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.

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.

Sex is just as much in the head as it is in the body. Pornography is a lousy tutor, especially for men. Since it pornography relates to what's in the head, it raises both self-interested and ethical concerns.

I cannot agree with anyone who claims that pornography is in any way beneficial. Although I have gotten aroused by pornography for most of my life, I have to declare it The most destructive force I have ever come across.

It lead me to low self esteem, arousal of being defeated, distraction from studies and dropping out of college. Loss of internships, loss of jobs, sluggishness, lethargy, unwillingness to project effort. Disassociation with my family. Poor choices in female partners. Fantasy obsession. Bad behavior around women. Machism. Depression. Paranoia.

Also it's presence in popular culture lead others to bully me and my best friends unrelentingly throughout my life. It annihlated the marriage rate of my area. Made relationships between men and women very uncomfortable over the years.

It makes women less respectful of gentlemanly behavior as well as less trusting of it, and even bullying men who portray themselves as gentlemen.

It promotes rape. Demeans motherhood. Demonizes virginity. Demonizes religion and family based structures.

Distracts from education.

Aggrivates eastern societies and promotes jihad.

Don't tell me I'm just one of those bad people who it has a negative effect on.
