Porn rules! I believe it. 99% of the people I know watch porn, surf porn, or go to strip clubs.
I personally have tons of videos. Nothing wrong with watching porn with the wife. Our society makes a bigger deal about porn than they need to.
Child porn however needs to be shut the phuck down real quick. That's just unacceptable for those numbers to be that high. That means there's not enough being done about it.
As for kids accessing porn, it's nothing more than curiosity. My parents used to lock the playboy channel out when they would go out when I was 6. I would program it back in before they pulled the key from the box. I watched playboy all the time when I was a kid. I used to buy porn in school to from friends.
Watching porn and being curious about sexuality as a kid is not dangerous, and will not make your child permiscuous or a slut. It all comes down to education. School taught us about STD's and the dangers & risks associated with sex, plus I knew my parents would kill me if I got a girl pregnant. It scared me straight enough to be a virgin until I was 17.
So again you can't blame the porn industry for kids getting pregnant early, and exploring sexually at an early age. It all comes down to the education and parenting they recieve. The porn industry is a scapegoat for bad parents, and schools that don't do their jobs and educate!
