Dallin Coons’s Reviews > Ethical Porn for Dicks: A Man s Guide to Responsible Viewing Pleasure > Status Update

Research on this shows that trying to control someone’s sexuality actually makes them more dissatisfied with their current relationship, decreases their commitment, and increases their interest in pursuing an extramarital relationship. It also increases how much attention the people pay to other attractive people and how well they remember them.

There has been a tremendous amount of panicked hyperbole about porn use, with doomsayers claiming that viewing porn triggers dangerous neurochemical changes in the brain. But research says that it just ain’t so, and the brains of people who are high users of porn look like the brains of people with high libidos, NOT people whose brains have been warped by sex and porn.

Our society is starting to celebrate and empower female sexuality now with Slutwalks and feminist activists embracing their ability to like sex just as much as men. Some of these activists watch porn, and some make porn. Perhaps these women can change the gender battle over porn and sex, from being about control and fear of sex.
