Quote:
However, when the researchers actually exposed participants to pornography, personality (agreeableness) was found to influence the relationship between pornography and sexist attitudes so that it was only among participants low in agreeableness that pornography was found to increase sexist attitudes.

So basically it's only a sub-section of the general populus with a a predisposition to having a lack of agreeableness that is only negatively influcenced even by this studies own admission when watching pornography in the narrow field of study that this article isolates.
People have been claiming for over 100 years that pornography is bad for a variety of reasons. The lack of concrete evidence for this though is evident. Additionally there are numerous studies that demonstrate that pornography can be widely beneficial.
