Not saying it is impossible, but the simple fact that internet exists or not is absolutely not indicative of porn having a positive or negative effect. It is a pretty weak article to use as evidence against what I am saying when it states clearly that these are only associations and correlations and essentially guesswork.
It’s more than you’ve provided.
Because they’re computer generated images not children.
Sorry, I really don’t support your perspective. If you have reasonable suspicion to believe real child porn is being used in these models prove it to a judge and get a warrant. If someone is a bad actor to the point of criminal intent, prove it to a judge, and bring it to court.
Dude how are you going to regulate AI?!!
Like by all means go after people harming others, but man… You realize you have no control right? Black markets THRIVE in this world. Like fuck, they can’t even keep drugs out of prison.
This took me 2 seconds to google.
Perhaps the most serious accusation against pornography is that it incites sexual aggression. But not only do rape statistics suggest otherwise, some experts believe the consumption of pornography may actually reduce the desire to rape by offering a safe, private outlet for deviant sexual desires.
“Rates of rapes and sexual assault in the U.S. are at their lowest levels since the 1960s,” says Christopher J. Ferguson, a professor of psychology and criminal justice at Texas A&M International University. The same goes for other countries: as access to pornography grew in once restrictive Japan, China and Denmark in the past 40 years, rape statistics plummeted. Within the U.S., the states with the least Internet access between 1980 and 2000—and therefore the least access to Internet pornography—experienced a 53 percent increase in rape incidence, whereas the states with the most access experienced a 27 percent drop in the number of reported rapes, according to a paper published in 2006 by Anthony D’Amato, a law professor at Northwestern University.
It doesn’t seem right to me to prosecute someone for computer generated images.
Okay… So correct me if I’m wrong, but being abused as a child is like… one of the biggest predictors of becoming a pedophile. So like… Should we preemptively go after these people? You know… To protect the kids?
How about single parents that expose their kids to strangers when dating. That’s a massive vector for kids to be exposed to child abuse.
I have an executive function disorder. I manage.
That’s you. Your husband doesn’t manage, and hasn’t been managing for 15 years.
I do not abuse him and I resent the accusation.
Yeah I disagree. Telling you’re partner you hate being married to them absolutely qualifies as emotional abuse in my books. That one comment alone completely justifies your partner feeling like you guilt them.
You’re clearly a child or projecting your own shit onto my marriage but you’re way off base.
You’re in denial.
Oh yes… Spending 15 years failing to change someone is a very adult decision. Maybe year 16 is where he finally gets his shit together!
You’re being cruel, point blank. That’s a choice you’re choosing to make. Him being a lazy partner isn’t justification to be emotionally abusive. You know he’s not going to meet your standards. You have 15 years of evidence. You just seem unable to accept it.
It’s clear your partner has some form of executive disfunction. Do you enjoy treating him badly or something? Because why else would you do this? You’re not being honest. All you want to do is talk about how you deserve an equal partner, but the situation is bigger then that.
I hope someday your partner clues in and realizes they’ll never be able to make you happy, because you two have a toxic dynamic, something you seem unconcerned about.
–edit—
Do you hate him for not being the person you expected him to be? Is that why you think it’s okay to keep attacking his flaws?
I’m not setting him up for failure. I’m expecting him to be an equal and contributing member of our partnership.
You know he’s not that person, so you are setting him up for failure, but whatever.
You’re the one setting goals you know he won’t meet. 15 years… 15 years getting pissed/frustrated/etc at someone. 15 years of failure.
Anyways, I’m pretty sure you’re aware of this, say whatever you want to the people that don’t know better.
It’s absolutely not like that at all. I said it ONCE, not repeatedly and it was recently. As in a very tired, exhausted “I love you but I hate being married to you” because I’m just so so so tired. I have been understanding, angry, goal oriented, blasé, I’ve been every way.
How about some humility? You straight up tell your husband you hate being married to him, and rather then see that as a problem on your part you’re here trying to justify it.
Like god damn, 15 years! 15 years of setting your partner up for failure.
Your partner isn’t allowed to say you make him feel guilty, but you straight up refer to him as a shitty failure? You’re allowed to tell him you hate being married to him? That’s messed up.
It’s been 15 years of failed attempts to change her husband according to OP.
Imagine 15 years of someone setting goals for you, and you constantly failing, and them getting upset. It could be manipulation, but it could also just be panic. This situation gives me anxiety 😅
Like OP straight up tells her partner she hates being married to him…
Sounds like you’re trying to teach a fish to fly.
Ah yes… Let’s discrimnate based on language, that’ll help people progress.
me not knowing how to bring up bad news
Is it subjective if data tends to say otherwise and it still gets ignored?
Yes. Because you can argue things like reduced guns will lead to reduced deaths, and therefore it’s an objective good, but that relies on neglecting things like cultural ties.
The stupid thing is the second you start talking about gun bans effecting Native hunting culture suddenly there’s respect and understanding.
Sorry I’m not really explaining myself well but I gotta get back to work.
Because in most of the world conservative values have become “what’s best for me,” and progressive values have become “what’s best for us”
What’s best is subjective. Initiatives against coal, guns, religion, cars, etc… aren’t what’s best for Conservates.
Liberals asserting their values are what’s best for everyone doesn’t make it so.
Wrong.
