I think that porn itself is morally neutral. It can be a sexual outlet for people who might otherwise feel compelled to act out on others who do not consent.
Except that porn only makes people more lustful and perverse. The more porn you watch the less you desire meaningful relationships, and the more you see people as sexual objects. It's bad in numerous other verifiable ways as well.
Sex is natural. I can't think of anyone I know that is not a result of sex. I think your argument lacks nuance...
Sex is natural. Porn is not natural.
Proof? Pornographic images have a very long history. Some are even in art museums.

I can't think of any reason as to why porn shouldn't be made illegal. Porn sites are built to trap people in addiction, especially young kids who don't know any better. Porn itself is completely undignified and the people in it are often coerced into doing it. Porn incentivizes human trafficking and treats people like objects. Ban it.
Is it safe to assume that you haven't been "getting any"?
Sorry, but that is uncalled for.
Since when is asking if an assumption is safe "uncalled for"?

Not quite what I meant. We can disagree with the assumption, but lets play the ball and not the person.

Of course! Just as soon as he presents some logical arguments with valid data to back them up; then we can "play ball" your way. Until then, I'm going to keep asking questions until he posts a reasonable answer that is not all wrapped up in archaic puritanical beliefs.

Why can't people just recognize their addiction? If your watching porn day in and day out it is a problem and a problem that faces a lot of teens. Teens can easily access these sites and get their addiction started. Easiest way is to ban it. No one needs it, it is not a necessity.
