This isn't even funny. my parents weren't that tech savvy and i learnt about porn from about 4th grade or so. parents need to be in control of what their children are browsing

Do you feel like you're a worse person for learning about porn at such a young age? I also learned about porn around that age (2nd~4th grade) and I feel like it had no impact on my life whatsoever as an adult.

The funny part of the post is referring to "teaching crabs how to read" as "forbidden knowledge"

It's not about making me a worse person. It lead to addiction. At first it was maybe once a week..then twice a week...every two days....and then to about 2-3 times in a day. It's hard to come out of it

Porn or sex addiction isn't a thing. In general, people who struggle with porn or sex are living in social environments that have pathologized them, and the struggle is in trying to conform to social expectations that make normal human experiences taboo.

I'm an old person. I learned about porn at age 4 from finding my parents' stash.

I'm curious, were you addicted to it later in life?
