I think there are many porn videos that I watched at that age and have since forgotten even existed… (I had no erotic interest in watching them; they just happened to appear in front of me and I ignored them.) at the same time, I will never forget a beautiful video game website I saw—could it have traumatized me with its stunning aesthetics?
“Reporting addiction to pornography” doesn’t necessarily mean that you are addicted. Many people, in everyday language, claim to have addictions, depression, etc., without a real diagnosis, and given the era we live in—where young people are persuaded not to masturbate despite the fact that doing so helps prevent prostate cancer—I wouldn’t be surprised if such self-declarations have very little to do with reality.
'I didn't know humans looked like that'
And no one considers this… serious? I don’t know how healthy it is for a member of the human species not to know what the human species looks like.
It was scary. I didn't know human beings looked like that," she said. "I'm a child, I've not seen that. I thought someone was killing the other person. I thought it was torture.
…like a dog that sees its owners having sex and then attacks one of them. You know what prevents such actions? Sex education, and perhaps treating pornography as something extremely normal. Then I find it somewhat comical that they already had an image of murder, but then seeing a murder that wasn’t actually one was the real problem.
Damn, I don’t want to treat badly a person who may have genuinely been traumatized. But I think I actually saw a video of a murder when I was six and was less traumatized than they were, so… uh.
