True, but the causal link is hard to demonstrate. There's also a drop in friends, especially close friends. In-person social activity is down across the board.

Not that porn definitely isn't a factor, but I'm pretty certain there's larger factors at play.

Plausibly, they don't have a taste for sex with people who don't look like porn stars.

But as you say, demonstrating that as a causal link would be hard.
