> We tend to forget the damage that porn causes to young minds.

There's a fair amount to unpack here.

"We tend to forget" seems to indicate this is proven and beyond dispute. I'm not sure that is true.

"damage" is a very strong word that implies permanent harm - almost at the cellular level. Not everyone would accept that "damage" is even the right way to frame this. It's part of a complex social and behavioural pattern that is very hard to pick apart.

"young minds" - how young? Is it dependent on countering with good sex education or is the "damage" something that would resist all countermeasures?
