Anyone have a reason?

[Kontroll]

I'm 15, ive had very happy and long relationships in the past, im happy with my body and although im a guy, i think woman are smarter and better than men...
on the other hand, i watch porn. I have for a long time, and i dont think its hurt me in the least. I can see why youre not supposed to watch it til youre 18 or 21, but why are all the parents not only against porn, but so deathly afraid of their children seeing it? I first saw porn when i was like 8 and again, it didnt have any bad or longterm effects on me...
i just dont get it, does anyone here understand or do you guys agree with me?

lol women as a whole are not better or smarter than men, people need to stop generalizing and treat each person as an individual.

many adults are easily influenced by other's opinions, let alone children and teenagers.... if they see something in the media, in real life, or on the internet that they think will make others value and respect them, most people are going to do it, regardless of the consequences.

people are impressionable--especially at young ages and parents (as well as the government) don't want young adults and children taking part in "activities" that they are not mentally, physically, financially, and/or emotionally ready to deal with.

of course there will be exceptions to this rule, but all laws in our society are made based on the majority, and the majority of us are immature, ignorant, and irresponsible.

I have also watched porn for a long time and so far no major effect have undertaken in me.

Absolutely no effect, and I have been watching it daily for over a year.

Yup. Also, a point that can be made, is since you started looking at porn, you might start making it a habit. :P I'm not against porn, but it can influence some teens to view people as a sexual object opposed to a person. Points can be made towards either side. :P
