I don't really have an opinion on this but I'm just gonna say that about that association between porn consumption and aggression, it doesn't seem like they've found a casual relationship, just a correlation. Could be that people who are inclined to sexual aggression (or verbal aggression, as they say in the abstract is more strongly associated) are just more likely to consume porn.
Blud actually pulled Correlation doesn't imply causation out.
Look, you are right.
It is a red flag though. And as I pointed out to him, there are many anecdotes speaking of porn causing harm. He ignored all the red flags and went with the usual line of "it's perfectly normal in moderation", which I'm arguing is the wrong attitude to have given the issues that many people have from porn (or in proximity to porn).
