Actually, I'm pretty sure that in Canada, the same ratings board that watches mainstream films, watches porn as well. Their job is to classify it as 18+, and flag any content that's too degrading.

I remember a newsmagazine show (maybe Undercurrents with Wendy Mesley) interviewing the members of the classification board. They all found endlessly watching porn, to be a particularly depressing form of Hell.
