Thanks for sharing your views and you raise a lot of good points.
I'm no expert in this - but maybe a first good step would be to introduce some kind of rating system for porn, just like movies have. As with other things in our lives - porn is also on a spectrum. For example:
- Clips showing sensual sexual exchange between 2 people = safe
- Clips showing 10inch phalluses being rammed down your various orifices = probably needs a disclaimer that it's not reflecting the real world.
Regarding kids watching this stuff - I also wonder what this does to their brain development.
And regarding self-worth of men - if you promote the more realistic view of sex then porn can be educational, e.g. learning how to satisfy your sex partner.
You bring up yogic traditions - again not an expert in this, but didn't some yogis show how to elevate your creativity via tantric yoga?
But I think we can all agree (well not all, as is apparent from all the down-votes of the GP comment) that exploitation and abuse in porn is bad and hence why we shouldn't support companies that are not serious about eliminating this.
- inDigiNeous 6y agoThanks for commenting and sharing your views too. A rating system and some kind of system that would allow consumers to limit what kind of porn can be viewed from their devices would be something I would think would be made compulsory in the future hopefully. Not so familiar with tantric traditions, but still that is something more coming closer to elevating your creativity and vital energy through sexual acts, than just releasing it that porn is encouraging people to do. If you think about this from a deeper perspective, porn is taking a lot of power away from our young men, so maybe it is a good thing to some parties to keep porn available, so people would not have their strength to themselves to resist control structures. But this is just a thought. We should not support, and yet, pornhub probably makes millions from their exploitative acts.
