Categorically, I don't like to agree with evangelicals, but I do think pornography can be harmful to the consumer.

It is in so many ways, the degree of effect dependent on use
1. Conditions young men to believe that women are sex objects that will give it up over any little thing. The know these are people acting but the younger and more impressionable they are the more they believe these stupid and unrealistic scenarios happen somewhat IRL
2. Deprivation creates motivation. Being deprived of sexual stimuli causes someone to be more likely to seek out relationships with other humans. Anything that fills that void also indirectly works against the person seeking an intimate relationship with someone else
3. The dopamine fix has diminishing returns, causing especially porn addicts to need to seek out ever more risqué and edgy versions of porn to the point of possibly dangerous or illegal stuff
4. The women in porn are usually far more attractive than a person is going to be able to get IRL, so only looking at them is going to fuck the with the person’s standards and make women he could possibly get seem ugly
That’s just off the top of my head IMO
