Abstract

Could it be ever morally incorrect for a customer to imagine one thing immoral? Brandon Cooke has argued so it can not be. On Cooke’s account, fictive imagining is resistant to ethical critique because such instances of imagining try not to add up to the consumer’s recommendation of this immoral content, nor do they mean that the writers of these fictions always endorse their contents. We argue against Cooke that in reality something that is fictively imagining is morally blameworthy for the customer, especially in instances where fictive imagining is involved with the solution of immoral desires. Taking one potent case particularly, rape-fantasy pornography we argue that the correct engagement with pornography requires the engagement for the consumer’s desires, and that customers usually build relationships works of pornography as an easy way of ‘trying on’ desires.
