What about the objectified views of women, the rising violence to women, a desensitization to sex, alienation to the emotional side of sex, the rise of teen and pre-teen sexual activity, and
social responsibility? Aren't those reasons that porn can be considered sinful, or, if not sinful, having negative effects on individuals and society? Only viewing at personal responsibility ignores the social fabric. I have just listed several reasons that porn can be considered "bad" other than "damning sex for fun". You may disagree with all of those reasons, but those are all actual reasons and there is at least a starting point beyond saying that there is only one reason that porn would be considered sinful.
