Actually you could say that it's right, because most people have mental problems, only some have it badly and some have it a little.

Of course you could say that. You'd still be wrong, though.

Actually, 1 out of 4 people has mental problems. That is said by several studie's. Here is my source :

1 out 4 is still a lot tough. And it perfectly matches with the internet being 25% porn ( that seems like perfectly acceptable )

6 000 000 000 : 4 = 1 500 000 000 people.

There is a significant difference between 'a lot' and 'most'.

There are a lot of stars in the Milky Way. Still, the number of stars in our galaxy is just a tiny fraction of the total number of stars in the Universe.

Stacey, did you find that Wikipedia page by Googling "extreme pornography"? :P
Why yes. Yes I did. It's pretty much the only page on it I'd wanna go on.

I don't think it's correct to say everyone who watches porn, extreme or otherwise, has mental difficulties. Everybody has sex urges, that's something that comes naturally. Those who watch porn excessively could then be classed as such, but most don't fall under that category.

(by the way, what have those sets of statistics got to do with each other?)

Very correct. Although, what about child porn ? I think someone would have bad mental conditions to watch that.

Yeah, sorry, It was long ago since i read that article. And i just read it again.

Child porn is disgusting. There's tons of it on DA in the form of "child cartoon characters in panties", and when these pics get TOSd the artists who draw them fucking whine like it's a final solution.

How the fuck watching/liking extreme porn can be natural? It's just disgusting, better jack off to a wall than that.

I mean, who are the people who watch it? Straight? Homosexual? If they were either, they'd enjoy regular porn then, wouldn't they (not that I find gay porn/sex to be normal, but let's say it's normal for homosexuals... maybe; at least it's better than stabbing a dog). Is it possible to classify them? Personally I can't, so I believe they do have mental problems.

Before I take on my argument, what is extreme porn, according to you?

Any sexual group could get turned on by repulsive sex, it's all about personal eroticism. And again, such people might prefer hardcore porn, it's all about preferences. But what do you mean with your last question? Classify who under what unit?

Most people who watch child porn probably just have some kind of child-fetish, I don't think that's really a mental disorder.

Something that goes beyond the usual sexual content that porn has and involves what they call "extreme", something immoral, gross and disgusting, often dangerous for health/life

Sexual groups? What exactly do you mean? Homosexual, straight, bi? Well, I think that extreme porn would be disgusting to anyone from those groups who has a non-sick mind. My guess would be that some of those who watch it find it "fun", but that's like thinking that a vid of someone chopping their arm off or dying is fun, which is just wrong.

Hardcore and extreme are absolutely different as far as I know.

What I meant was that I can't classify the people who watch extreme porn (and get turned on by it) to any of the sexual groups mentioned above. I mean, it's just not natural, if you want to get turned on by watching porn, then watch porn, not that extreme bullshit; if you prefer it over normal porn you're a sick idiot imho.

For example, a man sticking a glass jar up his ass which breaks and tears up his rectum...that would be classed as extreme, and you would indeed have to be a sick fuck to jack off to it.

Okay. I thought it just meant a more vile form of normal sex. Like using tongues in obscene places.

But it's still questionable as to whether somebody is mentally ill for liking such things. There is obviously some disfunction in the mind, but how does that make those people different to homosexuals? Both are common in that both take different sexual interests.

Yeah if somebody watches this stuff for sheer enjoyment without any sexual feelings then that person would, definitely, be categorised as mentally unstable. But I was not assuming that.

Indeed, it has really become quite twisted.

I wonder what effect child porn has on the children themselves.
