> especially to teenagers

An honest conversation, sure.

Porn is a hyperstimulus, unrealistic and so reality seems bad in comparison.

This may be why teens these days are having fewer accidental pregnancies.

Those missing accidental teen pregnancies, according to a comment I saw on Hacker News recently and never checked the veracity of, are a big part of why fertility rates are now below replacement levels.

The dichotomy that won't be believed: Ban the "adult" content to force the teens to grow up before they need to; or let them be "corrupted" so that they can keep their innocence. (Scare quotes because I remember being a teenager, even if it was the 90s).
