Chuang Hui-chiu, editor-in-chief of Living Psychology magazine, believes that if human desire is divided between the public and private realms, as in "pornography" in the public realm and "erotica" in the private realm, then the commercial consumption spurred by Taiwan's economic growth has sped up liberation in these two realms.
張老師月刊總編輯莊慧秋也認為，如果將人的慾望區分為公領域的「色情」與私領域的「情色」兩個面向，台灣經濟成長所帶動的商品消費，同時使得這兩個領域的解嚴腳步加快。
