Boys under-18 being exposed to pornographic material is the most unspoken problem in our society & we got adult girls here profiting off of that.
Unbelievable.
I don't know why this isn't getting the attention that it should.
We are witnessing pedophilic adult females groom young boys & getting paid for it.
Something's not right when we permit these things.
Porn, even without capitalist exploitation, can be harmful to how adolescents view sexual relationships and acts. I don't think there's a solution that can have success without quality, accessible education about sex being available from the early onset of puberty.
Sure. Regulating adolescent access should happen too. Requiring real age verification via credit card used to be common practice in the earlier internet until the entire industry switched to a simple "Are you over 18?" and literally nobody called them out for it.
I don't necessarily think "porn can be harmful to how adolescents view sexual acts" is a completed thought either though. Porn as is currently common is, porn with healthier perspectives on relationships however may be quite different. The issue I think is that porn currently just depicts a gratuitous sex act with no before/after and no concept of how that fits into a healthy relationship, this teaches children a very unhealthy perspective of the act. Not to mention the vast majority being deeply degrading to the women pictured. That's not to say that I think degradation porn shouldn't be a thing either though, people will still want it and have that kink for a long time until we identify the environmental factors creating it, but we should require kink-porn to have a healthy perspective of how that fits into a mutually trusting bdsm relationship.
Porn needs a ratings and regulatory board just like movies have but for the content of the porn itself.
