Lots of hotlinks, data and other facts at the source. One other interesting note from the article is the conclusion...

Between 2009 and 2010, erotic content accounted for roughly 13 percent of all Internet searches, according to Forbes. In addition, a 2008 study found that nearly 90 percent of men think it's acceptable. It might be time to dive a bit deeper into how the societal shift is influencing things happening beyond all the closed doors.

People aren’t getting married these days because of financial reason

At best, I would consider porn’s role a fringe contributor. The main problem is the destruction of family and marriage as they have been traditionally defined.

Did ya ever think the reason people aren’t getting married is because of the way they have been brought up?

Like a family going to church every Sunday, reading the Bible, talking around the Dinner Table every night about what each of us are doing and did that day?

Like going to relatives homes for vacations, and learning about the different parts of the country?

Oh yes, I forgot, people are way to busy now days to do any of that, they have sports, and jobs and have to run here to do this or run there to do that....sorry I guess my life was just boring to you folks....

We are 100 years away from synthetic AI-robots who will be able to fulfill all functions of a ‘partner’. This question of marriages today....will be discussed at a much higher level when you have a gal who prefers the company of her AI-companion “Daniel” who looks remarkably like Clark Gable, with a blended sense of humor between Don Rickles and Eddie Murphy. Why stop her when she wants the marriage license for such a partner?

Yes, all those guys at the SEC studying porn for 6-8 hours a day, you didn’t know they were actually conducting a study.

Modern socialist feminism wanted to Smash the Patriarchy and Smash Monogamy. This is the result, no male in the house.

Marriage is legally very risky for a successful male.

The entire legal system is set against them.

I'm not so sure I buy into the porn=single proposition... yeah, I get that's simplified... but I will say this.

As the father of a teen son, I have learned that it is shockingly available and much more graphic than it was in my day.

I'm of the generation when a Playboy magazine was big news among the neighborhood boys. Photos of bare breasts!

Nowadays, it's high-def video that leaves no detail to the imagination, and it's available through computers, phones, video game devices, etc.

Something is lost when the mystery is removed.

I think it’s a combination of:
1. TOO EXPENSIVE.
2. My girlfriend puts out, so why marry?
3. Fear of divorce.
4. Gays can marry, so marry doesn’t mean anything.

Part, yes, but they’re being taught not to get married, too. It’s part of the attack on traditional values and mores.

Yes, let’s ignore 50 years of extremist feminists poisoning the well and stacking family courts against men, to the point where young men are afraid to get married and have kids.

I’m not married, and I don’t intend to get married.

I don’t give a crap about porn.

I don’t want to be married, because I enjoy my freedom. I like doing what I want, when I want, for however long I want, and I don’t feel like having to explain myself to anyone. I don’t want to have to ask for permission, I do not want to be a domesticated two-headed male.

I also do not want to make myself subject to the divorce laws of this country.

Pornography treats people as mere objects to be used for our own selfish
gratification. Pornography also destroys the meaning of true love. The Bible
is clear: “But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality,
or of any kind of impurity” (Ephesians 5:3).

Never forget that what goes on in our minds eventually influences the way we
act. Jesus warned, “I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has
already committed adultery with her in his heart”
(Matthew 5:28).

Make it your goal to keep your mind pure, as well as your
body.

- Billy Graham

...pronounced decline in percentage of young adult males who are married...

Well if the women are still getting married and the men aren't, I think I've discovered the real problem.

It’s called MGTOW. Pornography isn’t what’s causing it.

More men are getting sick of being suckers for women, and are checking out.

A young man meets women in a couple places. One, church, the other, school. The church attender will most likely get married but they are a dwindling breed. A young man on college campus would be an absolute fool to even acknowledge a young woman on campus. They have criminalized being a man. The young men are confused and socially awkward and find their cravings for companionship through internet games and ravings for sex through porn. Who can blame them?
