Same goes for women, doesn't it? As you say ... it's porn.

Yeah, true, but you only see that in the hard core movies. In soft core movies they tend to be more "gentle", if you could use that word. They tend to make it more erotic and sensual...

True, people are hypocrites, but games with violence doesn't hurt kids, and honestly many kids find everything that has to do with sex and such for something ugly (ugly isn't the best word. I had complete blackout .. but you know what i mean. hehehe), so they wouldn't watch that to the same degree as some tough action hero. Either way, if kids want to see these things they'll be able to do it without the parents knowing it, and I don't think it will help if you stop it. If I ever get kids, I won't stop them from watching the movies they want or the games they want ... as I parent I'll always be abit protective when it comes to some extremeties, but if they wanna explore these fields it's totally ok for me.

- Anyways, I saw porn when I was 12, and I like to think that I've done pretty ok. I've never raped anyone, I don't think porn shows the reality as it is, I don't do violent sex and I'm not the one who's that keen on getting blowed either. Hmm... Shouldn't I be a gang-banging girl-slapping jerk since I've watched porn since I was that young?
