One Lucky Student Can Get $25,000 College Scholarship for Answering Single Question

Pornhub. com, one of the world's most-viewed pornography Web sites is offering a college scholarship worth $25,000. Applicants will be judged on the answer to a question: 'How do you strive to make others happy?'

The web site has even started to accept the submissions for the scholarships as part of the site's expanded philanthropic efforts. "We work hard to help make millions of people feel happy every single day. In turn, we would like to help support the recipient of the first annual Pornhub Cares Scholarship to realize their goal of doing the same", according to the scholarship Web site.

The scholarship announced by the a prominent porn site immediately attracted fire from the feminism activist groups, which said they have concerns that the campaign is a thinly veiled ploy to exploit young women who are struggling to pay the rising costs of higher education.

Dawn Hawkins, executive director of the National Center on Sexual Exploitation, called the scholarship as an amazing and deceptive marketing tactic, aiming at vulnerable cash-strapped college students.

He further said that a lot of younger people do not realize the consequences and harm of pornography. These videos follow them for the rest of their lives and affect their jobs and relationships in the future. It is really unfortunate that we are forcing our kids to sell their bodies to get an education.

Corey Price, vice president of Pornhub, acknowledged that the scholarship could be considered controversial, as pornography's rampant spread across the Internet has long drawn debate about its role in society and how people view women.
