No. There isn't.

There is no such evidence.

Even the massively religiously-influenced government of Tony Blair had to admit exactly that in its consultation for the legislation on 'extreme pornography'. And Christ, it would have been screaming it to the world if such evidence actually existed.



Your personal experience does not count as 'evidence' of anything.



Hey up, girls and boys – this explains a lot.



Yeah, I've noticed that when watching gay porn – now that [ireally[/i promotes a bad attitude toward women. And goodness – what about lesbian porn made by lesbians for lesbians! Hard to get more negative – not least because it doesn't promote an idea that women are breeding machines who are sluts if they enjoy a shag.

I've also noticed it in the porn that I myself have written, had published and been getting money from for several years. And I'm quite proud to be on a second edition.

Not for the first time, you haven't got a factual clue what you're talking about.

I like Porn!

Never ruined ours - wife loves a bit of woman on woman - and I suspect we are not alone - when it ruins as many lives as religion come back - how is the previous head of the catholic christians in Scotland - typical religious leader hypocrite.

I don't think that Kirky could care much for Papists tbh.

More than a few US right-wing religious homophobes have subsequently been found in - how shall we put it? - 'compromising' situations.

Are Dally and Kirkstaller trying to outdo one another in a 'post the stupidest thread' competition?

Another benefit of a ban would be the clsure of seedy dvd shops. Would also free up bandwidth on the internet to allow serious users to work more efficiently.

Dally's trolling is becoming more and more obvious.

Lots of couples watch pornography together, I appreciate that. But even if both parties are happy with it then it is still damaging to the relationship. Lusting after other people can never be a good thing for our relationships.

I admit that I occasionally have a wandering eye; I daresay my wife does as well. However, what brings us together is the knowledge that such instincts are wrong and that sexual activity is mean for married couples only. This brings us back to each other, and we have a great sex life.

Another problem is when adults become too involved with pornography and begin watching videos which are illegal. I challenge anyone to justify child pornography.

and what about the mainstream type of sex shop? you know the one that sells more than dvds, that aren't "seedy"?

and if freeing up bandwidth to "allow serious users to work more efficiently" allows you more time to troll on forums like this, then i think there should be more porn on the net!!

my wife and i watch porn together, i watch porn on my own, my wife also watches porn on her own. its not damaged our relationship, and we don't lust after other people. i don't lust after those that i watch in porn films, i've never lusted after other women or slept with other women nor my wife other men. in fact we've been married for 15 years and have 2 kids.

you say that sex is for married couples only? thats your choice more than likely based on your religion, good for you you stick to those principles and i'll stick to mine!

and as for your last point, i don't think anyone in their right mind would try and justify child porn. i've been watching porn for many years and reading/looking at porn for a bit longer, i've never committed a sex crime, i've never thought about committing one. i have a healthy sex life and me AND my wife enjoy what we watch and what we part take in.

If you aren't lusting after the people in the films, why do you watch it?



Your principles are wrong.



What about people who watch child porn and never do anything to hurt other people? Is that OK?

From porn to peadofiles in one easy jump.

The lazy preacher strikes again!

we watch it because we enjoy watching it. i don't lust after the actors/actresses, as to do so would mean i want to have sex with them, i don't. sometimes we watch porn to gain new ideas for our sex life, sometimes that missionary lark gets a bit tedious don't cha think?
do you and your wife watch soap operas? just because you watch eastenders doesn't mean you want to live in albert square, just because you read a recipe book for ideas doesn't mean you want to eat at another mans table.



so says you. i'm happy with my life thanks.



no its not ok. child porn is illegal. engaging in sexual activity with anybody under the age of consent is wrong and illegal. as for people who watch child porn but never hurt other people, these people are, if they were nothing else, an enabler. without them there would be no child porn "industry". so tell me again that they aren't doing anything to hurt other people.

What do you get from a film that you can't get from a book, or mere experimentation?



We don't watch any soap operas, and even if we did, I would pass it off as some kind of research.



OK so would you oppose someone viewing only existing child pornography? Y'know, they wouldn't encourage any more being made but they have enough to stop them abusing children.
