Is internet porn ruining our next generation? Is censorship the answer?


These scholars and experts are at the forefront of this research. Apologies but you will have to listen to at least one of these clips to get what this O.P. is all about.

Is it possible that in sexual matters, the right wing conservatives might be ahead of the left wing in their thinking?


If not, then what should the left do to help us save our children from the indoctrination via internet porn into unhealthy and unwanted sexual habits? Or have them not be able to perform without porn?


I consider myself left wing but I think we may be going a tad far and should move to the right on this issue due to things like you saw in the clips above as well as what is shown in this clip below.

At one time, parents would have closed any shop that gave access to the young to porn. Yet today, parents do not seem to care and as more and more young children get cell phones, parental prohibition will be impossible.


Have parents forgotten how to parent and are men and women willing to allow the status quo to ruin the sexuality of the next generation?


"Censorship reflects society's lack of confidence in itself. It is a hallmark of an authoritarian regime." - Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart


To date, I have lived by the above quote. I do not lack confidence in our adult population but see this issue as more of a medical one and I am willing to censure for our children's sake.


Some Eastern countries have used censorship to gain control of what their children can access. Should the West do the same?


Are our children worth it?

The issue of whether internet pornography is damaging to the next generation is complicated and contentious. While some argue that pornographic exposure can negatively impact young people's attitudes toward sex and relationships, others argue that it is a matter of personal responsibility and that the availability of pornography is not inherently harmful.

I too thinks that it depends on the person's responsibility towards the thing. The thing has been there for long and it's quite depends solely on the person's perspective.

It is unfortunate that things are getting out of hand. Teens and kids are handling cellphones which give them access to watching porn. Honestly, the government and parents are giving kids more control than necessary. It will cause our society more harm than ever.

Alls I know it that censorship and prohibition of anything is never the solution...

Looks like whoever uploaded the video in OP's post was terminated from Youtube. Anyways, teenagers are at that age where they're exploring. You should be mindful of what your teens are doing online for sure, however the government shouldn't have a say on how anyone lives.

Amen to that

I do not think that easy access to pornography is ruining the next generation. However, it is definitely desensitizing everyone to it and making it more acceptable, especially ever since Only Fans has become as popular, accepted and "empowering".
