All well and good if it protects children. But does it?
How come that people can get married and have lawful sexual relations at 16 years of age but a 17 yr old who wants a bit of masturbation material cant access such sites?
Not meaning to be contentious here but 17 year old single males are as much sexual beings as 16 yr old married couples.
For what its worth, I had my first sexual encounter at 15 and was viewing porn a long time before that. (and no, it didn't demean women in my experience)
Why this discrepancy that 16 year olds can enjoy a sexual relationship (and in which ever way they wish) but cant view others doing the same until they are 18?
UK age of consent between 2 adults, 16 years.
Age to use masturbation aids, 18 years.
Bonkers!

Fine as long as you don't shoot them down as they arrive.
Porn doesn't exist as we all know in oe neat package and much of it can be harmful to formative minds - does that mean all porn should be banned. In my mind, no.
We as adults educating our children to know the difference is key, but that often doesn't happen through sheer embarrassment for some.

It's an utter nonsense, an attempt to be seen to be doing something when, apart from creating inconvenience, trying spy on adult's private business, and encouraging people to take risks; does nothing worth referring to. If they want to protect children they should try teaching the parents that parenting is a job they should be doing.
