I didnt really know where To put this thread, so I put it here.Recently china stated they are going to ban porn further and that it corrupts the young mind, but my question you all of you is, what are your views on porn, do you think its bad or its perfectly fine to watch it, and why or why not.

Porn bad or fine?
-
Well,porn is something that's relative,if you have strong religious beliefs, of course you think it's distasteful, but the makers of it don't think that,the opinion differs with anyone,I think it's fine as long as you aren't in a serious relationship,because you shouldn't need porn if you really care about someoneThat's my view, in many countries, prostitution is even legalso it all depends on how you were raised and where you live

It has been a much-discussed question in the past, but there's not a lot of reliable hard data.Certainly some people can become addicted to porn at the expense of the rest of their lives, and for such people it has a bad effect. It also tends to be unrealistic, and therefore can mislead people about the way sex usually really works.Some people fear that it may get people worked up who then go off and rape someone, but evidence is weak. It may on the other hand act as a release and safety valve for some people.It is certainly a source of pleasure to many, which in itself is a good thing.

Porn is like any habit, if you have too much, then it definitely can be bad, but if you watch how much you watch, it shouldn't be harmfulLike Ineligible said, there has been a lot of debate over it,but if you are willing to watch,and the people are willing to do those things SO you can watch,then watch away.
-
I don't have any data to support this, but I feel that the overabundance of porn on the internet and ease of access to very young people can cause desensitization. Similar to the theory that violence on TV has desensitized the population.

How young? See with me I saw it when I was 10 years old due to my friends being 3 -4 years older, i didnt continue towatch until 12, and my lifestyle is perfectly fine, I have a social life, I play sports, I don't do drugs and all that, I'm not premiscous.
-
I think it's fine for kids if and only if they are mature enough to know that a lot of things in these vids aren't real and probably won't happen with them and isn't normal. And if they were looking at gay pornos, wouldn't that imply that they have gay tendencies anyways?
-
he wasnt saying its benificial, just fine, i started when i was rather young, you dont see me with messed up morals, i dont view women as objects, i know sex is nothing like that, so for me, it really is just fine. not harmful or benificial, just somethign to do
-
Then you are the exception to the rule, then. Generally speaking, porn isn't (and shouldn't) be for kids.
-
There are a lot of assertions but little evidence.I had a sheltered upbringing free of porn, but I am not convinced that did me any good at all.
-
Porn is bad.
I have years of frikkin addiction to prove it!
-
See alot of the times people are sayign exceptions, nearly every guy I know watches porn everyday or every week, personally I dont see anything wrong with it as long as it doesnt effect your total health.
-
***Damien' perspective...not speaking for everybody***I can tell you that I've never raped anyone, or even forced a girl to do something beyond her will. That being said, this addiction has affected my life in ways and in places that you wouldn't imagine. But that is the nature of addiction, not porn.For reasons stated by others, I believe porn does more harm than good, even when not an addiction.
-
I know some of that has to do with porn, like the fact that a condom isn't always used. But most of that is caused by mere stupidity and/or ignorance. Anyone mature (mentally) and smart shouldn't be someone who is going to allow ignorance on a topic give them a chance of fucking up their life. That's why I said they had to be mature.
