Sex is a very psychological act, porn is mostly about power play.

In most porn you don't get to see much from the female perspective and her desires, they're reduced to animals who can't think or themselves. You usually go from one act to the next in an instant without a woman consent.

It can give the wrong impression, especially since a lot of it isn't realistic.

In all seriousness porn is fucking cancer in every sense of the word, it should be just outright fucking banned, it serves no purpose but to give young men erectile dysfunction, fucked up fetishes and unrealistic expectations of women.

Everyone says porn gives you an unrealistic interpretation of sex and I agree, but if I didn't watch porn before I lost my virginity I would have fucked up, you learn some techniques and shit. It helped me act more dominate in bed, something most women love. Don't be watching it 2 hours a day, but I don't think it's bad in moderation.

I'd say it benefits society. For example, I strongly suspect there is a direct relationship between decrease in the rape rates and wider availability of porn in the recent decades.

I like how there are some puritanical dinosaurs who so hate how the modern world no longer mirrors their personal morality that they yearn to throw people in jail/prison over smut. Would you sic the police on a tumblr artist who draws their own material? What about erotic fanfiction writers, will they be punished too in your ideal world?

If you hate porn so much, there are plenty of countries out there that ban it, so why not move to one of them?

>>2413634
in all seriousness- no memeing or "muh degeneracy" - I think it is. heres my argument:

Society has been built on ambitious young men trying to make their mark in the world and, of course, reproduce.

Porn kills that impetus, partly, and provides a release of testosterone which makes for a complacent and un-ambitious civilization.

>>2414284
LESS TALKING MORE RAIDING

Yes. Sex is the sacred act between husband and wife.

By watching porn, you are desensitizing yourself to degeneracy.

Yes.

>>2413634
Porn is basically watching a woman you feel attracted to getting fucked by another man without being able feel her

In other words, porn makes you think that being a cuckold is acceptable

Porn made me realize how sex can be commodified and made cheap, and ultimately diminished my libido.

Alternately, it showed me how much more important and priceless Platonic love, that for the mind, truly is.

No, I'm saying it's likely taxed just like any other business, but creating a tax specifically for pornography might be unconstitutional by dint of targeting it for its particular brand of expression.

>>2415218
>, but if I didn't watch porn before I lost my virginity I would have fucked up, you learn some techniques and shit.
A load of bullshit. Porn teaches you to try and thrust as hard as possible as fast as possible for as long as possible. Which makes you get tired quickly in an awkward position and lose your boner.

>and ultimately diminished my libido.

I agree, but this is the weakest criticism I see of it. I jerk off often. I can bring myself to orgasm easily with or without a partner, and regardless of how much porn I watch or masturbation I've done.

I've tried nofap/noporn and stuff before and I just get horny and even more distracted. Still whenever I go a few days (3-4) without masturbating I feel a lot more energetic and less compulsive. But I've never found the libido stuff to be near to true, though you guys probably watch really intense porn, judging by /gif/.

George Carlin (1937-2008)

I don’t understand why prostitution is illegal. Selling is legal. Fucking is legal. Why isn’t selling fucking legal? You know, why should it be illegal to sell something that’s perfectly legal to give away?

The argument against pornography is an ethical one, there is no sound argument to support an industry that is rife with drug abuse and human trafficking other than "muh liberty", which stems from a hedonistic world view that created this age of selfishness and instant gratification that we live in today.

Psychology cannot be rightly called a science because its methodology is subjective and influenced by ideology more than a desire to ascertain truth.

>Psychology cannot be rightly called a science because its methodology is subjective and influenced by ideology more than a desire to ascertain truth.
stopped reading right there

>>2416213
You stopped reading right at the end? That's to be expected m8

Psychology is most definitely not a science in the sense that biology, chemistry, and physics are sciences. The empirical evidence in psychology is based off of subjective testimony and is easily influenced by ideology. e.g. lgbt propaganda, SSRIs that may or may not make you want to kill yourself, frequent "discovery" of mental disorders based off subjective testimony.

No, more like society is harming porn.

>>2416121
Someone who has sex daily likely goes out and actually meets women, shows them his success in order to get sex.
And once he has one she'll demand ambition from him.

This is part of why I read my erotica. Only the kind that has fleshed out characters and settings as well. I want to care about the act as much as the characters do. It's a much more immersive experience.

Because commodifying something (make it tradeable and therefore subject to market forces) is not necessarily a good idea for everything.
