Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION Background of the study In 21st century watching pornography is still a problem. The technology with the influence of their friends, are the reasons why they are a curious to watch pornography. Many young girls are already pregnant because of that watching porn. They do not stop their feelings to the rumors they receiving are promptly encouraged in their mind to try or do it. Young people engaged in sex because of watching pornography. It has a side effect because of the increases of dopamine level that is why the brain is dropping the response of sexual stimulation. It can affect a person’s behavior. It includes thinking about which instances of nays are being misinterpreted or given malice. The existence of libido most of them are men and women, many are experiencing it and sometimes it goes to violence or moving to someone to have sex. How is this social problem? Every research has much answer and has had some knowledge. It also had disadvantages or negative effects. Women working in pornography or any sexualized job have said it de-objectifies them and or empowers them. It’s just had to believe hit franchise that showed girls flashing for the camera, instead of studying is liberating. But that is what happens when young women are told liberation means taking off clothes and not intelligence. The notion that the research technique employed was explorative and a sample size of 300 was used. Simple random sampling was used to sample the participants for the interview. The study revealed that majority of the students admitted to watching pornography before. Furthermore, it was observed that majority of them agreed that pornography affects students’ academic performance negatively and moreover, did not approve of pornography. The study recommended among other things that government should have the political will to ban the sale and possession of pornographic materials to students. Pornography (often abbreviated porn) is the portrayal of sexual subject matter for the purpose of sexual arousal.

Pornography may be presented in a variety of media, including books, magazines, postcards, photographs, sculpture, drawing, painting, animation, sound recording, writing film, video, and video games. The term applies to the depiction of the act rather than the act itself, and so does not include live exhibitions like sex shows and striptease. The primary subjects of present-day pornographic depictions are pornographic models, who pose for still photographs, and pornographic actors or porn stars, which perform in pornographic films. If dramatic skills are not involved, a performer in a porn film may also call a model. Various groups within society have considered depictions of a sexual nature immoral, addictive, and noxious, labeling them pornographic, and attempting to have them suppressed under obscenity and other laws, with varying degrees of success. Such works have also often been subject to censorship and other legal restraints to publication, display, or possession, leading in many cases to their loss. Such grounds, and even the definition of pornography, have differed in various historical, cultural, and national contexts. All know that pornography has rapidly become an accepted part of the internet society. At some point in time or the other, many of us have been exposed in one way or the other to sexually explicit material. Today, children even below the ages of 10 years have so much access to these materials talks less of teenagers above those ages in their adolescence and adults who have more freedom to do as they like. May be reading this and have been gravity of the dangers posed by being addicted to pornographic materials. May also want badly to come out of the addiction but it seems to be so difficult. You may need to be told that you’re not alone in the struggle. This pandemic as I like to call it has affected so many, but a good number of us have come out free by God’s grace and because of some of the facts that are about to be brought to your notice. Pornography consumers and its opponents have something in common they’re both excited by unrealistic fantasies. The images and scenarios presented in pornography don’t always find themselves into the real lives of most consumers, and opponents are fighting an uphill battle when it comes to getting rid of it. Pornography is quite literally centuries old, and it’s had its place in many societies. Of pornography have changed with the advent of new technologies, but the substance of the genre has remained similar over centuries. The use of erotic material, however, has not always been the same throughout time. Pornography as a

term takes its root in Modern Greek. The word “pornography” first appeared in the French language during the early 19th century and in English by the mid-19th century. Statement of the Problems 1.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE Cary Tennis (2013) said, “And naturally whether you approve of pornography in theory or not, its effect will be to displace you. Like crack, it tends to take over, to push out other hungers that tend to nurture the human community by making dependent to one another. Since we are dependent on each other we must be civil and loving. If we are not dependent on each other we need not be civil and loving. We need not community and family” There is debate whether it is truly moral to be “civil and loving” purely because it is necessary, as Carry Tennis seems to say here. Other Christians argue that to be “civil and loving” purely because we are dependent on others is actually immoral and manipulative. These Christians argue that self-contained, independent and yet still warm and loving is a greater virtue. Debbie Nathan (2012) stated from her book entitled pornography A groundwork’ that “Pornography is everywhere today, everyone is looking, and the media responds with little more than gloom-and-doom talk, about civil likes internet sex addiction, on rah-rah promotion Brazilian waxing and Jena Jameson’s fame and fortune. Meanwhile, few know the real history of this explosive media, or the truth about its Business practices, working conditions, politics and actual effect on people. According to Dr Jerry Bergman (2012), “pornography distorts the natural development of personality. If the early stimulus is pornography photographs, the adolescent can be continued to become aroused through photographs. Once this pairings is rewarded a number of times, it is likely to become permanent. The result to the individual is that it becomes difficult for the person to seek out relations with appropriate persons; although with the human’s populations growing, it can be doubted whether this is lack of desire for a human partner is a bad thing.

The article authored by Debbie Nathan and Dr Jerry Bergman related to our study since it tackles bout the actual effect of pornography in what mediums media it would be explosive. It discusses the destructive effects of pornography once and individual is in the habit of watching it. Difficult could be observed. R. Langevin – (2010) discusses how innovation of technology provides new opportunities for the pursuit of sexual deviance. New technology in computers may have applicability for canal behaviour. Through on-line bulletin boards dedicated to particular modes of sexual behaviour, computers users with special sexual predictions can communicate with people who share similar interests around the world. Erotic computer communication may involve mild filtrations, exchanging information about sexual services availability, and specific varieties of deviant behaviour. Computers have been for child pornography and to arrange meeting for sexual purposes. The appearance of computer erotica can be interpreted at various functional levels and hold considerable impact for social media behaviour and may revolutionize crime and the parameters of deviant sexual behaviour. On the other hand, the work of R. Langevin is almost the same with Debbie Nathan’s article. Computer plays a great part of immediate and fast spreading of sexual themed films or images, which changes the behaviour of a certain person. Since Computer using is very accessible, nowadays, pornography addiction through internet would be an effect would be an effect that would destroy one’s perception or outlook about sex. According to Gordon B. (2009). “Pornography or sexual explicit image is more intense than a dirty or spoiled food. Our body has immune system to prevent spreading of diseases from those foods. On the other hand, someone who is used to viewing pornography record it in retrieval system called brain. The brain doesn’t filtrate and drain out that dirt entering our brain. Once it has recorded, you’re supposed to retrieve and to recall it. You will be away from significant things in the world. Pornography has destructive effect on our personal relation. Destroys the ability of an individual to enjoy the normal pleasure of spiritual relation in opposite sex. Because of numb conscience, pornographers ansd porn patrons would be encouraged to emulate what they without thinking the possible effects on their lives. This means of measuring evilness does

not know how bad it is but the effects it can bring to others, once, they used internet and other source and sort of pornography, and they become sinful.
