Net porn good for you: official

An government-funded study into porn consumption Down Under has concluded that a little of what you fancy might do you good - and may even make users "more relaxed about their sexuality" and lead to healthier marriages, news.com.au reports.

The survey - nicely entitled "Understanding Pornography in Australia" and carried out by a team led by Dr Alan McKee - quizzed 1000 porn users and concluded that "pornography is actually good for you in many ways", as McKee put it.


McKee's findings have added fuel to the punch-up over Labor proposals to force ISPs to filter porn in order to protect kiddies from online smut. The author of the draft legislation - Australia Institute executive director Clive Hamilton - hit back at McKee's findings with: "No man who regularly uses pornography can have a healthy sexual relationship with a woman," adding: "The question is - how much are we willing to pay to protect our children from damaging pornographic images?"

McKee, however, asserted: "The more we try and turn porn into something that's seen to be bad and has to be kept away from families, the more problems we might be causing for ourselves."

The doc drew the line, though, at suggesting that pornography was good for children: "I think you come there to an issue we can't answer - should children who are 16-years-old be allowed to be sexual?" he evaded.

ISPs and politicians have weighed into the debate with the former calling the legislation "unworkable" and the latter calling for investment in greater parental awareness and increased funding for Australian Broadcasting Authority agency Netalert - the watchdog which deals with Net porn - rather than draconian censorship rules.

Always amazing how people can't see that the answer is there and obvious as pointed out above. Parents needs to take responsibility and control. If a 10yr old is looking at porn then the parent needs a slap for not preventing it. They (presuming they are any sort of responsible parent) monitor TV that's watched, video/DVD that's watched and should be doing exactly the same for the Internet. If they aren't doing so then the parenting skills are at fault.

Parents can't watch their kids all day.

Even if they install pornfilters, their kids can surf somewhere else.
