In reading this, bear in mind that I don?t care if other adults look at porn. I just know that I can?t, you can't or your SO can't:
Everything. Everything around you started with a thought or an idea. Here is an idea that needs to be created and brought into reality.
Why isn?t pornography regulated like alcohol, cigarettes, guns, etc.?
Porn could be regulated so use would be limited to adults. If an adult wanted to look at porn they would register so as to prove they are an adult. I guess it is because of how the internet works it seems difficult to regulate. We could control porn within our borders, but porn from outside the United States will come in anyway. There has to be a solution to this. It starts with a thought.
It?s shame that kids (future adults) have such easy access to this. This is similar to giving kids as many guns as the want (for free) then finishing it up by loading them up with liquor bottles, cigarettes and letting them gamble as much as they want. Where would that lead?
Oh my God!
In regards to porn addiction, when I quit smoking pot 30 years ago (another of my addictions), I stopped going to my dealer?s home. That made it possible to stop. How would things have turned out if everywhere I went there were burning joints laying around, mine for the taking? Hello.
You can think about this like an alcoholic working the 12 steps in AA, but there are open liquor bottles sitting around for the taking, everywhere he or she goes, including the AA meetings.
In my opinion there has to be a way to regulate porn use. I?m not an IT person so I don?t know what it would take, but imagine if easy access to porn stopped right now, today. How many men would quit porn and go back to being the men there were supposed to be? Imagine how that would change, for the better, a lot of relationships harmed by porn use. There are so many women suffering because of this easy access. Could turn theirs and our pain, the suffering to productive use?
Many of the guys in the noporn forums struggle to make it 30 days without porn. The only way to stop the addiction is through sheer will power and/or threats from their partners. There has to be a better way.
I couldn?t do it myself, but a group numbering in the 100s of thousands could. Throw in religious backing and I?m sure we could change the way things are. I'm not talking about bitching and moaning in a forum. I am talking about what we need to do, real world, to fix this. We can find away to regulate who looks at and has access to porn. We could use the internet to create a change. I know that the porn industry with all the cash they have would fight back tooth and nail, but there are more of us and we vote.
I would be willing to fight for porn regulation as best as I could. I'm not sure how to get started but I bet we could figure it out.
It starts with a thought and an idea.
I would love to get feedback, good and bad on this. If you have an idea of how to get the process started I'm all ears.
