

Obscenity, pornography and indecency: What are the differences between these terms? 

In my notion, all three terms relate to each other, but in different context and background.  The first term obscenity means the act of behaving in an offensive and inappropriate way. Pornography is the depiction of sexually explicit pictures, photos, videos, and movies (www.choicesaz.org/resources/glossary/). Indecency is an impolite or improper act; in other words, the state or degree of being disrespectful, which can be expressed in words (en.wiktionary.org/wiki/indecency).
