Actually the definition of "pornography" is whatever the community currently
mean by "pornography".  And that doesn't include things that the community
currently *doesn't* mean by "pornography"

Definitions aren't absolutes, nor is there an Oxford-dictatorship of words.

Current usage is what matters, and in current usage "pornography" means girl
with donkey, and two men ... , and you all know exactly what I mean without
needing me to spell it out.
 
Which precisely illustrates my point.

It doesn't mean cricket matches on TV.
