Uhm,
Ah,
My attitude towards porn doesn't come from lack of exposure, experience or hearing the 'this is the way men think' lecture.
Quite the opposite. My exposure started way sooner than it should, and now, I feel tremendous pity for the starlets....cuz there but for the grace of god....
The lesson that was drilled into me wasn't healthy and it was destructive. So yeah, maybe some men are 'wired' that way....
I just see molested little girls with destroyed sense of worth and so much self hatred they're committing spiritual suicide...on camera.
And yeah, part of what was drilled into me was that the 'girls that make men horny are the only ones with value'.
So again,
Looking hurts....Not so much from insecurity, but knowing that things are being triggered that are ugly and attention is again being given away for sex.
Amen sister.
You know...corporations spend billions on advertising because they know what everyone know....images do affect people and their behavior. If they didn't, they would spend that money on something else.
And yet we're expected to believe images through porn don't affect people's behavior?
Tell that to the sexually abused, rape victims, and kidnapping/murder victims who suffer at the hands of porn addicts.
Porn rots the mind and the soul.
Hi again:
Forgive me, but I don't think you're talking about normal, average guys. I think this conversation has drifted.
It is bad, wrong, evil of anyone to in any way approach a child in any inapproapriate way. I have 2 kids. I can't express strongly enough how much I agree with you on that point.
But we were talking about average husbands on their PCs some evenings. That is not going to lead to child abuse.
Maybe we should let this conversation be, perhaps chat about it in another thread some time? It's been fun, enlightening. Given me much to think about.
