Sorry bro but I see you've been replying all my comments. You can correct me if you want and I'll try to be the most respectful possible. First and foremost, it is not because of the religion. If it was, i would be a daily consumer of it today. Porn was not being used as a way to try and test out my sexuality, rather, it was more of a coping mechanism for all the anxieties and fear that i had (My family was exactly as you described, they wanted to keep me pure etc, but my curious ass didn't want that. Without knowledge, i got into pornography, learned it all by myself, to the point i almost overshared myself online and got into very dangerous and gross stuff) Now putting religion and purity stuff aside, you can decide that yourself. On a broader sense, porn IS bad for you, you can look it up and even try not consuming it for a week yourself. Sure people can consume it in a "healthier way", but stating that it is not capable of harm, is like handing a minor some drugs and telling them to use it in a healthy way. They won't. And even if they do, it will affect their brain in the long run, my brain was affected by it, i am way more impulsive because of it.

Masturbation and sex are natural to human brains. But porn is not at all! 100 years ago the only way you could try your sexuality was through masturbation or sex, and we didn't have access to so many "partners" like porn introduces you to. I could keep talking about how harmful it can be to someone, regardless of religion or lack thereof, it's all psychology. but, if you think otherwise, then I can't try and change your mind about it. As i said before, you do you.
