We're getting divroce petitions in India complaining that men aren't getting sex in a particular kind of way. But I still haven't seen any link to heinous crimes against women. I think the problem currently with porn is what befalls anything else - there's far too much of it available. It displaces one's sense of reality. And I agree with Ingrid that a lot of porn is about female subjugation. An interesting global trend with porn appears to be that people much prefer "real sex", as it were, i.e., amateur porn as opposed to professional porn stars who do things we can't do with the kind of sexual equipment that we don't possess (or most of us). I think there are concerns with unending availability what is called "hardcore" porn, but no grounds as yet for banning it.
