I've never met a teenager traumatized by porn. Admittedly, I don't ask teenagers about their porn habits either. But, I'm pretty sure people seeking out porn aren't going to be ruined by it.
The most harmful aspect is the unrealistic expectations it can set. In general, sex in porn is nothing like real life sex between two folks in love.
But that can be solved by decent sex education.
I have had porn sex before. It can be a fun twist when you're sensory seeking and fucking 3 times a day cause everything else in the relationship is shit.

Don't know that I'd call that porn.
Not with that attitude.
I'm fine with that in this case.

As an adult, I can look back and say I wish I hadn't seen the type and amount of porn I saw as a preteen/teen. And today's standard porn can be insanely aggressive; this has an affect. I have nothing against porn in general, but I also understand the concern.
Maybe so, but that's not what this is about. It's just another way to further erode privacy. You can monitor children's online activity and restrict it. It's as simple as that.
the only way I could see that being really traumatic is if it's their parents... and they didn't know their mom was a pornstar or something.
Is it Cartman's mom? Hey, it is Cartman's mom!
