So what is the score with internet pawn?
Discussion
If you are a male PH'er and you've never looked at internet porn, then you are either a liar or need to seek medical help.
There, that makes me feel better about having the odd peek when the wife is out!
But what is the score with online porn? Once upon a time, hardcore was hardcore, but now it has evolved into all sorts of weird and wonderful 'categories'. I can only assume all that is visible on well known free sites like Pornhub, are legal to watch in the UK and the actors are consenting adults. But is that incorrect? Obviously kiddie fiddling and farm yard activity is well beyond the limits and understandably! But what of the rest? There seems to be a lot of bondage type stuff out there and maybe that's just due to influences from 50 Shades. There's also a lot of gagging going on, which personally turns me off, but whatever floats your boat I suppose.
So in a nutshell, are all of us who sometimes look at this stuff (and sometimes you don't even know what you'll be watching until you've seen some of it), breaking the law? Where and how is the line drawn?

I've got to say it does make me wonder, especially with these new regulations on "extreme porn", for which there is no proper definition. One mans extreme is another mans vanilla.
It's a ridiculous law - and what gets me is that if you're caught with this stuff you can end up on the bloody sex offenders register, name plastered across the papers, council tenants firebombing your house (you must be a "peedo", right?), lose your job and shunned by friends a family. Ludicrous.

It's just that sort of thing that made me wonder in the first place. Nothing is clear.It's a ridiculous law - and what gets me is that if you're caught with this stuff you can end up on the bloody sex offenders register, name plastered across the papers, council tenants firebombing your house (you must be a "peedo", right?), lose your job and shunned by friends a family.

I've never downloaded any porn, but have browsed the free well known sites...like Xhamster (). Does that mean I've broken the law? Is someone snooping on me? Am I going to get banged up with Mr Big in the showers!
There's this strange thing in the UK where everyone pretends to be so straight laced and yet we're all the same. If you got nicked for watching something apparently extreme, you'd be marched off by someone who has watched the same stuff, then sentenced by someone else who also has watched it!

I'm pretty sure that there's a fair bit of stuff that is very easily viewable on say Xhamster could be classed as "extreme" these days. I understand that has its own category on largeporntube
Maybe
Personally I think the availability of porn and the good quality have had a dentrimental affect on people's sex lives and perceptions of what is totally normal.
One extreme is the desensitisation of "abnormal" sex acts, two girls one cup, one guy one jar etc which then become normal and fail to get us aroused or repulsed.
Young teens now growing up thinking that porn movies are normal and guys are studs and woman always go crazy (yes. Normal for me. Right?) is the way it is.
I prefer the days of porno mags in bushes. Oh the innocence.

Not always. I've dealt with a couple of cases where material has been shared using mobile phone apps. The recipients didn't request it, but a "friend" thought it would be funny to share it with them.iambeowulf said:

That's an interesting point...I was chatting with a younger lady recently (I'm 47) and she was relating that she and a few of her friends are totally put off by guys their own age approach to sex.

Seems a lot of this has come from internet porn and expectations are ridiculous in terms of what girls are supposed to do.
