I think it can be bad depending on the situation

My opinion is a bit complex? I think most of the industry is bad, toxic, exploitative, etc. I also have the personal opinion that it is harmful in many monogamous relationships. However, I do support many sex workers and believe they should have the right to do their work freely and safely. For some SWers it's a very positive part of their life, for other's its negative. I think it's a very grey topic with too many aspects to say it's either good or bad, I think that it's both.

The industry is terrible, non consensual stuff happens often, as well as trafficking victims being exploited, etc. Some states have declared porn a public health crisis because of the negative effects it has on people. The website below has a lot of information for anyone interested: https://fightthenewdrug.org

Probably? It’s complex lol

My simple answer is no. The industry historically hasn’t been & isn’t currently ideal, but there are ethical avenues of consuming porn. “Porn addiction” is just a sad excuse for having no self control in my opinion. Same with “video game addictions” literally just turn it off and walk away.

The porn industry is bad, but porn itself isn't.

i’d say no, but my husband says yes lol. he’s 100% against watching porn

I think porn is bad, it can make you be unsatisfied with normal sex with a person irl. This is because someone may start to watch armature porn but then might go on some links that are just way unrealistic. This then can make the person have the idealisation that this is how it should be when no it isn’t. Porn in small doses is fine with the ‘right’ videos, but then if you’re watching it everyday and get onto some funky shit I think it’s so unhealthy.

I’m not a fan never have been he’s got pictures etc of me so would rather him watch that I went of sex a lot when pregnant with 2 of my kids at one point I did say go watch porn but he said no x

It can be bad but that doesn't mean it's always bad.

Non-ethical porn is bad

My husband is against it and I don't think it's in any way "liberating or empowering" for women. But it depends on the person and the relationship too.

I think the porn industry in general is pretty bad but there is ethical porn. I think it can be problematic with its objectification of people

Depends on the person and situation I guess. I watch it; my husband watches it, we watch it together sometimes. It can become a problem for certain people but for others it’s no problem

Porn definitely has a net negative impact on society. If I could choose to erase porn from existence I would because I know it would be better for women and girls in general. But I don’t think all porn should be labeled bad or that it makes you a bad person to watch or create it occasionally😂

100% bad. You are lusting after someone that is not your significant other. Your body should be private and not thrown out to the world. I think porn is disgusting

Yes morally and not morally. What it does to peoples mental health is actually sad. All the children who find it.. etc.

I said yes because I genuinely think the world would be a better place w/O it because it creates unobtainable expectations especially when younger people watch it. But I understand that it does exist and it's not completely bad.
