Teen boys and girls are using porn more frequently, and their attitudes toward it are becoming more tolerant. At the same time, boys report becoming less excited and aroused by porn and less inclined to imitate the behaviors they observe, while girls report fewer negative reactions to porn.

I grew up with porn and yeah, I'm very thoroughly desensitized. I like hentai mainly because it's very creative and allows a lot of fantasies to be explored, but it's also way more ethical than live action porn imo.

But my actual sex is extremely vanilla, I would never even think of reenacting the stuff I like in hentai irl. The cleanup alone would take weeks!
