a few consequences of abundant easily accessible porn
The author of this GQ article shares her experiences with sex and dating in the era of easy access porn. What she has found is it is not subtle. There is no build up. There is no personal exploration. She says it isn’t so much like sex as it is more like masturbation with a fellow 3-D person. You finish with your hand, after all, like you’ve done with a million clips.  And well, that doesn’t sound like a whole lot of fun. Sex with a partner should be different than masturbation. Am I crazy for thinking that?
The World Wide Web of money shots has produced an unholy number of guys my age who think or maybe even know better but can’t really help themselves because it’s the stuff their penises were raised on, that coming on a woman is a totally normal thing to do. After a third or fourth date. Before you even know her parents’ names or her college major or what she wanted to be when she grew up (a Wookie! But no matter). As if it’s just the standard end to the sex act. As if the birds-and-the-bees speech fathers give to sons goes: “Sometimes when a man loves a woman very, very much and they want to start a family, he finishes on her chest.”

Another author, Cindy Gallop, spoke at Ted in 2009 about how the easy access to porn and the porn content itself has changed how young men have sex. She also has a neat site about not generalizing what you see in porn.
I also have read how young men are having more sexual dysfunction when with a partner because they are used to masturbating in a certain way. I have been with such guys both in and out of the porn business who need very specific (and often what seems to me as very aggressive manipulation of their penis by their own hand to achieve orgasm). I also have had one lover who doesn’t look at porn and has excellent sexual function with me and others. He told me when he masturbates he uses his own memories (I am this way as well). Porn is not his thing. It just one example, but it makes sense to me.
All of this makes me curious as to how this type of thing has changed the way young women have sex. Let me know if you know of any articles or research about this.
