The Porn Facts Utah family counselor Jill Manning says, “I can unequivocally tell you pornography, especially Internet pornography with its violent, demeaning, or highly explicit messages, is damaging, not only for youths, but for many adults as well. Its affects on a person’s social and sexual development can have lasting effects.” There are 4.2 million porn websites containing 372 million pages of porn, tapped by 68 million Internet searches each day. The average age of first exposure to Internet porn is 11. 12-17 year-olds are the largest Internet porn consumers. 80% of 15-17 year-olds have had multiple exposures to hard core porn while 90% of 8-16 year-olds have viewed porn online.
