Safety Warnings for Porn

I wonder what warnings would be on porn if it came in a box the way cigarettes do?  Here are some possibilities:
*  May completely destroy self confidence and self esteem
*  May lead to genital.abuse through over masturbation
*  Can lead to the abuse of areas of the brain associated with pleasure
*  Can lead to prolonged and severe procrastination
*  May lead to severely impaired  social skills with the opposite sex
*  May lead to varying levels of social anxiety
.......

You pretty much have written the most common problems. If porn was a pack of cigarettes, you would read these on the pack but still use. It's a comedy, really. You read: "9 out of 10 cases of cancer are caused by smoking" but people smoke like crazy. And I think porn addiction is stronger.

We should also add:

May damage personal relationships
May result in erectile disfunction
May impede the ability to start a family

But let's face it, the political will is not there to even declare porn as a problem - let alone regulate it.

I was able to quit smoking after starting late.. It was a struggle. It had a firm grip on me even though I only smoked for a few years but this porn stuff..... this stuff is a whooooooooole nother evil  :'(

And yeah, it's not even to the point where it's a mainstream acknowledgement yet. I hope and pray that by that time we're all out of this struggle and saying thank God that isn't me anymore, what a nightmare..

Nicotine addiction is a whole different thing. Porn is a very very hard addiction to quit because of how it works in our brains. With cigarettes, people usually find their number of cigarettes a day and stay there. With porn, it's never enough. The novelty seeking is what is killing us.
