Making Decisions: Pornography

What Is the Definition of Pornography?

Sexually explicit pictures, writing or other material whose primary purpose is to cause sexual arousal.

What’s Wrong With Using Pornography?

Pornography devalues sex and it can be very seductive and addictive. Exposure to pornography can lead to unrealistic sexual expectations later in life. Viewing pornography detaches you from the “real world” and real relationships. Boys who routinely use pornography often find themselves needing increasingly more hard-core pornography to become sexually stimulated. Pornography is harmful to single men, but it’s a marriage killer for married couples. Pornography destroys a person’s ability to be sexually satisfied by his or her spouse by placing that real person in an unfair competition with a fabricated fantasy.
