It's been a big topic in my dorm lately, us being a brotherhood and all, and it's come to my attention that pornography is actually a pretty big problem in our society today.

I guess I just don't realize how bad because I've never looked it up. Does that sound weird? I mean, I'm almost 19, in college, etc. My little brother in high school has a problem with porn.

But, seriously, I kid you not, (and I know this is weird) naked girls turn me OFF. I want to look at naked women about as much as I want to look at naked men--which is not at all. I mean, it's not that I cry out in terror at the site of a naked person, it just doesn't arouse me at all to see a naked women, and does the opposite for some reason.

Anyway, I'm just sort of wondering how often people do look pornography. Obviously, this is about honesty. You don't have to vote, so please be honest if you do. I'm rather curious about this, as it's something I don't understand.

LOL j/k
Seeing you-know-the-female-region-that-I'm talking-about in pictures, hairy or not, just doesn't turn me on that much.
Bikini chicks, on the other hand...

EDIT: WTF what happened to the pic

I'm in a guys dorm and lets just say for us porns a natural part of life. Brotherhoods are usually full of worthless shit about who gets furthest with some girl or something like that and personally i think its just plain stupid.

Oh. My 'brotherhood' isn't about bragging. We're in a Christian community, and the guys here are really open, honest, and humble about things. (not to say it's perfect in the least around here, but...) The guys here aren't happy if they've had sex, they're ashamed.

And by the way, contrary to what my dad might think, no, I'm not gay.
I'll admit, I seem to think like a girl when it comes to dating, etc., but I'm most definitely straight.

Actually, even girls in a bikini don't really excite me. It depends on how skimpy the bathing suit is. When it's to the point where they may as well be naked, it's kind of disgusting to me.

Its cool to not like naked people. Even understandable. No big deal....I mean, sex with clothes can be just as hot, if not hotter, than sex naked. So you wont really miss out on much anyway.

But how is porn a "problem?"

Also: It wont let me vote. What the hell?

Nevermind, I figured out how the voting works on this forum XD

Um...See, that's the thing: I don't care about sex. I'm not interested in sticking my penis into another human being. At least not right now. Gonna wait until I find one I really care about and whom I want to start a family with. Guess I'm 'old-fashioned' in that respect.
Or maybe it's that I respect women more thab my penis.

Porn is a 'problem' because it's like smoking. It's an addiction that isn't entirely healthy. I mean, no it's not gonna ruin your lungs. But I dunno. It may ruin your respect toward women (or men) on a sexual level.

Kind of like how if your parents swear, you swear more often than you would.
But in a religious context, porn is bad because it promotes lust, and lust is bad.
But I just sorta think it's disgusting and sad that pictures of naked women have become a pass time for many guys. *shrug* Just how I feel about it.

My little brother looking up porn and printing it out and hiding it under his pillow..see, that's a problem to me.

Just because youre 'old fashioned(?)' and want to wait for the "right" person before you have sex doesnt mean that its not important or that you cant have fun with it with that person. Theres a difference between thinking sex with anyone other than your soul mate is wrong and thinking all sex is some sort of crime against man and God. Unless youre one of those people that thinks that getting any pleasure from sex at all is a sin and that sex for any purpose other than procreation is wrong...then I dont really understand what the big deal is. Im not saying that you should go fuck random people on the street, just that sex with your clothes on is hot. You can have hot sex with your wife. More importantly, you can have hot sex with your wife and still respect her.


"Porn is a 'problem' because it's like smoking. It's an addiction that isn't entirely healthy." Any addiction, by definition, is unhealthy.

"It may ruin your respect toward women (or men) on a sexual level." Sorry, I dont mean to disrespect you, but this is a silly argument. Its like those people who say that video games make people violent. Within most people, there is a known line between fantasy and reality. If someone learns from a videogame that violence is an effective solution to your problems, that means that they did not learn otherwise from another source. There are many sources from which to learn this lesson. Its is the JOB of one specific source in particular to impart such wisdom as this.

Thats right. Your parent(s) or guardian(s). Please do not punish the people who know "right" from "wrong" because some dumbshit's parents never taught him that shooting innocent bystanders and stealing cars was wrong, and that just because something seems "cool" on paper doesnt mean it is cool, realistic, or even ok, and then played GTA and figured that he could get free money and cars if he did that. Punish him and his parents, not me. Dont even put me into the same category as that guy.

By the same token...just because some guy's parents never properly taught him "Hey, sex is great I know but in your quest to get laid dont forget that those are real people with real emotions, not objects for your pleasure." and then watched some porn and came away with the idea that all girls are easy bimbos....dont group us all together. Im sorry that guy didnt get the proper attention as a kid, but that doesnt mean that everyone who watches porn is an asshole.

Yes, excessive amounts of just about anything is bad for you. Porn is no exception. But it is neither the fault of porn itself nor the average porn viewer that some people are assholes.

"Kind of like how if your parents swear, you swear more often than you would.
But in a religious context, porn is bad because it promotes lust, and lust is bad.
But I just sorta think it's disgusting and sad that pictures of naked women have become a pass time for many guys. *shrug* Just how I feel about it."

I said it in another thread. Swearing and lust being bad, religion being good...this is all subjective. You are entitled to your opinion, to be sure. You are not, however, entitled to forcing your views onto others. Not that youve been trying to do that...you seem pretty mellow and low key about the whole thing, not like Im some horrible monster because I feel differently, and I really appreciate that. I'm just saying.

"My little brother looking up porn and printing it out and hiding it under his pillow..see, that's a problem to me."

Im going to make some assumptions about age here, and say that thats just your brother turning into a young man. He's either just hit puberty and discovering sex might be pretty cool, or he's just hit full swing (about fifteen...I find this to be the more likely case) and is also getting bolder and more rebellious. He wants the porn, but he doesnt want to get caught. So he gets it, prints it so he can keep it, deletes it from the computer and hides it so he doesnt get caught. Part shame, part fear, all hormones. If it really bugs you, and youre more than a year or two older than him (even three is a little iffy...) and he respects you at all....you might want to sit down with him. I wouldnt rat him out, that could crush your relationship. But just (gently) probe him about how he feels towards women, make sure he's not turning into an asshole...that sorta thing. If you want to give him the whole "Porn and sex are bad, mmkay?" thing...thats up to you.

Damnit. I didnt want this one to become a long rant. Oh well....sorry about that.

LOL. Nothing wrong with rants when they're not flat-out rude.

I'm sorry if I upset you or offended you. I didn't mean to, and I don't think I was being a jerk about it--not that you said I was.

I understand what you're saying. I suppose I should clarify: I brought up religion because I'm going to a very Christian college, and so religion is on everyone's minds. I'm not particularly religious. I mean, yea, I'm a Christian, and I pray once in a while, I go to church, but it doesn't control who I am or what I think.

I don't think sex is wrong. I just see sex as something more sacred than just getting it on and getting hot, etc. If that's all a guy is interested in, he may as well just masterbate, because that's just physical. To me, sex is something I want to save for that special someone, and give it only to her.

Sex is a beautful thing. It's how we create life. Its how we express love. To me, degrading it to an animalistic source of pleasure just isn't how I roll with it. If others want to do that, sure, go for it.

And you're very right about the influences parents have on their children. What I was saying is that if a guy starts f5cking girls in high school when he hardly knows them, sex probably isn't going to be something special for him. It's just going to be this materialistic thing. And that could hurt the girls he does it with, because they may think it's special, and he'll think nothing of it.

My brother is in 11th grade, and I'm a freshman in college. I don't think it's my place to talk to him because I've never looked up porn, so I don't know how addicting it can be.
Besides, my parents found oiut on themselves. That's how I found out.
Also, I'm in college now--I don't see my family that much.
My parents have things under control. As far as they're concerned, he can look up porn all he wants outside of the house, but they don't want porn in their house, and I think that's a pretty good argument on their behalf.
Do bear in mind that my family isn't religious at all, by the way. We live across the street from a church, and none of us go there.

But just don't assume I think sex is bad. Just remember that drugs aren't bad, either, until they're abused. And sex can certainly be abused, too. That's all I'm saying.

Anyway, thanks for putting some good input into the conversation. Some food for thought.

I honestly started this thread more out of curiosity than anything, so some substantial conversation is welcomed.

Why yes, I am fucking gay, you stupid fucking breeder.

On topic:
While I can see a case for the human form in general being not particularly exciting in a sexual sense, I find it difficult to believe that the human form acutally makes you feel distinctly *un-sexual*.

Methinks perhaps you're living in a rather rarified stratum, and you're detaching yourself a bit *too* much in order to look at things with reason and objectivitiy.

I don't think that's it.

I mean, don't get me wrong, it's not the female body doesn't turn me on--it does. The female human form does not turn me off. Just...bare-naked, it does.

I just find that girls turn me on when they're wearing clothes, and don't when they're not. I know I'm weird, but I don't know why that is.

It's not that I go, "Oh, my GOODNESS! NEKKID PEOPLE!" and run away. It's just...Meh. And sometimes, ick. But that's just naked people in general.

I'm not all that reasonable when it comes to girls. I think I just place the emotional connection on a distinctly different level. I mean, a girl can be attractive, but if she acts like a bitch and a slut, it makes her less attractive to me.

Likewise, the girl I like right now isn't as physically attractive as many other girls I know, but somehow, she turns me on more than the rest. It's hard to explain.

Your last sentence was a bit of non-sequitur, I wasn't aware that being naked had anything to do with being a bitch and a slut. Or that porn had anything to do with those qualities either.

And yeah, I can see that, sometimes a guy gains several levels of über-hot when he's partially clothed.

In the listed example, it's the anticipation that makes it sexy.

I told you, it doesn't make sense. If it made sense, I wouldn't be puzzled by it.
And my last statement's purpose was to explain that it's not purely physical for me.
There is some sort of emotional connection I seem to need in order to really be attracted to a girl. So it wasn't a non-sequitur so much--bitchy girls who I have negative emotions toward turn me off, but one I have positive emotions toward is more likely to turn me on, persay.

I also didn't say that naked/porn = bitchy, so please don't misinterpret. I just said that both turn me off somehow. Don't ask why, because I can't tell you as I don't really know. That's just how it is. A smile warms my heart much more than a glare from hell.
How are guys sometimes attracted to guys? I have no idea. They just are.
If we knew why we were attracted to things we are, then people could simply alter their own sex drives at a whim. But we can't do that, now, can we?
If we knew why homosexuals were attracted to the same sex rather than the opposite, then the whole 'gay = evil' argument among bloody Bible-thumpers would be put to rest.

I guess I'm just weird, as stated earlier. Thank you for re-iterating.

Right, exactly!

Please don't think I'm shunning you guys! I'm not! I'm merely posing the question.
I mean, you can ask me why porn doesn't turn me on, and I could ask you why it DOES.

I'm just sort of wondering how often and how common it is for people to look it up.

D3stiny_Sm4sher,

Why does your group think sex is shameful? I totally agree that its nothing to brag about, but if everyone thought sex was shameful the human race would be extinct.
PS, about my Bikini comment, I lied. That doesn't turn me on that much either. More than naked shots, but nowhere near as much as the pr0n-addicts would get turned on around here.
PPS, I never look up porn. I might stumble upon it unintentionally once in a blue moon but I don't ever intentionally look it up. Besides, most sites either install spyware or expect you to pay.

I'm not sure what to vote under, its rather random and it isn't regular. It's not like I put up times every weak that I use for the sole purpose of looking up porn. It's more like... "Hey, I think I'll look up porn, even though I haven't done it in a month!"

However, one thing I don't like about porn is if they're actually fucking. That's not a turn on for some reason.
