My cousin told me he found an extensive porn history in his 12yo sons laptop and is worried that it will affect his future relationships and how he views women. So the question is what age was your earliest regular exposure and did it negatively affect your relationships or how you see women?

I first saw porn when I was 4 or 5. I would say it has had quite an impact on me.

I don't think it's affected how I view women, but it has affected my sex life physically. Even when my sex life began to really pick up in my 20s, I still relied on porn and masturbation so much that regular intimate contact could rarely get me to climax. Just another victim of the death grip, and I'm too weak a man to fix it.

I'm too old to have had early exposure to porn. >_>

I mean magazines existed of course but I never had access to any. Best we could come up with in those days was trying to watch between the blurs on scrambled channels on cable, but we didn't have internet access or whatever.

Not that I'm aware of.

Mind you, I've never been in a relationship or had sex, but that's due to other factors that occurred before I had ever seen porn.

First time I was exposed to porn I was like 6 years old, I was watching Antz on VHS and a softcore porn came on (my parents used the Antz tape to record it). I had no idea what it was

Then when I was about 9 I accidentally stumbled on a cartoon porn of The Simpsons. I was grossed out but it was like a lightbulb moment for me. That's when I discovered what the penis was for.

I'm a pretty fucked up individual but I don't attribute it to those experiences

I'm not sure. I know I'm kind of a sex fiend now, but I don't know if that has anything to do with early exposure to porn.

Im 31 so I had a kind of similar experience, it just wasnt super accessible at age 13. My first experience was watching an old video from the 80s or 90s and being confused but curious.

Yes. But I don't think porn is the problem it's America's prudish culture and gutless parents not giving them real information they need to protect themselves.

The only thing more unnatural than modern porn is prudish abstinence, sex is the most normal thing in life and should carry connotations of responsibility not morals and guilt.

Yeah, I'm 36. >_> I'm sure some people had old mags or videos in the house, or friends that did, but definitely couldn't find any in my home and I'm sure my friends would've made it known if they had access, lol. Myself and my friends were from pretty conservative Christian families so either our parents were super good at hiding things or practiced what they preached.

But like some people here mention seeing stuff at 8 or whatever... I would've either been grossed out or just not cared and wanted to go outside and play army or play a Nintendo game at that age. >_>

Actually, now that I think about it, I was sex obsessed even when I was 7 or 8. I used to spend hours thinking about how guys peed and tried to peep in boys' bathrooms. Is that normal?

I'm 32 and had seen some stuff before the internet really took hold... I was probably 8 or 9. My cousin and I found his dads playboy.

My family got dial-up when I was 11 and I never looked back.

I'd say it has had an effect to a degree. Sometimes I'm not able to climax through regular penetration.

It hasn't negatively impacted my relationships. I understand it as a fantasy and it remains that way. Christianity had a far worse impact on my romantic relatonships. Fortunately, I managed to get over that hurdle.

Do you think maybe its because stuff from the 90s was more like normal sex? The emphasis now is on freaky sex and plastic looking women
