Porn is definitely unhealthy so probably a good thing they got that on steam now? Though that still won’t stop people from going to other sites to get porn games. I wouldn’t go as far as calling them pedos though, porn addiction doesn’t make one a pedo. It does make them sad and lonely though.
Correlation does not equal causation. Also if you really think women undressing and doing porn for the pleasure of the men is somehow liberating of makes them free, I don’t think you actually care about women as people. So many of them end up doing this kind of thing because they need money and stuff and never wanted to do it in the first place.

You just described most people doing most jobs.
Pretty sure most people wouldn’t work in whatever job they have if they didn’t need the money.
Likewise, there’s many who likely prefer doing porn over working in fast food or retail. After all, in one you get demeaned, mistreated, even abused, and in the other you get to orgasm for money.

Way to just say that women and LGBT+ don’t like porn.
Says a lot more about you than anything else you’ve said, bigot.
PS: when the correlation is extremely strong and repeatable, it usually implies causation. There’s already research that proves that link isn’t just correlation. Not that it seems you’re actually interested in data or good faith discussion.
If your job is honestly comparable to that of a reluctant sex worker, you really need to switch jobs.

This is a completly wrong conceptualization.
Porn “stars” often are often locked into filming increasingly extreme and often increasingly violent content. Many are left back traumatized for life.
This article challenges the consumer-centric view of pornography, which overlooks the exploitation and abuse of individuals documented in its production. The lack of conceptual clarity surrounding the nature of pornography obscures these abuses, leading to significant consequences for those affecte

Op might or might not be, but i am. Please feel free to back up your claim with data.

This isn’t the 90s. OnlyFans creators aren’t beholden to an agency, which the paper you linked to mentions about.
30% is still pretty damn big, especially in context of how many human adults there are. That’s still a potential of over a billion people by rough estimate based off a set of 4 billion.
Please feel free to back up your claim with data.
Looking through the comments here, it seems you already have been, but still don’t care.
Looking at porn doesn’t mean you have a porn addiction. It’s also not unhealthy.
Playing a porn game also doesn’t mean you have a porn addiction.
It’s only an addiction if it affects your life negatively.
Porn gives one pleasure and more pleasure is objectively a good thing, unless it affects you in a bad way, like certain kinds of drugs.
It is unhealthy. Not only does it make it so people have unrealistic expectation in bed (due to watching porn and thinking it should be the same) but also there are always victims in porn and the porn industry is full of human trafficking and minors showing up in porn is not uncommon on porn sites. It’s just damaging to society and no, pleasure is not objectively a good thing. Just because something gives one pleasure doesn’t make it good or even healthy. Life is not all about hedonism.
Not only does it make it so people have unrealistic expectation in bed
That’s more due to shitty sex ed. A good instructor will state clearly that porn isn’t realistic.
but also there are always victims in porn and the porn industry is full of human trafficking
“Always” is a big stretch here. Does it happen? Yes. But not always. And it’s better handled through industry regulation than outright banning. All banning would do is drive it underground and make it even more exploitative
If you generate expectations from what you see in media they are always going to be unrealistic regardless of what it is. Every industry has its share of scum but you cant throw it all out because of bad people doing bad things. The fault lies within those people not the industry.
Well, all communist countries have banned porn too. I think you’re getting somewhere now. I don’t like capitalism either because of its exploitative nature. Pornography is just harmful to society.
if playing these sorts of games makes you sad and lonely, that’s a problem.
but if you are already sad and lonely, and playing these sorts of games makes you feel less so, that’s a good thing.
people that say things like what you said seriously underestimate how many people in the world have trouble forming (healthy) relationships, regardless of the games the play.
the internet and computers could disappear and those people still wouldn’t be better off; they’d just have fewer options.
and that sort of thing affects lots of different kinds of people: those suffering from mental disorders like depression, autism, various trauma, other conditions that make forming relationships difficult. those with physical handicaps, having similar issues about finding partners. and more.
I’m lucky enough to be able to have largely normal relationships (when i want to, when I’m in good enough a place to give it an honest go), but when i was in the deepest pits of depression that just wasn’t an option. and i still craved some of that…so various kinds of smut filled that need quite well, temporarily.
not a great solution long term, but it is definitely a net positive for a LOT of people!

No, it’s not. Who told you that?
Look at all the countries which block / ban porn.
Now look at women’s rights in those same countries.
I’ll let you draw your own conclusions.

See, for example, this study.
About 70% of consumers are men.

There’s literally research done on that & it only means porn for men will get banned.

The major point of your argument is just an argument against capitalism.

What communist countries?
