'porn is more addicting than crack'... I kind of doubt that.
“it was obvious this an issue theyve thought long and hard yet completely failed to understand.” I take it that by “failed to understand” you mean “don’t agree with me.” From their standpoint, they probably think you don't understand.
“to me, if someone feels ashamed to know me or interact with me based on what i do, i look at that as a flaw in their character not mine.” This is based on your opinion that what you do is not “wrong.” It’s not necessarily a character flaw to think that what you do is wrong, or to be ashamed of having a child doing wrong. However, understand that they are probably ashamed of what you do, not of you.
“to me, that kind of attitude is always a sign of someone who has had a very limited life experience.” I think you are mistaken here. For example, I know someone who is dead set against the use of alcohol based on a rather colorful and varied life experience. Their considered opinion is that either alcohol is either something pleasant that you can do without, or it is very harmful, depending on the person and circumstances. If it’s something you can do without, you should be willing to do so to help those whom it harms abstain. I don’t agree, but I don’t think it’s lack of experience or insight that causes them to hold this opinion.
“i have no problem with what i do”… And they do. This is the crux of the matter. I am not trying to convince you that porn is wrong. But they truly believe it is, and are upset that you are a participant. Think of something that you truly consider wrong (but that is legal), and imagine that someone you love was involved. That’s their position.
