Porn is evil and abuses innocent women. Men who use women for porn are depraved low life citizens.


What about women who want to be in porn?or those who enjoy watching it? Are we too abused?
Any man who genuinely think women in porn are what normal women look like are totally retarded.


Like when men say "when women wear make up they're basically lying to us"

The best response is "I don't know why I'm being blamed for me being stupid enough to think I actually have gold eyelids"

Same goes for porn stars.

Sorry :/ I know this is hard to hear.
I personally don't think so. People tend to have a nice dissociation in place: those in pornography aren't real :tongue: Not sure if you would function too well if you generalised from such things to daily life.
Tried to think of an analogy... but failed.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again:

No good has ever come from having standards.


I'm waaaaaay ahead of you there.

The same could be said for religion.

Then it lowers your standards in plumbers, pool cleaners, and pizza delivery men.
Porn gives unrealistic expectations to both men and women.

I don't have a problem with porn if it's taken for what it is- fantasy.

It's when people transfer those expectations to real life that it becomes an issue.

And then of course there are a whole host of feminist issues related to porn- a lot of women choose to work in the sex industry (which is great!), but a lot don't. And of course now the new UK porn regulations have banned some stupid things, female ejaculation being one of them. Good job, government.

And I think it speaks volumes that the most watched porn category is teen porn- the fetishisation of young girls is not an ok thing to perpetuate.

OfCourse. I'm basing this purely on porn stars. Amateur is actually better porn imo however I don't think that frequently makes it into playboy

Watching porn lowers your standards in sex. If I was a sex doctor (do those exist?) I would recommend one experienced sex addict to each porn addict. This cure is just magical. :daydreaming:


Not true, people who watch porn have unrealistic expectations of sex not the other way round

I thought it raised standards to something un-natural and impossible? E.g a guy watches porn and then thinks every woman he sleeps with should be skinny, long blonde hair, massive boobs, perfect 'downstairs' and happy to do whatever he asks?


Thats what I thought

So which one are you? :tongue:
I do get what you mean. By watching porn you may be more prone to recite fantasies and previously watched porn so therefore the women need not be unattractive per se but men with higher expectations will find that woman more attractive if he has fantasies to place her in. Do you get what I mean? Also by watching porn you may find that you start seeing things attractive that you never used to or never thought you did like for example, pubic hair. So yes I agree with this statement.
Watching porn makes you realose you are bot good enoigh for your woman and she WILL leave you for the alpha eventually!
