International P0rnhub pulls out of France. Losing traction elsewhere. The decline of non age-verifiable pr0n?

[DoctorTaco]

Man do you really think only 1% of men (with smart phones) don't watch porn ? Lots of women would consider watching porn cheating, do you think 99% of men would cheat on a woman who thinks porn is cheating ?

I was being a bit hyperbolic, but I’d bet if we had a way to know unequivocally then yeah, by definitions listed here (content created to arouse sexual desire) id say 90+ percent of men with smart phones look at porn. God bless that 10% who can rub one out using their internal spank bank.

I do believe that 99% of men who are with women that consider porn cheating secretly use it to whack off.

- How do they verify age? I've been told thats is possible to look at the site, without acces him if you use Bing!

 

[LeonardoBjj]

LOL, yeah, Bing's safe search is a hell of a thing. You turn that shit off and hoo boy, the depravity you will see. You can't type a word without direct porn links(among others) they host showing up. I think it's the only thing that's kept them somewhat competitive with Google over the years. They got the gooner market cornered.

Ultimately, proving age would be risky, but not tough. Plenty of websites require proof of ID, but do you really want to trust that shit to a porn site? If they can hack the government, they can hack that. Those ransom hackers are just waiting...

Yes, you could have found that out for yourself... I tried to cover all bases with the info I gave you, from legit sources, real studies as well as advocates for this very issue.... and you can't even be bothered to read them, how predictable.

Just as imagine nobody else will read any of them when they got 7 pornhub tabs waiting.

No I don’t have time to read 10 studies to see if any of them say what you claim after the first didn’t. Since you can’t point to one that has the info I asked you for, now I wonder if you read them or you liked the headline so thought it would be a good share.

Btw I did read the abstracts of the nih ones and they’re not nearly as damning as you think they are. Some of them even list positives of porn consumption (gasp)

 

[italiamusica]

It's good, and all of those kinds of sites need to go down, once you realize how fucked up they all are.

There's the, what some would consider, "lesser" illegal stuff on there, like:

- People signing up for someone's OF, downloading all their stuff, and then uploading it to porn sites.

- Either revenge porn, or stuff uploaded without the woman's consent and they didn't know it was being uploaded, didn't know it was being filmed, or both.

And then it's all the horrible stuff, like:

- Straight up child porn.

- Date rape, women drugged and passed out and unable to consent to anything.

- Loooooooooots of human trafficking.

- Hidden cameras in people's houses or bathrooms.

There's too much bad stuff on Pornhub and similar sites, it all needs to be erased and start over. It's impossible to verify anything when random people can upload whatever they want. There's also straight up rape videos on some of these sites, women tied up and crying. Fuck all of that.

I find a certain irony with this since Europeans are usually so liberal and open with things like sex and nudity and consider North America as very prudish by comparison. I remember going to France when I was 17 and being shocked at the little differences like billboards and TV commercials for things like shampoo showing women in showers but unlike in Canada or the US actually showing their tits as they’re washing their hair.

If you don't have the time why did you ask for them ?

You just won't because it started to dawn on you, that your blind allegiance to the porn gods if full of gaping holes.

I asked if any of them had any large aggregate data. The few I looked at were all small studies. They also presume causation in most of them that I clicked which were all the nih ones. Quite disappointing to see that from them

Doesn't seem like you looked very well, or did a good job of understanding what you are reading but to be totally fair, if you need studies to tell you that porn is bad for you then you are a complete and total fucking idiot.

 

[Gutter Chris]

That’s the thing isn’t it? It’s like a 95% overlap of people who don’t believe in regulating guns or that the government should be allowed to make children get proven safe vaccines. When it’s those topics they try to talk like tough guys and tell everyone the government doesnt need to nanny their children. Bring up porn though, and this is the real pandemic that’s a problem to grand for them to handle without the government banning it.

So then we can make porno as difficult to obtain/produce as a short barrel for your rifle and you do not object ? I totally need id to buy one so that also seems fair . I can't carry my gun everywhere so you can't blast porno out everywhere .....

I don't think the government should ban it. But since I have to put up with what I think is straight up horse shit in regards to my second ammendment rights I feel that the pro porn its my first ammendment crowd can put up with the same nonsense .

I mean fuck if we can regulate one right we can regulate them all. I'm glad you brought up the second ammendment. So which is it ? We can and should regulate peoples rights or we shouldn't? Or that just depends on how you feel about any given right ?

Here’s the thing- they’re not equal. Guns are way more dangerous than porn could ever hope to be yet the moral crusaders tend to have an inverted view of it. I’m not sure what you mean by blast porno out everywhere- what like watch it on the bus or out in a crowded public space? No I don’t think you should be able to do that and to my knowledge that is already illegal.

So no porn should not be as difficult to obtain as guns. Like it or not porn did not kill 30,000 people in the US last year.

 

[Blayt7hh]

Uh you haven’t responded to a single question I asked and I have now been clicking through them in my off time. I’m calling your bluff- you didn’t read them. You thought you could drop a long list and get away without a conversation.

Sorry, bluff called. I’m not an idiot and that’s why you’re struggling to respond now. Do you understand why these studies that are assuming causation are bad studies? Do you understand why these small populations studied mean that while they could provoke interest ultimately do not answer the question?

I know you don’t understand, so I’ll give you a hint. It’s the same reason you shouldn’t change your diet every week when a mew study shows that pumpkin seed extract prevents cancer or wtf ever.

There’s more problems with studies like this and why I get annoyed when people like you drop them and think you know the answer. For something like moderate porn use, to determine if it did indeed have a negative impact on people you would have to control for so many variables that it becomes incredibly difficult to do. You realize this right?

I mean unrestricted on the internet. That's the part of porno i object to and think something probably should be done about. Random kids aren't allowed to play in my gun safe. You can't just walk into a store and walk out with a gun no questions asked. Kids shouldn't be free to access whatever porn at any given time either.

I'm fine with treating it the exact same as guns. I've gotta put up with bullshit I don't agree with so I don't have a problem with degenerates having to jump through a few hoops either. It's obvious that rights are not absolute regardless of how you or I feel about them

And As far as rights go ... the first and second are equal it's just that for some reason you don't want to see them the same and think regulating one is fine but not the other.

What questions did I not answer ? I read every word on every one of those as I posted them before in the previous threads on this topic, I'm pretty sure you were active in that thread too. I don't agree with your assessment on these studies but I am not surprised that no matter how much evidence you are presented with you, you will never be able to concede that porn is harmful, likely because you yourself are a victim in denial.

The causation argument may apply to some things but it certainly not every claim about the negative effects of porn. I don't think anything can convince you that porn has a negative impact on porn. If you really want to be so firm on this incel stance then go ahead, but it doesn't do you or anyone any favours.

You’re not a degenerate if you watch pork sometimes. Let’s make that clear- especially since I’m very confident that even if you guys aren’t going it in your older age you did do it in the past.

I don’t disagree with you in principle that you should have to require ID. The problem is in practice. Those sites are unregulated and shady as all hell. No one wants to give their personal information to them because they cannot be trusted. If you can find a good way to do it without handing over pii to them then I’ll change my opinion.

Just like you keep your gun in a safe, maybe parents should put safety controls on phones that kids have access to instead of expecting strangers to do more for your kids. I think you’re crazy though if you think that it should be rigorous (or not rigorous) as buying guns. Again porn did not kill 30,000 people last year.

I mean you didn’t answer any of them I asked but don’t worry about it I’m now wasting my time going through this utter tripe you linked. For instance i just wasted 5 minutes reading the link that was only an abstract that broke down the kind of porn on some websites. Great that’s super relevant. And omg there is spanking and hair pulling how awful.

It’s link I click on I become more and more convinced you were just copying these without reading them. Save the victim stuff. I’m not a victim. I watch porn once or twice a week when I beat off. I’ll bet you do to or at least did until you got to old to beat it. It has not negatively impacted my life and that’s precisely why I find your particular brand of wolf crying snout this funny. I’m just man enough to admit it. That’s what straight men do. Get over yourself

I didn't answer the questions that the links I posted address directly but I'm not sure what else I failed to address. In the future don't ask for information if you are going to dismiss it immediately without even reading it, it just shows your bias. I don't think a once a week habit is going to have any negative physical effects, but certainly could impact relationships. If you don't agree we can test this theory. Just go casually tell your significant other, just so you know I watch porn on a weekly basis, give her a kiss on the cheek and walk away. Let us know what happens.

The last time I watched porn was during the early years of my first marriage which was over 15 years ago and I am not that old my unit works great.

Is it really what straight men do ? Most porn is straight sex, which means if you are watching it there is some degree of gayness going on.

 

[HereticBD]

You’re not a degenerate if you watch pork sometimes.

Not throwing stones, but it is pretty skeezy, even if you partake. Does "skeezy" work for you? It may be a bit normalized these days, but it's not something to be proud of.

That said, allowing/defending it's easy access to children is pretty degenerate. Yes, children have found ways in the past, but there is a big difference between a Playboy magazine, and watching chicks getting skull fucked and having a train run through them. That's gonna have a bigger impact on the underdeveloped brain than seeing some titties and bush on a good looking woman in a photo spread.
