I think 16 year olds should be allowed to buy softcore porn ie Fiesta magazine before going on to that stuff. And it makes sense to have some experience of sex before going into the industry.. as for your question well personally most 16 year olds have probably seen more in real life than me, so let them watch it. For me, at 26, it is still pretty strong..

 Hello.
In the old days when we had censorship you could not watch porn until you were 21+, now that things have changed a bit the censorship law changed, even thou the gov changed dropped the age of consent, they decided that 16 was not the appropriate age for young people (no offense intended)minds to be polluted by porn material, so they gave the problem back to the censor and they decided that 18 was the appropriate age to see porn and the law lords agreed, that is why you cannot rent or watch porn at 16, it is against the law.
Hope this will help you.
