it kinda depends on what kind of person you are, if you are ashamed and utterly embarrassed of the whole ordeal then no its not because then your causing self hate for your natural instinct for desire and thats not good.

however if you are okay with it and it pleases you its fine so long as no one gets hurt and you dont support the pain of any person[s] that did [such as strange fetishes that hurt people or something or the sort] and also if its an ordeal you keep to yourself because its a private manner to deal with on your own however you choose to and not something all the world would be pleased to hear about because seriously that the point where most people just say tmi

Too much of a good thing is not good. It can harm their real life sexually, b/c they may start to see certain acts as normal or acceptable and their partner may not be interested. I am speaking from personal experience. I'm the one not interested! Watching things a zillion times is bound to make them want to do those things. I think men in general are going to watch porn so I accept that, but still it can cause problems.

There are three major categories of porn. These are straight out of my notes from Applied Social Psychology.

There are three major categories of porn. These are straight out of my notes from Applied Social Psychology.
Erotica - This is non-aggressive, willing, sensitive, caring partners. Stuff like amateur porn, but also includes masturbation videos and most lesbian porn. Usually has zero negative effects.
Non-violent pornography - Male dominance, female submission, a significant power differential. This is most of your main stream porn. The man is in control an basically commands everything that is done. Can lead to negative stereotyping of women.
Violent pornography - Violence and sexuality are integral parts. Further widens the power differential. This category is very broad, ranging from BDSM to snuff films. This category can also include Violent Sexuality which is in Hollywood type movies where they juxtapose violence and sex, even if the sex is non-violent. For example, they show two people having sex and then cut to a shootout and then back to sex and back to shooting etc... Violent pornography greatly increases the chance of negative stereotyping of women and increases ones the viewers chances of committing sexual crimes.
After watching non-violent and violent pornography it is recommended that you view something else completely unrelated afterwards to help reduce the effects of negative stereotyping women.
In summary, try to stick with erotica and kind of avoid non-violent pornography unless the girl is really hot :) Don't watch violent pornography, it will change how you view the world and women.

..since "Heavenly Father" gives you the desire to watch porn (instinct), he shouldn't mind you watching it. hopefully, at some point, he also gives you the ability ( judgement) to know it's time to move on and do better things with your life.

Watching fabricated intimacy is kind of the same as watching fabricated love or fabricated life on TV -- perhaps a passable substitute for those wanting in the real thing of their own!

Porn however has the unique ability over time to transform people into objects for our own good pleasure/gratification; and further CAN invade 'real-life' causing one to see the people one encounters more as objects for their pleasure than actual human beings.
As someone has already said we need to realize that we are human beings and not superhuman beings. The urges and desires do come to us on very primal levels, and sometimes a 'substitute object' may temporarily fill a temporary need -- perhaps keep someone from clubbing a cavewoman and dragging her home by the hair!
But I think the consumption of porn is something that one should make considerable effort to leave behind.
It turns the 'performers' into mere objects and creates a mindset that CAN invade one's day-to-day thinking/fantasizing.
At best it's a temporary substitute for finding the real thing.
And it feeds demand for an industry that has a bad habit of exploiting young desperate people.

It's like going to a nice restaurant and paying to look at the pictures of the food on the menu, maybe tipping the waiter/waitress well if s/he will allow you to watch him/her eat it.
If one is watching it with one's significant other, perhaps for inspiration or education, I suppose that works, however. (This last with a tip of the hat to loudinrich and chantarella.)

It can be educational (learned some neat tricks watching the stuff). I can't help but respond to the visual beauty of sex and all of the way in which it is expressed (I am not talking of children or of rape when I say all- the line should be drawn there!).
