10 year olds should be allowed to watch porn. If you're seeking it out, it's fine (as opposed to people showing you). That's how you learn about your body.

Only America has a weird obsession over sex = bad. In Europe, they have shows dedicated to dating based on if you like their genitals.

10 years should not have to watch porn. The problem is that it is often the only "sex education" they'll have. But it's a terrible example of sexual life.

Sex Ed should be about pleasure, sane sex life, type of relation, etc. As well as the usual risks and disease presented, so teenagers can understand the difference between performance and reality

I never said they should HAVE to watch porn. I said they should be ALLOWED.

Your comment just goes to show further how Americans view sex as bad lmao.

Nothing wrong with porn. Not my fault Americans think that porn is real. Bet you also think horror movies are real, too, eh? All those innocent people killed!

You do realize that amateur porn exists, right? Where people film themselves with their iPhone. None of the production shit.

The US absolutely has an obsession with sex = bad but it also has an obsession with sex = money and power. I don't have kids, but if I did I wouldn't let them watch pornhub porn. It doesn't show healthy relationships, it's mostly just step-daughter porn. So while I agree that children shouldn't be sheltered from sex, they should be sheltered from Pop-Porn.
