I don't think anybody should be able to dictate whats right or wrong for people to view. Although on Oddguys view i agree, anything remotely focused around harming others for sexual/perverse gratification should be banned and the person distributing/making it should be executed. However, porn is a healthy tool used by teenagers to explore their sexuality and to explore what turns them on/doesn't turn them on. Not only that but it is keeping the porn industry in business.

Now, i used to do the typical teenage thing of downloading it/looking at it etc and i feel it helped me to develop as a person.

Now, there's the whole topic of what one class' as porn. Will this include erotic literature? Semi-nakedness? Men/women scantily clad with lotion rubbed into their skin? At the end of the day, there's going to be something everybody is aroused by, from animals to chairs. From 3sums to Giraffes. You can't censor everything.

Anyway, at the end of the day if you abolish pornography, which allows people to fulfill their sexual desires by themselves, you will inevitably cause a sudden surge of people fulfilling their fantasies by actually performing those acts in real life. Which, in some instances, is IMMENSLY dangerous.

'People like me use it for information purposes.'

Certain types of "porn" can be used as information. Such as how to stimulate a woman/man so she/he has a stronger climax. Ban the stuff that causes harm to the participants, but don't ban the whole lot. Its ridiculous.
