If you do anything often enough and long enough it will lead to addiction.

Well, that would depend upon your definition of often enough. Smoking, drugs, and drinking are chemically addictive and deserve a separate category. And work? I've worked for over 40 years. Am I addicted? I also shop frequently.

Let's not play naive here, OK? Pornography is a major problem since the internet became popular, and marriages are breaking up more and more because of it, and because of affairs from meeting people in chat rooms.

Children are in therapy at record levels, and younger ages, because of access to porn on computers. I heard a woman who is a children's therapist and some of the stuff she is seeing now is so horrific with respect to children masturbating at porn. They are addicted to the stuff. Sexual inuendos are everywhere and pulling our young children and young teens to it. The porn industry has moved from dark rooms, into their own AWARDS show on TV. A freaking porn star ran for GOVERNOR of California!!

Because it's so widely available and rammed down our throats as popular entertainment (no pun intended), we are seeing more and more people (mostly men) ADDICTED.

When us girls were in High School (I graduated in 1972) no one was having sex. BUT!! As soon as the free clinics became available for teens to get the pill.....man we ran out and got some and started having sex. It was becoming more "fashionable" and "widely accepted." Problem was.....STD's started showing up more often also. It's no different with porn, body piercings, and self mutilation.
