Porn = adultery?
Water-cooler article of the year. Does anyone else find the phrase “pornography use” a pretty creepy euphemism?
The Volgi’s main concern with the spread of pornography is that, exposed to ubiquitous porn from youth, some kids today (mostly boys, to whom porn is more attractive) may grow up with such a skewed sexual sensibility that they’re unable to have a normal sexual life down the road, creating a built-in fault line for marital failures in addition to the on-going threat that some of the compulsives described in Douthat’s article above have succumbed to, wrecking their marriages. (Possibly to include Dead to Me Dave.)
Absent a social and legal revolution, it ain’t going away, though. How the hell do we manage this?
Don’t ask impertinent questions like that jackass Adept Lu.
