"Nudity and sex are normal"
That may be true, but internet pornography in general is definitely not normal.
I don't support any censorship. But if you were a parent, you might want to think twice about giving your 12 year old free reign on internet porn.
- kintamanimatt 13y agoPorn has a very long history and is pretty normal. Humans really, really love to make graphic depictions of sex. Before the internet there were magazines and VHS, and before that there were photos. (Go to any museum of sex and you'll see that Victorians weren't quite so Victorian.) Keep going back through history and it's pretty much always existed in some form with varying degrees of prevalence. [1] If I were a parent I would have absolutely no problem with my kid accessing porn so long as they had a decent sex education. I don't want to essentially write the same comment twice, but I explain my position reasonably well elsewhere.

- jebeng 13y agoThere is such a wide range of porn now through. A lot of it is quite antisocial. Having a child look at Playboy or those low budget late night tv softcore movies is one thing, or even something more graphic. It's not really about the sex or nudity that's the problem. But imagine children on 4chan. A lot of that stuff can't be healthy.
