I don't necessarily agree with this definition of porn from a dictionary perspective. As an accomplished attorney and judge, doubtless Oaks understands the literal definition as well. He, and I assume the CB poster, are trying to make a broader point.

My guess is Oak's point was there are some skanky thinking men out there and dress modest so their skanky thoughts don't turn to you.

I guess we should protect those gals on the billboards against people who might see them and think in a porn way.
