Forcible rape has fallen by about a third in the last 20 years:

Gun ownership, concealed carry, and the return to a semblance of sanity in criminal sentences can be credited for that.

Forty years ago you could let your kids walk to school. Today, not so much.

That may well be, but I was not commenting on causes of the decrease in rapes.

I was commenting on your assertion that there was a high correlation between availability of porn and a rise in sex crimes. There is actually a negative correlation between the two.
