All men watch porn, scientists find
Scientists at the University of Montreal launched a search for
men who had never looked at pornography - but couldn't find
any.

Researchers were conducting a study comparing the views of men in
their 20s who had never been exposed to pornography with regular
users.
But their project stumbled at the first hurdle when they failed to
find a single man who had not been seen it.
“We started our research seeking men in their 20s who had never
consumed pornography,” said Professor Simon Louis Lajeunesse. “We
couldn't find any.”
Although hampered in its original aim, the study did examined the
habits of those young men who used pornography – which would appear
to be all of them.
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.
The study found that men watched pornography that matched their own
image of sexuality, and quickly discarded material they found
offensive or distasteful.
Prof Lajeunesse said pornography did not have a negative effect on
men's sexuality.
“Not one subject had a pathological sexuality,” he said. “In fact,
all of their sexual practices were quite conventional.
“Pornography hasn't changed their perception of women or their
relationship, which they all want to be as harmonious and
fulfilling as possible,” he added.
