Pornography sites rank among men’s top Internet destinations. Many women visit as well—an estimated 25 percent of the porn audience is women. As popular as Internet porn is, many people feel confused about its social impact. Vocal critics claim porn causes tremendous social harm: misogyny, divorce, sexual assault, teen sexual irresponsibility, erectile dysfunction, sex addiction, misery for women who’s partners watch, and exploitation of women survivors of childhood sex abuse. However, the best evidence clearly shows that all these allegations are false—every one of them. Porn causes only two things: masturbation and sexual miseducation of both men and women. This brief video tells the rare truth—that porn does not cause significant social harm.
