There is still plenty of money to be made though and I am making it.

I would believe that if a new sexual novelty had poped up. Like some type of holigram / virtual porn girl helmet you wear or projected from your tv and people were doing that now vs watching videos or cams... but the "novelty" of facebook I dont see how that replaced the novelty of porn. Thats like saying some good new drink caused a drop in food sales. People need to still eat, and trust me I know people haven't stopped jerking off or are jerking off less.

That really is summed up with "interaction" something that is live which always sells better than something recorded. Dating sites I definitely think are affected by social networking sites. You can meet new people for free through social networking. You can't watch 1 hour long hardcore porn on social networking sites.

and i don't know whats so hard to understand - when you spend 2-3 hours after work every day on facebook and chat with girls then you have 2-3 hours less to look for porn. and conveniently there's enough free porn available easily when you need it for a quick jerk. no need to search for it anymore.

You don't know what is hard to understand? Because you automatically *think* that more time on facebook = less time on porn, minute for minute exchange. I think that is a nieve assumption. Why couldn't more time on facebook mean less TV, or less playing games, or less going outside, or less time working? Where are you guys getting this rock solid evidence that an extra 30 mins on facebook today means 30 minutes less spent on porn???
I think it is more logically that they spent less time watching tv, working, or sleeping, or whatever.
First of all the people who spend a lot of time on facebook, aren't spending 2-3 hours AFTER work. They are also spending a lot of time DURING work on those sites.
Guys have chatted with girls on chatrooms since day one of the net. That hasn't affected anything. If anything it is the frustraition of not being able to find a girl to go out with you tonight that leaves the guy to wanting to yank it to a porn video or girl on a cam site.
Also very very few people spend 2-3 hours looking at porn muchless that long looking for porn. It doesn't take long to find porn, and most people have their favorite places already (tube sites). They go on youtube, browse a bunch of vids, get off and leave. No different than what they were doing 10 years ago.
I guess this is just one of those things. You may have proof that time spent on social networking sites have gone up, but neither of us hav proof that time spent on porn sites have gone down. We have proof porn income has gone down, but using common sense we can easily see the real factors that affect the decline in porn sales. It isn't that people are looking at porn less and jerking off less. It is that less people are paying for it. Unless if facebook caused the world to be less horny which i think is absurd.
I wonder how many of you who believe social networking sites is killing porn sales also believe in summer slow down. LOL you know, when people don't have time to look at porn during the summer because they are all out side playing and on vacations. It's like every "Slow down" you people come up with equates to people not having time to jerk off. I can just picture a guy who has a high sex drive or gets turned on easy and jerks off daily saying ok, im going to cut back to jerking off every other day because I just don't have the time to do it anymore because i need to write on my wall at facebook and comment on my friends pictures there. Oh and damn vacation next week, shit no jerking off for the next 10 days. damn! lolol
