We believe restricting access to online pornography for teenagers is disproportionate given that people can consent to sex at 16. We feel restrictions such as the Online Safety Act push young people into using VPNs to avoid restrictions, potentially exposing them to more harmful content. We believe arguments porn is bad for teenagers due to misogynistic values fail to account through the prevalence of these values throughout all media. Unrealistic expectations of sex could be more effectively countered by proper sex ed in schools.
