New Study Says Watching Porn Does Not Affect Sexual Habits
Huff Po – Porn gets blamed for corrupting the minds of pretty much anyone who views it, soa new study suggesting its effects on young people may be minimal has many porn stars feeling, well, gratified. The study, published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine, did not show a direct correlation between viewing porn and going out and attempting wild sex acts in real life, suggesting porn is only one factor among many that may influence the sexual behaviors of young people, according to Time.com. Researchers in the Netherlands conducted an online survey of 4,600 people between ages 15-25 and discovered that 90 percent of the males and nearly half of females had used porn in the previous 12 months. Dana Vespoli, a performer and director with Sweetheart Video and Evil Angel, said the study demonstrates that blaming porn for society’s ills is silly. “The idea that pornography in and of itself causes problematic sexual behavior is absurd in the same way that listening to Marilyn Manson doesn’t turn you into a serial killer or watching Michael Bay movies doesn’t turn you into a pyromaniac,” she told The Huffington Post. Melissa Monet said the study shows that pornography didn’t create sexual curiosity anymore than it creates sexual deviants. “Hell, there are plenty of sex acts I’ve seen, but never engaged in, and I would venture to say, I’m no shrinking violet,” she told HuffPost.
I understand what this study is saying. Not like porn breeds sex offenders and shit like that. Listening to Marilyn Manson doesn’t make you a murderer. Playing shoot em up video games doesn’t make you go shoot up your school. But here’s the difference with porn: I want to do all the weird shit I see in porn. I don’t want to kill people. I don’t wan’t to be violent. But I absolutely want fishhook a girl while doing her doggystyle. I want to put my cum in places it absolutely does not belong. I want to try that position where the girl puts her legs completely over her head, puts all the weight of her body on the back of her neck, balances here back against the couch, and I squat and pile drive her. And where did I learn all of those things? Porn. I understand that if a girl watches porn she may not go do a double anal scene. I understand that a guy doesn’t become a sexual predator from browsing youjizz. But do not tell me watching porn doesn’t affect my sexual behavior. If it wasn’t for porn I’d probably be “making love” missionary. Now I contemplate whether I can get away with open hand or closed fist hitting. I’m sure deep down I’m just naturally a sick pervert but porn gives me the green light and the courage to try it all.
