The cruelty that it inflicts on the lives of the men, of the wives, and of the children cannot be exaggerated. America is a sexually oriented society. And Americans are constantly told the greatest pleasure to be experienced in life is sexual pleasure. If you are addicted to drugs and want to break the addiction, change your environment.

Pornography builds excitement by creating fantasies.
No healthy marriage relationship can compete with sexual fantasies. In fact, the addicted person prefers his fantasies to a relationship. A relationship requires two persons, requires effort and understanding, and involves disappointment.
