Internet Pornography
Someone you know views internet pornography.
Accurate statistics are almost impossible to locate but there's considerable evidence that internet pornography is growing in volume as well as in the harm it's doing to women and men. Indirect evidence shows that increasing numbers of people are indulging in the viewing of porn and they doing the work for extended and longer periods of time.
The Growing Internet Pornography Problem
Careful observations of recent trends demonstrates the issue.
More and much more pornography sites on the internet. The increasing number of porn sites can be seen by the frequency by which they appear in otherwise innocent search on the internet results. Engines like google and Yahoo are careful to avoid trash sites from popping up in searches however the sheer number appears to be more than the engines will keep track of. Looks for some medical problems or a search to find details about a celebrity are almost certain to generate porn sites included in the listings. More and more pornographic spam email. How frequently do you find odd emails sent to you against people and places you do not know? Often these emails promote internet sites that specialize in many forms of adultery or pornography. The truth that they're being sent so frequently suggests the strategy works; that people actually open and respond to the messages. Increases in internet pornography like a element of marital discord. Marital counselors are seeing more and more clients where addictive internet pornography viewing is at least an element of the problem. Women and men steal intimacies from their spouses by consorting with internet porn sites.
Corporate IT departments verify rising pornography viewing at work. Companies are spending more and more time and money preventing the viewing of pornography on their corporate networks. Businessmen are worried about the large number of time spent on websites like these and also the damage such viewing may bring to their employees.
There might be little question that internet pornography keeps growing. Some estimates suggest that web-based porn generates more revenue than that from ABC, CBS and NBC combined. It's big business and it is growing. 20 to 33 percent of online users use the internet for sexual purposes based on studies done as recently as 2005. Those same studies, yet others, are convinced that as much as 17% of users actually fit definitions of sexual addictions. The, both users and their partners report a change or chilling effect within their intimate relationships following the obsession with internet porn began.
The New York Times published an article almost 10 years ago that documents the development of the industry back then. If anything, it's larger today.Spurred by changes in technology that make pornography simpler to order in to the home than pizza, and court decisions that offer broad legal protection, the company of selling sexual interest through images has become a $10 billion annual industry in the United States, according to Forrester Research of Cambridge, Mass., and also the industry's own Securities and Exchange Commission filings.
$10 billion in 2000? Can you imagine what that has grown to today?
Even the federal government isn't exempt from employees using government computers for porn access. Just a month ago, two Usa Senators took the National Science Foundation to job for neglecting to properly discipline employees who used taxpayer equipment to see porn. "In one case, a senior staff member used his agency computer to see live sexual performances and participate in sex-oriented online "chatting" with performers," Internet Pornography Is a straightforward Addiction Few addictive behaviors have grown as quickly as internet pornography. In past decades, one had to search for pornographic magazines in sleazy shops inside a bad part of town or behind the counter in certain convenience store. Today internet pornography is different everything. Internet porn is particularly powerful for three key reasons. Some have called these three reasons a "triple engine" effect.
Internet pornography is affordable or free. Many porn sites offer free images or videos. Usually the provider hopes to draw a user by teasing all of them with samples. Often porn sites offer subscriptions to their raunchiest material for a few dollars per month to a person with a credit card, debit card or use of an online payment service. Internet pornography is instant gratification. Someone trying to find internet porn will find it with a single a word search on Google or Yahoo. In a few minutes, a person will be deep into pornography. There is little or no time delay between the decision to engage in viewing porn and the moment it really is found. Our culture preaches instant gratification in lots of areas of life and the internet makes it supremely possible. Internet pornography is anonymous. The days are gone of slipping into that sleazy shop and seeking to purchase a relevant video or magazine without having to be seen by someone. Now one can surf the waves of internet porn with hardly a trace.
These three components, free, instant and anonymous, make internet porn a sure bet to attract and hold many people. Families must be careful and restraint within their internet usage or they might become on of the statistics.
