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?

Are our children worth it?

NO and NO.

Censor your own brats if you want to but leave the rest of us alone.


My children are no longer in danger of the damage hitting our children from 10 years old and up.


No of them are or were brats.


So you think internet porn that important to adults that you do not care how many of our young are hurt by it or gain an addiction that could effect them for a long time.


Gotcha.


Nice social conscience pal.

It doesn't matter if it is porn or bible studies. Censorship is bad. Until there is a law forcing you to take part it is none of your business. I suppose you get to be the one that determines what is to be sencored and what passes too.

Censorship and controls are used by every parent. It is just a tool we use to protect them. We also censor the internet right now for child porn.


When I see that 50 % of children under 25 are having problems then you can bet your *** it is my problem. You may not care about your neighbor but I do.


Have fun watching your friends suffer as their children do. Then turn back to your porn and screw yourself up.

It is the parents responsibility to censor or to decide what to censor for their kids. It is not that of the government or the internet to censor everybody because your kids might be looking.

And just to be clear, when you say "child porn" you are talking about porn watched by minors. Note that child porn is illegal and therefore censored right now.

When I talk of child porn I, like you, am talking of the porn presently censored to which I hope they add all porn.


I agree that it is the parents responsibility but our hands are tied as for 1, most parents are not qualified nor do they want to do the teaching. This is a multi-generational problem as spoken about in that first link. For 2, children know more about the technology than parents and censorship is nearly impossible without help.


Parents should be promoting censorship as a part of the responsibility you and I agree is theirs.

Nah, My mother had a major caniption when she found out I was looking at "dirty magazines" at age 14 & I didn't turn out too perverted. I suppose there is a limit as to how much this practice is distracting a kid from other normal healthy pursuits. Maybe a flag should come up when all the pages are stuck together. Anyway if you tell a kid no, it's all the more incentive for him to carry on to excess.

Not midget porn though. That's just wrong.



That's a tall order.

This is not about you and a magazine does not have the addiction properties of the internet.


You should view what is given before commenting on your own experience.

Ask any 10 year old. Children know the technology better than we do.

I favor banning anything that's deemed inappropriate for five-year-olds, with felony penalties for violation.



??


Do you think Child porn is ok to watch if you are 6 years old?




I showed stats that say that 50% of children between 12 and 25 are harmed by internet porn.


What % or level of harm would prompt you to favor censorship?


Regards
DL

Censorship solves every problem.



I do not agree nor do I like using it.


It contains a problem. It does not take it away or solve it.


What have you seen censorship actually solve or eliminate?

25 year olds are not children even though they may act it sometimes. Hell at 18 the government is quite happy to pay them to go overseas and kill people so why would the government want to censor what they watch afterwards? If porn bothers you so much change the channel. I would rather they censor the holy rollers on TV since that will truly ruin young lives.

I agree with your last but not with censorship but with a fraud charge for lying for money.


As to the rest, where is your sense of social conscience regardless of the age?


I quote “Over 50% of subjects (average age: 25) had difficulty achieving erections with real partners, yet could achieve an erection with porn.”


Source Cambridge University.


Do you have grandchildren? Do you want any?


Just asking.

Without providing a definition of "harm.".



All you had to do was follow the links.
