“pornography”, presumably meaning the depiction of sexual acts, has literally been around since the first cave drawings were made ... sexual acts have been depicted in every society and every media since then ... declaring a “scientific” war to ending “pornography” is EXACTLY like declaring a “scientific” war on ending “climate change” ...

idiocy....to compare cave drawings to todays full frontal pornagraphy available to EVERYONE and ANYONE....

blanket statement.....we live in insanely paganistic days where self satisfaction is the only god of a large majority of people....

don't touch my weed...

don't touch my porn, its the only sex I can do...

don't ever touch my opioids for my horrible horrible painful knee

just don't make me give up anything and don't make me try to be a God fearing, commandment obeying Christian.....

our forefathers predicted that our govt was only for a good and moral people or else it would fail...

well we ain't a good people and we ain't moral....

Khrushchev promised us that America would basically be conquered by its own behavior.....

Yes. Romance is about lust. Love is what a person gives to another, and what should be mutual between a couple.

True. Sugar, starch, lust, drugs, zombie grooming, tattoos and more ways to impulsively indulge. Three generations of ugly choices in mates (bad boys). Look at the effects all around us. Those of us who’ve lived long enough to see the transition can see the extreme contrast.

The porn problem has not been specific to men for a couple of generations. It’s even more common between young women now in their workplaces, and young virgins are brainwashed and pushed really hard by the experienced whores to get them...well, physically desensitized and scarred. Women who do it are simply less likely to want men to find out about it.

People who have risked their lives to extricate young women from attempts to drug them and force them into human trafficking and cared enough to listen has seen these things. How many of you know that some women have been literally, physically, eviscerated as a result of being abused by such covens of drug dealing witches (criminals, sometimes officious ones) and special men (criminals) chosen by the gangs of criminal women for doing just that?

It can happen. It’s a documented medical fact. Girls, don’t get with those freaks that other girls are pushing you to get with. Each of you find a good man first. You’ll physically adapt to him just fine.

[Little grammar correction. People who have risked their lives to extricate young women from attempts to drug them and force them into human trafficking and cared enough to listen have seen these things.]

I’ll make something a little more clear. Some healthy women have had their intestines come out as a result of a posterior fornix rupture.

A friend once said his wife whipped the bathroom door open. With a playboy in one hand he looked up and said “I was just thinking about you hun.”

“The increased demand for porn is driven by large-scale changes in female behavior.”

Now there’s an interesting comment.

Which changes are those?

Eschewing motherhood and purity in favor of career-chasing and hyperpromiscuity.

The amount of respect men have for the latter set is zero, which is the precise amount of respect for women it takes not to be bothered by porn.

I'd change the STD testing to monthly.

While I agree with the 21 year old age requirement, people will find a way around that one to view porn.

If the .xxx domain could be implemented it'd make it a little easier to block those websites.

To identify the problem one has to first define the problem.

What is porn?

A degree of porn is now very common in movies. I'd argue any form of nudity is a degree of porn.

This would include the gratuitous nudity found in a lot of PG movies.

Most people would not define that as porn instead thinking of the more hardcore stuff.

Many so called mainstream movies are a very low key form of porn.

The problem is far more pervasive than people think.

Porn has now become mainstream. It has been "normalized". It is no longer taboo in society to view porn.

Part of this is a result of the sexual revolution in the late 60s and 70s.

The movie Deep Throat changed the perception of porn and helped to mainstream it.

You could end the pr0n epidemic, by destroying feminism, so women stayed virgins till marriage, got married young, and married men at their own level rather than riding the carousel until 35.

Not gonna happen 'till SMOD or the Chinese invade. Feminism is cultural ebola.

I think the porn addiction to free unlimited porn anywhere and everywhere is inherently going to be worse for boys, even though female participation has increased. I think social media is the most damaging to the young female brain. Just my personal observation. The amount of conflict that comes into these girls lives over social media is amazing, at least in my observation.

I kind of wonder what is going to happen when the generations that have only known these new conditions come into power. I can’t imagine anything positive.

Wasn’t there a heck of a lot more gratuitous nudity in movies from 2 or 3 decades ago than now? Seems like it to me anyhow. I’m not saying the new movies are more moral or anything. It’s probably a function of how ubiquitous actual porn has become and what it would take to actually titillate now with a marketable R rating vs. a potential fem-based backlash.

The entire premise of the article is absolutely ridiculous. Between monstrous income inequality between classes/genders, with 98% of the population working manual labor together on farms, to the lack of undergarments that essentially revealed everything underneath, to uni-sex outhouses and common wash areas, to farm animals, dogs and other domestic animals having sex anywhere/anytime, older societies were incredibly sexualized. If you'd like a reminder, go ahead and (re) Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. There isn't one story that isn't about cuckholding, cheating, raping, tricking, etc. in the entire volume.

Also, does anyone want to take a guess how long street lights have been around? Only 200 years - first gas, then electric. So, go ahead and try to picture in your mind just how dark cities were prior to that time - notwithstanding maybe a few torches here & there. Now, incorporate the cultural elements listed above. OK, all set? James Boswell - the author of the Life of Johnson - described being propositioned by a young 15 yo girl from an outer village in downtown London (1780) as he was walking home from a party. He thought about it for a moment, and then right there for the equivalent of maybe $5, not 10 yards off a main drag in front of a park, he & the girl did their thing.

This is the way sexual dynamics were from pre-history up until the Victorian age. It's not coincidental that the era of mores and prohibitions began once technology allowed police forces to control/illuminate public areas. As the author noted, it's deeply ingrained evolutionary behavior. The only thing different is the last 200 years which has taken mankind that long to get back to the free availability that existed beforehand.

Before welfare, girls in poverty had two choices: (a) convince a man with income to take her in, in exchange for her keeping him happy, or (b) starve.

Middle class women will NEVER go for cutting back on welfare, because they do not want competition for available desirable men.
