6. Whenever I hear someone get holier-than-thou about porn...

I tell them "don't like it, don't watch it. That works for me." I don't like porn and haven't watched any in probably 20 years, but I can't stand people who think they are entitled to tell consenting adults what to do or watch in privacy.

An interesting excerpt from the article:

“With porn,” Weeks argues, “everything is on my terms. I can say no whenever I want to. I can do what I want to. I can do what I don’t want to. I’m in control. I like the assertive, passionate person that I’m becoming because of porn.”
