Ssshhhh, No one let anyone in GD know: 88% of pornography contains physical aggression.

34. The range of study statistics is disturbing

Often done on collage age young men, with fairly small samples. There is no consensus on correlation between pornography and violence much less causality.

But as you point out, most of it is aggressive. My complaint about pornography, is that it's not true eroticism, it's a corporate industry every bit as corrupt as Wall Street. In other words, our fantasy's are designed with the eyes of porn-- with all the attendant issues that company it, much like the fashion industry gives us clothing, and influences those choices, only not as benign.

It's a powerful influence-- whether one chooses to watch porn or not. That that influence is denied, regulated to harmlessness in every case or defended in areas that are clearly misogynistic or racist dangerous is a very strange blind spot.
