When I first read the title of your post in the list, I thought 'There aren't more of them, it's just more widely reported now.' That was my first thought, but you make some great points there.
I think different people here on the TFP have different ideas about what porn does to our arousal. Some people have said they can watch porn every day and never get desensitized, and others have said that porn has killed it for them, and that they need more hardcore stuff. For some people naked women are enough, for some just sex, for some they need come shots, and for others they need bondage, etc. I guess for some they need the really 'out there' stuff, ie. kiddy porn.
I realy like points 6 and 7, I admit I don't think I'd have thought of those. Adults who were abused as children might be at an age now where they can speak out, and their abusers (abusors?) are still alive and functioning in society, so there is somebody to prosecute. Pedophilia cases in the news are often very sensational for obvious reasons, so in the past ten years, and from now on, I guess we can expect a lot of past abuses come into the spotlight.
Point 7 is something I've never thought of. I wonder if there is any research about that?
