Is internet porn ruining our next generation? Is censorship the answer?
Is internet porn ruining our next generation? Is censorship the answer?
These scholars and experts are at the forefront of this research. Apologies but you will have to listen to at least one of these clips to get what this O.P. is all about.
Is it possible that in sexual matters, the right wing conservatives might be ahead of the left wing in their thinking?
If not, then what should the left do to help us save our children from the indoctrination via internet porn into unhealthy and unwanted sexual habits? Or have them not be able to perform without porn?
I consider myself left wing but I think we may be going a tad far and should move to the right on this issue due to things like you saw in the clips above as well as what is shown in this clip below.
At one time, parents would have closed any shop that gave access to the young to porn. Yet today, parents do not seem to care and as more and more young children get cell phones, parental prohibition will be impossible.
Have parents forgotten how to parent and are men and women willing to allow the status quo to ruin the sexuality of the next generation?
"Censorship reflects society's lack of confidence in itself. It is a hallmark of an authoritarian regime." - Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart
To date, I have lived by the above quote. I do not lack confidence in our adult population but see this issue as more of a medical one and I am willing to censure for our children's sake.
Some Eastern countries have used censorship to gain control of what their children can access. Should the West do the same?
Parents already have the choice to censor. The can limit what can and can't be viewed online and on phones. They can buy feature phones that don't have such capabilities and keep computers that their children have access to in areas that would mostly prohibit viewing pornography. They can have discussions with their children about sex, sexuality, and the responsibilities and consequences that come along with it rather than letting the world do that for them.
It does seem many are fighting a losing battle in general at this point because a lot of younger people are coming in a way that makes it difficult for them to interact in a healthy way with others face to face, and even in their chosen medium of online communication they lack tact. Having more and more of a generation growing up not only socially disconnected but hyper-sexualized and with a mindset that sex is about their own pleasure and quick gratification certainly won't make things better.
Parents can always use parental control software to monitor and filter/block adult content from prying eyes of their children. There are various free and paid options in the market. The real problem is majority of parents don't bother at all about their child/children's surfing habits.

All I will say is..of all the things ruining the next generation, porn in any form falls low on the list.

Plus as has been said, you can indeed censor what your kids have access to, at least in your own home. Which is the way it should be, you let parents set their own guidelines for their specific needs instead of saying "censor it for everyone because kids might see it".
That would be like saying "ban all booze because kids might somehow get ahold of some".

Ok just already 5 seconds into the video you can't take the guy seriously. He also says things that make no sense. Men and told what not to do, but not told what they "should" do? That seems false to me.
Growing up I was always told what a kid should and shouldn't be doing. Later on it was "if you are a man you must get a job and then get a wife and then have kids and do it in that order preferably".

and what exactly is a "unhealthy/ unwanted sexuall habit"
"ruin the sexuality of the next generation?" how the shit do you ruin someone's sexuallity.
the next generation has access not only to porn but ALOT of other things aswell on the internet, they are chosing porn (which does tend to set unrealistic behaviors and traits) because it suits there sexual urges or curiousity. they have access to addvanced and simple laws of physics, great works of literature and so on but like most of us the next generations views what it WANTS to watch not what it may NEED to
anyway devices can be censored in what materials are viewed. schools have such programs and there are free online programs that teach and show adults how to monitor or censor devices and sites relating to porn
Of course we also have to be realistic here..the kids will reach a certain age where you won't be able to control what they see on the internet. You don't need to be a genius with computers to get around parental controls. On top of that you have no idea what they might see if they are at a friends house or something.
The internet has changed everything. In the past parents had a lot more control of the kind of things their child would be exposed to..but that has changed.

Sadly, much too often children and even adults think that pornography shows what sex is like. Perhaps better and more open sex education could mitigate that.
we need to go back to the good old days of scrambled porn on cable tv. these kids need to learn the virtue of patience.

Thing is..it's not always a fantasy played out by actors. The age of the porn star is over. What is in now? Amateur porn. Not porn stars, but real people posting videos of themselves online. Not for profit and the videos don't look professional. But you see real people. I prefer those videos to the other porn, it's nice to see real women instead of woman with double D **** and men with 10 inch long hard ons.
Here is my thing: I don't even know how porn stars still make money. Those amateur videos I talked about you can get for free from a multitude of sites. You can even get normal porn for free from sites. So who the hell is paying for porn?

i dont mind amateur porn, but i hate...despise...LOATH poor cinematography in porn. especially when the screen is like 80% man-crotch because of incompetent photography. i believe some degree of professionalism will always be in demand.

Well yeah, but you can find a lot of videos where there is no incompetent photography and you aren't just starring at the back of a dudes ass and balls as he bangs some woman.
Both professional and amateur videos there, 100% free.
