I'm more than far away from being a prude bigot, but your comment is sick and borderline retarded. It's OK for boys to be interested in girls or masturbate. But it's NOT fucking ok for a 11yo to be watching porn, as too much porn can be very destructive even for a mind of an adult. This will turn him into a 15yo with a developed erectile disfunction and a premature ejaculator with porn addiction.
I watch porn and I have no sense of 'moral' guilt about it, but some people refuse to accept how too much internet porn can affect ones brain and sexuality.
Firstly, your weak reasoning stands on using the term "too much" which is quite vague and problematic in itself. (The OP does not state how often or how many hours a day / week the boy watches it)
Secondly, you seem to read a lot of bad pop "science" articles written by "addiction experts" who misuse pop neuroscience to scare people. Unfortunately, in the past even doctors spread lies about masturbation damaging human brain, now they just replace the term masturbation with porn and the straw man is alive and kicking again... Publishing a blur picture of brain scan in a magazine alongside with anectodal evidence and spicing it up with terms like dopamine, reward circuitry and desensitization does not prove anything...
Thirdly, using Internet too much in general can damage our social skills, so should I suppose that you are automatically a social loser because you have created your account on this forum??? Probably not, but you know "too much Internet can lead to Internet addiction and you will lose your social skills, so please consult your therapist and seek help!" (seems silly, doesn´t it?)
(Another argument of this kind: if he plays computer games, he will become a serial killer because computer games promote violence, you know there was this kid in Japan who killed another kid after playing NinjaCombat on his computer.)
If you have problems with erectile dysfunction, of course, it is better for you to blame porn than to admit that you are fucking impotent who can't get it up. I watch porn every day and have no problem at all in real life. Actually, I have sex with my partner twice a day every day and my sexual functioning is better than sexual functioning of most people.
It is naive to think that a young boy won't watch porn because his parents don't want him to. I am sure he would find a way how to do that anyway. That is why I think it is better to educate him about the differences between porn and reality so that he wouldn't have unrealistic expectations. It also could be useful for him to know that it is better to use various masturbation techniques so that he wouldn't get used to only one way how to get off and masturbate without porn sometimes. When his parents choose this kind of approach, they will contribute to his healthy sexual development much more in comparison with prohibiting porn which he will watch anyway and hide it from his parents.
Is it normal for my 11 year old son to watch porn?
