1. Internet pornography has no serious consequences. Pornography in general results in the demeaning of human beings (most likely woman), resulting in viewing other people as objects of pleasure, instead of individuals with personal feelings, thoughts and preferences.


2. Affection is all very well, but sooner or later there has to be sex for a relationship to grow. Many relationships flourish and develop without sexual intercourse. Physical affection, ranging from holding hands to hugging, kissing and caressing are all ways of developing the physical side of a meaningful relationship.


3. Pornography can help you understand what is needed in a relationship.Pornography presents a warped and selfish idea of what a relationship is all about. A better guide to understanding would be respectful listening, honesty and a mutual concern for each other’s happiness.


4. It’s a normal healthy sign to be interested in viewing pornographic pictures; everyone does it.A person who is busy with their own life appreciating their body, their talents, their dreams and relationships doesn’t need pornography. They know pornography is a distorted picture of sexuality and relationships playing on the lowest aspects of the human mind.


5. Going on a chat-line exchanging sexual language and images is harmless fun.Sex-addicts are known to hide behind a false innocent identity in chat rooms trying to find victims to support their addiction.


6. Staying with simple hugging and kissing is old fashioned and childish.There is a huge movement among young people in the USA and in Africa to get back to simple, respectful relationships where friendship and companionship is in focus leaving the life-changing act of intercourse for marriage later on in life.


7. Pornography is like every other business only a different product.People involved in the pornography industry are making money on somebody else’s addiction and curiosity. Thousands of children, women and some men are exploited in the pursuit of bringing ‘pleasing’ images to sad minds.
