I'm pretty sure there's a page in the marine handbook that talks about using masturbation and porn in general if you're feeling suicidal.
Contemporary porn is trashy, and I don't mean that in a puritan way, I mean it in the overall feel and themes of it. It's not a surprise that it attracts trashy people as its stars and not Victoria's Secret models.It's amazing that we have the technology to have thousands of porn videos sent directly to your phone in real time, yet 99% of women in porn look like total dogshit with tattoos, piercings, cut marks and either methed-out skeletons or slam-whale figures.
How did (((they))) manage to fuck up showing hot chicks to horny dudes?
Jesus it's only going more extreme, now being young and not a whale is unrealistic standard. Just don't ask women what their ideal partner.Body image and the beauty myth
Many pornographic films promote an unrealistic image of “beauty” by portraying very ‘slim’ and very ‘young’ people. Some advocates worry that this may contribute to low self-esteem, especially among women, or cause people to have unrealistic expectations of their sexual partners.
Ah yes, Playboy, which published images of nude 11 year olds.In all honesty I'd rather my future sons sneak away a Playboy to oogle some model that's been photographed in a tasteful way instead of their first exposure being some ultra hardcore BDSM video on PornHub or xhamster.
I think another important factor is shaming and silencing sexuality in puberty. If you're taught sex is a dirty thing and not to talk about it, you will turn to porn on the internet to teach you, and you become dependent on it.Anyways, excessive use of porn is what you get when push the regular age of marriage to late 20's.
My point from nine months ago was that softcore is less damaging than hardcore. Less damaging still implies that it's bad.Ah yes, Playboy, which published images of nude 11 year olds.
For those who aren't aware, I'd like to point out that crack cocaine is healthier than Krokodil.

Besides, smutty magazines also have articles and typically an interview with the featured models.
Playboy had a Dutch court case where they accused an american academic of slander when she said on a Dutch tv program that Playboy had published multiple CP images over the years, of both underage naked models and drawn children in sexual/incest situations.Ah yes, Playboy, which published images of nude 11 year olds.

And then there's the magazine of that wonderful free speech hero, Larry Flynt.. which didn't even stop publishing 'Chester the Molester' comics when the 'artist' was in prison for molesting his daughter.Playboy had a Dutch court case where they accused an american academic of slander when she said on a Dutch tv program that Playboy had published multiple CP images over the years, of both underage naked models and drawn children in sexual/incest situations.
The courts ended up giving playboy a verdict, that yes, copyright had been broken when the tv program showed three playboy covers, but that all the other claims were completely factual and that the evidence was overwhelming for the incest/underage claim.

The problem I think isnt neccesarily the consumption of porn, it's the production of porn, and the fact any legislation to possibly protect its workers can drive underground. If I remember correctly I think California passed a regulation that made it mandatory to use condoms in porn; as a result because of the regulation business moved to states that didn't have it. Therefore rendering the point moot. I'm all for regulation as porn should be accessible produced ethically consensually and in a manner that protects the worker from risks. :/ right now only states dictate regulations, w/o federal regulations porn will never be guaranteed to be ethically produced. This isnt like meat where your choice only affects your conscience.Porn is a slippery slope. On the one hand, it is easy to go after gemraphic, explicit sexual depictions. But on the other hand, nudism stuff and written erotica are another story in themselves. It's the whole artistic merit debate. Even today where porn is legal, there are still explicit requirements for it.
For one, you have to be at least 18 years of age to be in a pornographic picture or film, otherwise it'll be deemed child pornography. As for kinks, there are certain categories of porn that exist that are also prohibited. Such as animal crush (outlawed in 2010), "obscenity" in some cases, now bestiality, and snuff pornography. As for the last part, many people believe it doesn't exist, but history has shown us time and time again that there are plenty of sickos out there.
Other than that, you also have strict age requirements for viewing which has pushed more websites towards paywalled stuff that isn't user-generated, so that CP isn't posted nor can those little kiddies look at it. So despite porn being so popular in American society now, it still remains the most highly regulated form of speech there is.

You could ban porn produced out the country, especially given that certain countries have a low age of consent as well and or lack the teeth to regulate cp theres always a risk cp would be found on porn hub. I mean shit japan didnt criminalize cp until fairly recently, so even still if you want porn sites to be accessible in the usa it should be a requirement that all porn for usa consumption to be produced in the usa and be audited frequently to ensure compliance. With only certain outside based companies allowed that is willing to contract on our terms.I mean, even if the federal government regulated it, the industry would just move out of the country.

The problem is an overall lack of government oversight like in regular work. We have osha to ensure work place safety, I cant see why they simply can't extend that into the porn industry. If Americans view porn than that porn should be subject to our laws, or it should be banned. Countries ban shit all the time I dont see why we cant do that if its blatantly obvious that big porn wont regulate on their own.
You misread, I said ban overseas production on porn. Netflix has implementations to limit what a consumer may view based off geographical data on the user account. It netflix can greylock like that, I dont see why it isnt possible for major porn site can do it. Simply put if Americans want to consume porn there should be a way to ensure what they are consuming is legal an ethical.First of all, you are talking about banning porn on the internet. It would be impossible to implement and unenforceable. The federal government doesn't have the mechanisms, power, or the will to do that. Any blanket attempt to ban porn would probably run into legal scrutiny and end up in the courts. It would be just the case to finally get the Supreme Court to overturn the increasingly irrelevant and embattled obscenity laws that U.S. has and never uses. And as I said, the federal government is never going to waste time implementing a blanket ban on porn. No party has the political capital to attempt something like that. There are already people in government (like Kamala Harris) talking about decriminalizing or legalizing prostitution. You think they are going to 180 and attempt to ban porn?
