    Are you really comparing watching something, to the physical action of smoking?

      Do you really think watching porn has no effect on a person? Also I was referring to second-hand smoke.

          Yes it does. Both are examples of something demonstrably bad, and one person saying, “well it didn’t negatively affect one person, so it must be fine!”

          Not only is a sample size of one useless, but unless OP is claiming to be fully well adjusted with great mental health and no negative feelings towards woman(implicit bias included), and no participation in the patriarchy, they can’t really claim to know constant consumption of porn has no negative effect.

            All of that existed long before the internet. In fact it was probably worse pre-internet. So the sites could be entirely unrelated.
