> Over 70% of teenagers <18 today have watched porn [1]. We all know (many from experience) that kids easily get around whatever restrictions adults put on their computers. We all know the memes about "click here if you're 18" being far less effective than "click here if you're not a robot."

And we all turned out fine I might add. In fact there's a lot more attention to consent and respect for women than 20 years ago.

Of course not counting the toxic masculine far right but that doesn't have anything to do with porn but everything with hate.

Absolutely not. You might personally feel like (or want to tell yourself that) porn didn't negatively affect you. I can tell you with certainty that porn negatively affected my social and sexual development. (I was literally afraid to physically open my mouth around girls when I was 10 years old because of porn.)

There are plenty of pipelines between porn and "toxic masculinity."
