    Dolphins would strongly disagree! They also procreate for fun. But don't worry; the government will find a way to Tax it, internet porn that is...

    "WITHOUT SEXUAL MORALITY HOW CAN THEY BE TRUE LOVE ? "

    Um yeah, are you trying to say that people who watch porn are immorral and unable to love? Cause that would be pretty ignorant and untrue, right?

    We are sexual beings and sexuality is part of our deepest selves. Its like food, sleep and twinkies.. you just got have it.

    Anyway, the Month of May is National Masturbation Month so I doubt these numbers are goin down anytime soon...

    Obviously the major TV networks aren't sending out enough spam email.

    People who say: " I love you" and then are cheating are scum

    Infidelity break up marriages and the hearts of millions of children

    Life are destroyed by pornogaphy

    Child pornography is the worse

    wow, this is amazing to actually see these numbers. it really doesn't surprise me though.

  •  

    Actually, couples that watch porn together are more likely to stay together.

    And not all cheating breaks up marriages, in fact it's usually a sign that the marriage wasn't going well in the first place.

    Many MARRIED couples fuck other people knowingly, tell their kids that and everyone grows up just fine.

    Oh yeah, there's also no link between porn viewership, cheating frequency and divorce rates.

    Open mouth, insert foot soleil.

    Of course there are link between pornography, cheating and divorce.

    Go ask a divorce lawyer or a judge.

    I think you need a therapist

    The biggest disgrace of our world is porn. Exploiting sex and generally degrading women. Morals out the window.

    So glad you think people fucking is the disgrace of our world and not torture or war. Great moral priorities there canadian.

    Uh, no there's not soleil, you're full of shit. And I don't need a therapist to tell me how to live my life. But I understand if you lack the personal judgment to make your own decisions and need an "expert" to tell you how to live. Not all of us have the personal confidence to understand that relationships are about communication and understanding and not arbitrary sexual bonds promoted hundreds of years ago for political reasons.

    Have fun with your fake facts, I'll have fun watching porn with my girlfriend of over three years.

    Recently I picked up Refer Madness, by Eric Schlosser which talks about the American Black Market, including Sex, Drugs and Cheap Immagrant Labor.(Schlosser also wrote Fast Food Nation.)

    What is so crazy about seeing these numbers is that--according to Sclosser's extensive research--can all be linked back to one man; Rueben Sturman--the Godfather and mastermind behind modern day pornucopia.

    I think we have bigger issues at hand instead of porn. So far, the responses I have read are just people who like to demonize the very idea of a sexual act. And of course, porn is one of the hot topics (when it shouldn't be).

    In my opinion, porn is porn. I personally do not believe watching pornography causes cheating and divorce. And to solei10, divorce lawyers and judges are not the best specialists to ask for the causes of divorce and cheating. So far, there is no correlation of any kind between pornography and divorces and cheating. If there, show it to me. I've studied statistics and I'll tell you if that research was bogus or not.

    Again, porn is porn. We have other issues at hand. Let's move on. And also, don't bring the idea of morals into this. I find people who rant about what is moral very annoying.

    Porn will exist as long as these pre-requirements meets:

    1. There must have Men evolved.
    2. There must be a presence of a sexual repressive society.

    The rest is just history and profits!

    If I were the head of one of those networks I would start showing porn after midnight.

    Sexual Morality??? How many websites are there for that? Humans are not so one dimensional that we can't love and be promiscous and be sexual deviants etc etc. all at the same time.

    If men spend all this time looking at porn on the web what are women looking at? I think woman probably lie when asked if they watch porn so the numbers are lower. I've never met a girl over 18 who hasn't seen any porn.

    There is lot's of lesbian porn out there with no men involved stopnoise.

    How is this even news worthy, the porn industry is running strong and always will because SEX WILL ALWAYS SELL. And as for sexual morality, that is something each person has to have for themselves. It is a personal choice to have morals as much as it is to watch porn. Watching porn does not make a person bad or give them bad morales, usually just makes them tired or the sex better that night.

    I know that I would rather have a husband who jerks it to porn than screwing the skank next door.

    @observer2121 Doesn't Cinemax already do that?

    And one thing you can say about porn is it certainly drives innovation. It's always first in finding new ways to be distributed. The expansion of VCR and web sites to name a few.

    We are sexual beings? Excuse for the lack of control people have? An excuse to do as you wish, is more like it. Moral it isn't and morality is not subjective. Take pride in being immoral because fun is all you care to do no matter the decay on society it is having. Decay doesn't mean quickly dying, either. Decay happens slow and methodically. Rotting from the inside out is how most kingdoms have fallen.

    I'm not going to sit here and argue about porn and masturbation. To each his own. Goodbye Current, hello Youporn. . .

    "Sexual morality"... this is coming from a person living in a country where shows like "Who wants to Marry a Millionaire,"The Bachelor, and "Next" originated and were huge successes.
