How do you know they are facts, then?

Originally posted by robbie carrobieAlright, so no sollution. Only some yadda yadda yadda about how porn can be addictive. Anything else?
Its impossible to forbid it, its already far too prevalent. People will simply find a way. I cannot say if there are more or less, but according to the statistics that I provided, there are millions of porn addicts.

Many people argue that's a good thing.
In a 2002 survey conducted for PBS/Frontline by the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction at Indiana University, 86 percent of respondents said porn can educate people, and 72 percent said it provides a harmless outlet for fantasies. Among those who reported using pornography, 80 percent said they felt "fine" about it.
"There are a lot of people out there using a lot of porn who have no problems with it whatsoever," says Erick Janssen, PhD, a senior scientist at the Kinsey Institute.
This, according to you, is also a fact.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieMy sollution? Watch porn if you want to, be careful not to become addicted.

Like drinking beer, basically.
Oh, also, don't hurt other people. But that's always solid advice.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieIf your solution has helped people who want to kick a porn habit to kick it then I reckon that's a positive thing.

A new study suggests that pornography addiction isn’t actually a real thing. The study, published in Current Sex Health Reports, said that pornography doesn’t create an addiction and that those who try and cure an alleged addiction aren’t actually doing anything for you, The Wire said.
“So fear not — if you catch yourself watching porn more than once in your life, you don’t actually have an addiction,” The Wire said. “In fact, you might just be a normal human being.”
Actually, you said that you accepted them as facts unless I could prove otherwise.
Do you also accept the above as facts?
Originally posted by Rank outsiderthey may be factual of the study that was conducted yes and i have already stated now for the second time that there is a great divergence of opinion, citing the statement that i made three times. Why you fail to understand that or acknowledge it i cannot say. Here it is again, in bold, so that you do not overlook it again.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieAnyone? Anyone who? You mean people that already have an addiction? Well, for those people there already are programs available to help them cope with their addiction.
and hows that gonna help anyone?
Programs that can be proven to exist, by the way, unlike part of your sollution.
Furthermore, both parents and schools need to communicate with children about the possible dangers of porn. That might help.
Other than that, let's hope porn is here to stay and let's try and make sure that the people working in that industry are treated fairly.
That about sums it up, I think.
