Porn is adult entertainment, nothing more. Certain rather weak-spirited people with addictive natures can certainly overindulge in it to the point of it becoming a huge problem in their lives, but so to can people do the same with drugs, alchohol, gambling, video games and a host of other things. I'm sure there are people out there addicted to TV in an extreme way. Junk food is as we speak ruining millions of lives.
What I find odd is that some people would (as others have said here) blame the thing being obsessed upon rather than to go after the real culprit which is the inner weaknesses inside of these addicts. I mean really, should everyone be denied access to something just because a small percentage lack the self control to keep from letting it ruin their marriage, life, etc?
As for the "merits" of porn one could argue what are the merits of any visual media? Really, do we need movies and TV shows rife with murder and horrific violence? Let's cut out all gaming and gambling because what are the "merits" of that?
Merit is subjective, people's right to view what they want to view (including legal adult content) is not.
And if none of that makes any sense then just do what I do when all else fails.... blame Canada.
