Porn, or Erotica?

While we're on the subject...

Can anyone explain to me the difference
between "Porn" and "Erotica"?

In Politically Correct speech,
"Porn" is bad and "Erotica" is good:
E.g. porn exploits women, whereas
erotica is protected free speech.
But how do you tell one from the other?

I ask this question somewhat ironically,
but I'd love to hear a serious answer.
