Pornography Among Men

This is from Herb Reese, New Commandment Ministry.

 It’s no secret that American men have a problem with porn. Here are the sad statistics:

  • 68% of young men visit a porn site at least once a week.

  • 12% of all websites are pornographic.

  • 25% of all search engine requests are porn-related.

But things are different for Christian men, right?

Wrong.

According to a 2014 survey by Barna Group and reported in Charisma Magazine, Christian men are just as vulnerable to pornography.

Among Christian men between 18 and 30 years old:

  • 77 percent look at pornography at least monthly.

  • 36 percent view pornography on a daily basis.

  • 32 percent admit being addicted to pornography (and another 12 percent think they may be).

Among middle-aged Christian men (ages 31 to 49):

  • 77 percent looked at pornography while at work in the past three months.

  • 64 percent view pornography at least monthly.

  • 18 percent admit being addicted to pornography (and another 8 percent think they may be).

Among married Christian men:

  • 55 percent look at pornography at least monthly.
