[QUOTE="DarkwingPsyduck, post: 695841, member: 20267"] Again, I am NOT disagreeing with you. I am merely showing the other side of it, and criticizing those with very archaic beliefs when it comes to sex. Sexual repression can bear negative consequences, as can hyper sexuality. The idea is a balance. But we can not truly reach that balance if we're too repressed to change our minds when new information is provided. Throughout history, sexual repression has been mostly a religious thing. The church telling people what is and is not normal, an acceptable when it comes to sex based on absolutely NOTHING but faith. That is NOT the way we progress and gain a better understanding. That is why most of the world has become much less repressed, and that trend continues today. People used to actually believe masturbation would make them blind, and send them to Hell. Very few believe that now, I'd hope. Many of the supposed harms of sex and porn has been debunked entirely as nonsense, with no basis in reality. And most men do watch porn, by the way. Admitting it is something else entirely, but sex is a base instinct. It is necessary for our species to survive. This is why it is gratifying. Sexual deviancy is not the guaranteed end result of viewing pornography. I am no deviant, and I viewed porn last night. Does this make me a sicko? No. It'd be more troubling if I NEVER watched porn, or sought gratification. That would mean that something is wrong with me physically, and/or emotionally, and/or mentally. I have a healthy view towards sex, and a healthy desire for it. As do most men. [/QUOTE]
