I saw a video on here somewhere recently where a man was talking about why he doesn't watch porn any more. It was really wonderful, I think he really got to the essence of the problem. The thread title was "why I don't watch porn any more" or something close to it. Very insightful.
There's definitely something to be said about being affected by what you watch and take in. No doubt about it. Honestly, I don't think I could be with a man who would watch something like that, and I'm no prude, but there's exploitation going on and that type of porn depicts degradation of women. I have seen one clip of something where the man forced himself on the woman and forced anal and it did not look like she was enjoying it or wanted it. It seemed very much like she did not want to do it and not because she's an Oscar caliber actress. That's the problem. There's too much reality in those.
I don't know, but it sure seems these days young men/boys have a lot less respect for females and personally I think it's because of all the hard core porn they can find and see on the internet.
