By age 15, I would say most people have seen porn. Whether they do it regularly or if they just stumbled upon in it somehow will depend on how interested they are in porn. However, I wouldn't say there's anything wrong with it. It's a pastime for many people your age and older as well. Now, if you're thinking about listening to what your parents tell you, that's a different story. But then, you can probably remind them that a lot of the kids your age are having sex already and I'm not sure if you're having sex on top of being addicted to porn or not. Ultimately, it's up to you whether you want to keep doing it or not. Will it be listen to the parents or go with your desires?

Well here's my deal. I listen to my parents when they provide reasonable explanations for their restrictions. For example, their explanation for refraining from actual intercourse with a female at my age is reasonable: unwanted pregnancy, STDs, rape accusations (on top of 15 year old sex being illegal), risks that are small and possibly fabricated, but ones that I'm not willing to take (which means I'm not sexually active).
However, it seems that they are unsure what to do about porn. I think they just go with the masses when they say I shouldn't watch it, and when asked to provide a reason they aren't sure how to proceed.
Since they usually are reasonable people, I came here to make sure I'm not missing anything when I disobey them. So far, your feedback along with Xero has only confirmed my skepticism, so thanks for replying.
