There are a lot of porn defenders in this thread. Though I don't think it's the bogeyman that pinkie does- I think a lot of people are kidding themselves about the effect it has on themselves and those around them.


I don't think it's a matter of delusion as much as it is trying to put things into perspective. Anti-porn people tend to think that porn is the fall of civilization, which is much more delusional.

Ultimately, porn is related to masturbation, and that's also something that the prudes among us have always had a problem with. People watch porn to help them masturbate. The prudes—who for some reason think it's their business to know and their place to say—can't stand people “abusing themselves” with masturbation.

There have, and always will, be the Lucy Van Pelts among us who think it is their job to criticise everyone around them and tell us how to live.
