>> After all, aren’t these the real problems?
I think that the argument would be that wide acceptance of pornography has led to premarital sex and such.
But I don’t think that the reasons listed are the principles they are operating out of. They are just ways to get porn sites shut down because of other reasons.
Generally, when we speak of one evil thing leading to another, it's a lesser evil that leads to a greater evil. So, here we have people saying that porn leads to premarital sex and is consequently destructive. Therefore, they argue, porn should be banned. But no mention of banning the greater evil of premarital sex. Or any of the other dysfunctional behaviors they claim are spawned by porn. I'm not sure what to make of that.

I suspect the same.
