Pornography Harms Children, Teens, Adults, interview with Dr. Jill Manning

[shinokiba]

Stop trying to impose your morals onto others. Its not about the porn, its about our freedom.

[monstermash9]

It's religious lunatics like this that make the field of psychology a joke. My undergrad is in psychology, and I found that there is a divide of sorts in the field; A group that embraces science, and a group that embraces pseudoscience based on anecdotal evidence that they twist into a "theory" (which is also a term that gets misused). It is the main reason why I went into a completely different field in grad school. I do support psychology as a legitimate science, but it gets manipulated.

[OneDollarMercenary]

You know, in the 5 years that I've been watching porn, I still don't want to watch rape or rape fantasy stuff.

I guess that'll come later, right Patrick?

[LowSociety]

Your neck is sooo sexy.

[TheeSciGuy]

i saw a girl get beat the forced to fuck a horse then beat again and strapped to a fence and raped. shit was so cash.

[dawnofmonkey]

@TheeSciGuy i'll see you on 4chan later

[xMKIVxVR6x]

I fapped to this.

[monstermash9]

@xMKIVxVR6x

You're a trooper. I couldn't FAP to this.

[xMKIVxVR6x]

@monstermash9

It was difficult, as are most noble causes.

[AnimeAdept]

Shut the fuck up you moral crusading bitch. I've never seen so many fallacies in 10 minutes.

[redbarron718]

women, I am part of the Church of The Flying Spaghetti monster, back off the worshipping insulting.

[KillahManga]

I can masturbate to this

[SOUPRUN01]

Why would I have a problem with sleazy rubbishy people cajolling against will young vunerable girls, feeding them drugs, where sexually transmitted diseases are rampant. Look at pornstar memorial to those that have died of drugs or been murdered or killed themselelves. places like Camden NJ. not a fantasy. Addictions are hard to get out. I had friends die of addictions. I'ts a trap. For sex workers and reality warping for consumer.

[dawnofmonkey]

@SOUPRUN01 i dont care

[luvdomus]

What state has the most demand for pornography, according to statistics based on Internet porn and DVD sales? Not New York. Not California. The most porn-craving state is none other than ...Utah. Yes, the most sexually repressed and religious among us are also the most addicted to porn. And the ones to think we need laws to "protect" ourselves against it.

[Offspringfan64]

(Continued from previous post)No doubt, religious and other conservative mindsets negatively affect society in a very strong way every day.  I'm not saying that it's wrong to be morally conservative, but it is wrong to be judgy and pretend that you have the answers, when you don't.

[SOUPRUN01]

@Offspringfan64 I guess the argument is that 90% of people in prostitution are abused in childhood. They are also likely to be addicted to drugs to block out the reality of exploitative lifestyle they are in. So buy buying the product you fund people like Sacha Greys manager on Tyra Banks show. You also are desensitising and possibly making it harder to have normal relationship.

[Offspringfan64]

@SOUPRUN01 Even IF 90% of people in prostitution were abused in childhood, that doesn't changethe fact that people who are in porn are adults who are making their own, legal decisions. This is capitalism,survival of the fittest, and rich porn stars probably live in greater comfort and financial security than the most of us. :) People pay for what they want to, you can't say that's a bad thing!

[SOUPRUN01]

@Offspringfan64 was watching Girlfriend experience Sascha Grey film, and she actually said that everything in life is a transaction. legal? It is billion dollar industry that goverment turn blind eye to, but strictly speaking porn is not legal. porn stars are prostitutes. Check out dead pornstars tribute. Addiction to drugs tends to blow ( excuse pun all your money ). For instance Jenna Jameson in her book was raped at 15. It is an illusionary behind lighting, there is different reality.

[ChesterMolested]

@SOUPRUN01 Why do you feel a need to control what people do to their bodies?

[SOUPRUN01]

@ChesterMolested I don't want to control people. I'm trying to express an opinion, probably badly. I'd class myself as recovering porn addict. And gambling addict.  And addiction and hypersexualised addiction skew reality in my opinion. It's people like Sascha Greys manager on Tyra Banks show, that make money off of porn that possibly control people.

[ChesterMolested]

@SOUPRUN01 The purpose of a lot of these anti-porn groups is to take away people's first amendment rights and take away people's rights to do what they want to with their body. As long as the discussion of these groups stays on how people can protect their children and helping addicts I'm fine with it. If you want the governement to go police up people who aren't hurting anyone accept themselves you are a fascist. I'm sick of social cons. who like small gov. but want to contol people's bodies.

[SOUPRUN01]

@ChesterMolested For example in documentary Hardcore. It shows woman being anally raped against her will by Max Hardcore. It is a billion dollar industry that has alot of power over culture. I just read Gail Dines book Pornland How porn industry hijacked our sexuality. I have not read Mein Kamf. Hugh Hefner sleeps with bunnies, they are pressured against will to sleep with 83 year old. Why you feel need to call yourself Chester Molested?

[TheSunmanho]

@SOUPRUN01

what are you worried about? pornography is just a show, like "Star Wars". or do you really believe there are Jedi knights alive who fly in spaceships through the galaxy? it's Hollywood, nothing evil just a show.

[Offspringfan64]

What is it that I believe which makes "the pornography work"? Umm..I am extremely morally liberal, I don't believe in right or wrong, but I do not see how the follow up question should be a follow up question. How is that negatively influencing other areas of my life? In no way.  Porn isn't a negative influence in my life. We could ask her the same question, what is it that you believe that makes you believe porn is wrong? And how is it negatively affecting YOUR life mam?

[snafoofoo]

LOL, "move on to harder and harder material" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... I watched a women masterbate 10 years ago, now i have to watch 2 girls one cup with a gang bang in the picture and picture so i can get off!! HAHAHAHa what fucking planet do these people live on?!? I smoked pot once, now im addicted to crack and meth because i wanted a "stronger high" these people are bat shit crasy!!

[afroschlan]

Is it coincidence that the "imaginary friend" was mentioned in this discussion?

[Ricadani]

Calm down people. We all know the majority of society doesnt give a shit about porn. Shit my girlfriend doesnt care if i watch it or not and we are completely normal and so is everyone else i know. Basically it comes down to jobs, this issue of crying about porn keeps them bringing in money and in the limelight somewhat.

[Meloman0001]

Heritage Foundation?

[KamasutraButterfly]

Isn't this just moral panic? I mean, porn has always been around. Even the romans produced pornographic material in terms of pictures and paintings, and I think they had a much healthier attitude to sex: they weren't trying to censor it but accepted it as a natural thing, and that was 2000 years ago!

[lee0nline1]

@KamasutraButterfly you are right people will always look at stimulating images and religious groups are always at the fore when it comes to censorship. Sex is healthy and porn by association is healthy too. The industry just needs to be regulated better

[buschbeer100]

With all due respect Dr. Manning, but I would bone the hell out of you. And yes, Porn is a disgusting virus on society.

[ParisSpleen74]

@buschbeer100

deprived loser

[buschbeer100]

@ParisSpleen74 spread em babe

[thepepis]

u guys have no life i love seeing tits fuck off

[TheMonroe99]

I totally get this, but research and concern about society at large were not motivators for me to break free of pornography and masturbation addiction. I had to discover why I needed the do-nothing cycle of sexual excitement and relief. It really has nothing to do with insatiable sex appetite. For me, masturbation, pornography, and sexual fantasy were attempts to boost my ego Now,. I speak truth to the desires and I'm moving beyond them.

[BlazingFury07]

I've watched porn since I was like 11. I'm now 19 and have none of the "symptoms" you go on about

[iamajr]

@BlazingFury07 yer me too lolololol

[whitneyrgoolsby]

@lunafringe10 what are you talking about? Whatever.. that's BS.

[lunafringe10]

a pretty doctor. But its the woman who get pushy with sex. lets face up to it
