So, as you all know, anyone can look at porn on the internet. Porn is accessible to minors, anyone who has a search engine can look it up. So don't you think it's our responsibility to make sure that it's not accessible?

Should Loaf be allowed on the Internet?

So, as you all know, anyone can look at Loaf on the internet. Loaf is accessible to minors like Ender, anyone who has a search engine can look him up. So don't you think it's our responsibility to make sure that he's not accessible?

Yeah Id support that

Did your parents love you as a child?

Yeah, by restricting your child's access to the Internet--not the public's access to pornography.

But this will inevitably lead to children seeing pornography.

Not if you're a responsible parent who knows how to apply the appropriate levels of supervision and restrict access when necessary.

If a kid sees a porn site, it's really not that big of a deal anyway. It really isn't. Just carefully and sternly explain to him that what he saw was "for adults only" and not to visit that website again. If he doesn't listen, WHO CARES--it's just fucking porn. I've watched porn since I was twelve. It's not the end of the world if your kid likes watching porn.

And if he's like, eight years old, why the fuck are you letting him on the Internet anyway? If you're old enough to use the Internet by yourself without supervision, you're old enough to watch porn (so, 12+ preferably above). That's my opinion.

By far the most idiotic thing you've ever said

Everything I say is, at worst, the smartest thing anyone could possibly say about any subject.

I'm sorry your parents sucked unbelievably--that doesn't mean the rest of us would. Shoot yourself.

Except everything you said above contradicts pretty much all science on the subject
And your only support was that you've watched porn since you were 12 but you forgot the fact that you came out to be a moron with the shittiest opinions so next time you use your opinion as support, know that it's worthless

Except everything you said above contradicts pretty much all science on the subject

YES, and a little ten your old Asiatic twerp on the Internet knows ALL ABOUT that! 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌

you came out to be a moron with the shittiest opinions

You must have me confused with someone else. I'm actually a brilliant genius who has the best possible opinions, and your Freudian psychology where sexuality is the root of all personality and behavior has no place in the 21st century.

It's not like you'd ever be able to enforce it short of going full best korea.

Even then people would find a way.

Wait... you mean like... actually taking some personal responsibility and actually parenting my children? Are you a fucking madman?

True, responsible parenting is pretty out there. I can see why that little Vietnamese kid is upset with me now.

I don't know how you can call yourself a liberal anymore though, Verb.
Personal responsibility is a pretty foreign concept to the ban happy left. Dare I say that anymore its almost exclusively... Libertarian?

Porn reinforces untrue stereotypes of what sex and relationships actually are. Porn can become a damaging habit.

People are retarded, but personally, I'd still grant them the ability to realize that you're not going to get your dick sucked in the real world just because you fixed your neighbor's pipes. Most people aren't that stupid.

I'm more worried about it becoming an addiction more than anything. People can easily fall into a cycle where porn fills their sexual desires, rather than going to meet people and fullfilling their true sexuality.

I don't see this as an issue either. Like, so someone is content with beating their dick for the rest of their life instead of getting in a real relationship where they'll more than likely be miserable and broke rather than happy and la-di-da. Who cares?

If you're the type of person who's willing to waste their life trying to get into some kind of relationship with somebody, feel free--but I don't see why a porn addiction should be that much of a concern to anybody. If you're the type of person to get addicted to porn, you're probably not all that interested in intimacy in the first place.

Speaking as someone who quit watching porn ages ago.

Or you actually crave intimacy and acceptance but can never find it so you develop an excessive masturbation habit because of the dopamine rush from orgasm and eventually you just accept life as a porn addict working his way down the rabbit hole in to increasingly depraved and taboo fetish material to the point where real women with normal sexual wants no longer interest you, but that's fine because you never liked women as people anyway because you harbor deeply rooted subconscious hatred for your mother left over from early childhood.

this is hilarious and sad at the same time

The internet is made up of servers largely hosted by companies and civilian individuals, it's not a government driven infrastructure. The very concept of the internet is based on free communication between computer network. Anything and everything will be found online, and it couldn't be restricted or interfered with in any way save for preventing real life crimes being planned.

If a person can't handle the internet, they shouldn't use it or stay away from the sites that they find offensive. If that person is unable to make that choice for themselves (for example if they're a minor) than the legal guardian for that person shouldn't let them.

I don't like right-wing extremist propaganda, but I don't go to stormfront and then bitch about it being there.
