All men watch porn, scientists find – avg. starting age is 10(!) years (WTF)
“We started our research seeking men in their 20s who had never consumed pornography,” said Professor Simon Louis Lajeunesse. “We couldn’t find any.”
Prof Lajeunesse interviewed 20 heterosexual male university students who consumed pornography, and found on average, they first watched pornography when they were 10 years old.
Around 90 per cent of consumption was on the internet, while 10 per cent of material came from video stores.
Single men watched pornography for an average of 40 minutes, three times a week, while those in relationships watched it 1.7 times a week for around 20 minutes.
That every men watches (or has watched) porn to me is not really a big suprise (it probably will differ in other countries/cultures though). However, that the average starting age is supposed to be 10 years I cannot really believe. I mean: average! Think about that… Also, only 20 men were interviewed. On a larger scale the results might be different.
