Porn and the human are a toxic mix because it creates a human who runs on illusion and desire to fulfill something that is not in fact real, it's only created in one's mind and lived out through sex or masturbation. And through porn on the whole it is used to sell products that degrades the human being usually through women being seen as an object to be used as a means to an end, and this only to make money no matter the abuse caused. Have we as a society ever
considered the impact that porn has on our community, on our children’s minds,
on our functionality with the opposite sex within a relationship set up, I
would say no we have not. We don’t really ever consider what we are doing
within watching these videos, and how it will impact within people as their states of being when we allow porn to be so easily accessible and
protected through all avenues of media as if it is a normal way of behavior.
But it is not, the porn culture and saturation of it in our society
has created the outflows of abuse as sex slavery, child sex slaves, child molestation,
rape, women objectification, and physical abuse to be rampant due to the
raunchy nature of these sex scenes depicted in porn on the regular, many can’t
get enough so they seek criminal ways to fulfill this desire for more.
Some Research on Porn Viewing and Dysfunctional Societal
Behavior:
-Psychologist Edward Donnerstein (University of Wisconsin) found that brief exposure to violent forms of pornography can lead to anti-social attitudes and behavior. Male viewers tend to be more aggressive towards women, less responsive to pain and suffering of rape victims, and more willing to accept various myths about rape.
-Dr. Dolf Zimmerman and Dr. Jennings Bryant showed that continued exposure to pornography had serious adverse effects on beliefs about sexuality in general and on attitudes toward women in particular. They also found that pornography desensitizes people to rape as a criminal offense.
-These researchers also found that massive exposure to pornography encourages a desire for increasingly deviant materials which involve violence, like sadomasochism and rape.
-Feminist author Diana Russell notes in her book Rape and Marriage the correlation between deviant behavior (including abuse) and pornography. She also found that pornography leads men and women to experience conflict, suffering, and sexual dissatisfaction.
-Researcher Victor Cline (University of Utah) has documented in his research how men become addicted to pornographic materials, begin to desire more explicit or deviant material, and end up acting out what they have seen.
-According to Charles Keating of Citizens for Decency Through Law, research reveals that 77 percent of child molesters of boys and 87 percent of child molesters of girls admitted imitating the sexual behavior they had seen modeled in pornography.
-Sociologists Murray Straus and Larry Baron (University of New Hampshire) found that rape rates are highest in states which have high sales of sex magazines and lax enforcement of pornography laws.
-Michigan state police detective Darrell Pope found that of the 38,000 sexual assault cases in Michigan (1956-1979), in 41 percent of the cases pornographic material was viewed just prior to or during the crime. This agrees with research done by psychotherapist David Scott who found that “half the rapists studied used pornography to arouse themselves immediately prior to seeking out a victim.”
-The Final Report of the 1986 Attorney General’s Commission on Pornography lists a full chapter of testimony (197-223) from victims whose assailants had previously viewed pornographic materials. The adverse effects range from physical harm (rape, torture, murder, sexually transmitted disease) to psychological harm (suicidal thoughts, fear, shame, nightmares)

Also recommended interview to watch on the impact of porn:
Growing up I realized the seduction of porn as it was very
specifically placed within movies and tv shows to get the curiosity growing,
and within this the curiosity does grow, and it was very easily satisfied with
easy access to porn through internet or tv stations, especially now a days
where internet access is everywhere. Thankfully, I never took it to an
addiction level, but it is a point one will eventually face in this reality
and have to decide who one is going to be and what one is going to be controlled by self will or desire based on the saturation of perverse sexual images seen every where. Internet porn is one of the easiest and unprotected
ways of viewing for all ages of human beings, children are especially
vulnerable due to not really understanding what one is viewing and clicking
away making it a virtual ticking time bomb to get to images that are not
meant for anyone eyes never mind children.
And what of the women in these videos who are being abused
outright, being forced to have multiple things happening to them at once with
many guys, and all sorts of disgusting things that sell because the mind easily
creates the desire for more and more outlandish images to continue the high
that is created when the porn images are viewed, and this sells so this is what
is made. So it’s an addiction for many as it’s easy to get and it’s an easy
reward, but is this really a reward, a momentary release of orgasm, where
through the very participation of this one gets addicted to more and more of
this feeling with the consequences being physical abuse, aggression, rape,
kidnapping, and torture to name a few that go on every day for people in this
world and it is driven within this type of media outlet, the porn industry,
which is more lucrative then Hollywood productions.
Have we ever considered that there is more to sex then just
watching porn and getting off, and then going to one’s relationship and trying
to live out these scenes that in reality will not actually work and can’t work
cause they aren’t in fact real. We have been dumbed down to believe all we are
are these out of control sex crazed humans with no self control. When the potential within us to have real
physical sex as an expression of ourselves in reality one and equal with the
physical exploring together with one’s partner is something that does in fact exist,
but only through the letting go of these fantasy and porn induced desires and
addictions completely to be able to move as self within each breath with no
mind interference. It takes a process of writing, and practicing with one’s
partner to get to a level of self control, but the rewards are worthwhile as it’s
real not just based on energy through the mind as pictures and images.
There is a series I have listened to that explains the mind
sex and the physical sex differences quite starkly and completely, called What is Sex?, which has changed my outlook on what’s possible based on hearing
things that I have never considered before about sex as a physical expression
and the understanding within what it actually is creating on a mind level. There is a difference to
be understood. This series explores the topics of moving from just feelings and
an energy release as a momentary orgasm to real physical connection with
another and an exploration of yourself to find out who one really is within
one’s own physical body and what it really means to touch another as self here
in equality in the physical reality, this leading to the physical expression of
the body as self as sex. It’s something else when one is in an agreement with
another to walk as a support for each other within this process of letting go
of the mind and remaining here in the physical, and the rewards through self is
something I have seen the benefit of even just starting out within practicing
this way of physical expression with another that has been quite exceptional.
And as a societal integration within this way of physical
expression is a balanced human who respects themselves and their partner equally
in reaching the ecstasy that can be reached through touch and intimacy through
communication of two becoming one for real here in the physical in equality and
oneness. Porn is not real sex and is only done in the mind where the energy
dies, which as an outflow consequence cause horrific abuse in this world to
many many men, women, and children. There is whole industries built on this
abuse that is started within participating and viewing pornography to
eventually not getting enough from that, so one resort to make their fantasies
real disregarding those effected, but only seeking to fulfill one’s desire for
release of sexual tension. Suggest we stop limiting ourselves for instant
gratification and walk the process to real self expression through discipline
and self exploration with another in an agreement into self expression as physical
sexual expression.
