Minors accessing porn on their own is not a real problem, and hurts no one.
Teenagers beyng addicted to porn is a real problem.
Teenagers being addicted to anything is a real problem. Prohibition doesn’t work.
Porn addiction is so astroturfed by evangelicals, that whatever actual addiction for porn there is have been drowned out by endless amount of “if you ever thought about wanting it then you’re an addict, please find jesus”.
All addiction is a problem. Hyper- focusing on porn addiction without any objective data on how much addiction of porn is occuring in teenagers and then trying to clumsily legislate away porn in response is bad governance.
If porn addiction is occuring at the same rate as gambling addiction, alcholoism and drug addicition then the problem is not likely to be any of those things individually but likely to be something else.
this is more of a parent involvement problem. the world will continue being scary and have millions of harmful things. it’s up to parents to prepare their children to survive and adapt to this world
So we should force companies to deal with that? Not parents?
None of this stops teens who want to find porn from finding porn.
But not my fuckin problem!
Is it? Is there research on it?
Actually yes. Tons of research. For both teen and adults.
But you could have googled that yourself instead of choosing to be a fucking idiot about it.
Do you imagine this is a good way of addressing any addiction issues?
