Now, as I mentioned in my first blog I believe that there is one main usage of the internet, porn. Today I am going to talk about porn and cyber sex, so if you do not wish to read about this I suggest you leave now.
Now, as I stated above I think that the most predominant usage of the internet is porn and cyber sex. This is because I have noticed that you can hardly click on a website without finding some reference or link to something to do with it, and in some cases it is not even hidden and is right there on a big flashing banner for everyone to see. It is even in online games such as World of Warcraft and Second Life, which have a decent percentage of users being children under the age of 18, so even they are not safe from it. Admittedly, though, the cyber sex that is seen on online games such as World of Warcraft and Second Life is often seen as a more comical thing for people then as a dirty deed (well unless your the parent watching your kid play the game but then I have to ask, why?).
Those who talk of internet porn and cyber sex as being 'addictive' I do see your point in that many do become addicted to it, but compared to many other addictive things such as marijuana and other drugs, cigarettes and alcohol, it is really not that bad as all it really affects is your social life, bank balance and internet usage, as opposed to slowly killing you from the inside or destroying most of your basic cognitive functions. Also on the topic of addiction to porn and cyber sex, is there a difference between that and those who are addicted to sex in itself? In my eyes the answer is yes and the main difference is that those who have fetishes or such forth can find things like that from a private source where they are not known and therefore can't be discriminated against.
For those of you who state that, and agree with the statement that, women are under or miss represented when researchers talk of porn and cyber sex I happen to agree. If you take the time to look at research done into the topic then women are vastly under-represented. Why is this? Is it because most of the research is performed by males who don't think that women are interested in it? Is it because the women themselves don't admit to it for reasons of fear or being misunderstood? Or is it simply because the researchers are too afraid to ask for fear of retaliation or what they might find?
Finally, I have to ask, where do you stand on this topic and why? And for those of you who feel that you have the right to tell others what is right and what is wrong, who gives you the privilege and ability to know what is right or wrong for any moral person and to tell them that your way is the only way to be truly happy? Many of us are very happy believing what we do so leave us alone.
