With the news of Pornhub, it got me thinking why suddenly society felt it was normal to have unrestricted access to porn by people of any age. This was never the norm. Porn was always age restricted and nobody seemed to feel that was wrong. I'm not against legal porn, but there is no reason it should be freely accessible to children.

There is a thing called parents, who are responsible for their children, and what they do, what they have access to.
As smug as Nomen's comment was, it's actually accurate. Parents have to be vigilant.
Because it's not just porn. It's all media. Even media that's supposed to be appropriate for children.
When my daughter was nine she was watching some show about high school kids, and they depicted a teacher and a student as star crossed lovers, not as a pedo and a victim. They also showed high school kids having serious sex scenes... like it's just a given that all high school kids will be sexually active.
Cardi B has that pornographic song WAP out now. And I actually used to be ok with Cardi B. I mean, yah, a lyric or two were usually pretty raunchy.... but this whole song is nothing but literally porn. I let my daughter, who is now 14, have a Halloween party, and I told all the girls they were absolutely NOT to play WAP. That night I heard kids down there asking them to play it, and they said "No, Mr Kitty said no WAP." But if I didn't know what that song was, I would have had 30 14 year-old's in my basement listening to literal porn.
Fucking Cartoon Network is pushing the pronoun bullshit now. Sesame Street said Bert and Ernie are gay.
It's literally everything. We have turned in to a society of disgusting degenerates who think nothing of sexualizing children. And it's shameful.
To be fair, Apple has some pretty solid parental control tools for their products. My neighbor was showing me how he can see every app his kid uses, what they access and for how long. He can also restrict access. But I guess all it takes is a friend's computer to circumvent it however.
It was hard enough for me to block pornography with all my devices. When I was addicted, I couldn't go two days without viewing it. Thankfully I was able to block it all on my computer and phone, but I worry for my children if I ever have them. I'll have to teach them that its wrong and dangerous, but also to come to me if they ever have issues with it. My parents never talked to me about pornography, and I want to right that.
yeh that used to be the case.
Again that's the parents fault, not porns
