I would have more space on my computer's hard drive.

Everybody's life would be different, because the Internet would not exist.

I'd be even more miserable as it is now. I've never seen a woman naked in real life, so without porn and the internet I'd be screwed, and not in the good way.

My right hand wouldn't be as strong as it is.

I am not advocating this! But I, and I think many women, have trouble understanding what porn is to men, and answers to this might help me, and maybe us, understand.

And I am trusting you guys to have the b*lls to refrain from saying that you would invent porn and make a bajillion dollars .
I'd be a lot less educated , for sure. ha ha It's not always realistic, but it can contain some helpful things here and there

- not a man.

I wouldn't say that porn has had much of an effect on my life overall. It's probably resulted in a little more sex, a few more laughs. It's like asking what effect comedians have had on my life. It's been a little fuller life with (porn or comedians), but an absence of comedians wouldn't mean an absence of a sense of humor or laughter. Overall, it wouldn't make much difference one way or another.

Back before the internet, my wife and I used to rent a porn flick or two every couple weeks and watch them together. They gave us ideas, created discussions, and always led to happy endings. They also gave us plenty to laugh about. But we'd have talked and laughed and loved with them or without them.
haha "happy endings" - the ultimate adult fairy tale !

So how do you explain all the posts we get from women who say their husband is no longer interested in sex, and only masturbates to porn?

A world without porn would be a world without sex and therefore quite literally a world without humanity.

P.S. Lots of women like porn. Lots. Look at the popularity of 50 Shades Of Gray.
Back then when we were caveman there was no need for porn because we just did it out in the open for all to see. That's also how children probably learnt about sex, from watching their parents and other adults doing it. Kind of makes me glad I wasn't born in those days lol.

Maybe that's why we often prefer the old-school stuff.
That's true...most real life women just don't live up to the porn stars you see. That's why more and more girls and young women are trying to look like porn stars. I'm not against the idea of porn totally, but I do wonder how it is affecting our collective view of sexuality.

I don't have a problem with that
