Contary to your narrow, bigoted beliefs, we're not sitting here "talking about porn." We're engaging in a pertinent discussion concerning Jenna Jameson's role in contemporary American pornology, thank you very much!

penology

Penology is a section of criminology that deals with the philosophy and practice of various societies in their attempts to repress criminal activities, and satisfy public opinion via an appropriate treatment regime for persons convicted of criminal offenses.

Penology is concerned with the effectiveness of those social processes devised and adopted for the prevention of crime, via the repression or inhibition of criminal intent via the fear of punishment. The study of penology therefore deals with the treatment of prisoners and the subsequent rehabilitation of convicted criminals. It also encompasses aspects of probation (rehabilitation of offenders in the community) as well as penitentiary science relating to the secure detention and retraining of offenders committed to secure institutions.
Penology concerns many topics and theories, including those concerning prisons (prison reform, prisoner abuse, prisoners' rights, and recidivism), as well as theories of the purposes of punishment (deterrence, retribution, incapacitation and rehabilitation). Contemporary penology concerns itself mainly with criminal rehabilitation and prison management. The word seldom applies to theories and practices of punishment in less formal environments such as parenting, school and workplace correctional measures.

Pimpology

pimpology refers to the state of the art of understanding the female psyche to the point of being able to "pimp" them, and that the man ( or woman ) with the ability to control and manipulate a woman through her choice of prostitution is one who has a degree in pimpology.

The philology and etymology of the psychology of pimpology, which more often than not is a soliloquy between the supposed pimpologist and their idealized personality:
This phrase references a time when blacks and others in America were denied formal education and thusly making money was hard scrabble, yet a form of higher learning in its own right, yet working class and poor cultures are seldom afforded degrees or honors of any kind, and thus the word pimp added to ology makes the word pimpology, as a counterbalance to the formal education degrees and studies of " psychology" or "entymology", or "biology" , etc.
When explaining the pedigree of ones pimpology the old school code was to tell where one is from by noting in explanation where one got ones degree, which was a signifier of social status, and also the depth of ones pimp studies:
i.e. if one got their pimpology from somewhere in George Bush's Texas,or Dubuque, Iowa, it was a bogus degree, because the ignorance and racism that permeates that culture does not allow for a deep understanding of women, whereas if one got their degree in Chicago Illinois like Flood did, then it is a highly prized degree, because the windy city is a fertile and competitive training ground for hard knocks, and serious pimpology.
" Man you really macked the shit out of that bitch, she gave you some mad cash! Where did you get your degree?"
" I got my degree in pimpology at the University of Chicago."
