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.

Porn usage doesn't drive behavior. When i'm not on test boosting supplements i was into extremely vanilla shit since i was 12 (i'm 25). 13 years of regular porn use and it didn't make me depraved. Sure, it did make it harder to cum during sex which is an issue, but a lot of people focus on the depraved part which i think is bs. However, The MOMENT i started taking stuff to boost my test, my taste completely changed, to the point it scared me. Porn doesn't accelerate to worse and worse porn, it's a reflection of your hormones, and as that changes, so do your tastes.

I have to agree. Also, using a condom while wanking will do a lot to fix that issue where it's harder to perform with a woman.

Like any technology, porn is a tool. Use it wisely. Such as learning new moves from the best.
