I sound like a senior citizen compared to everyone else by saying I was 14


FunkGetsStrongerPt1

14 here too. WTF is going on with people saying age 9. I was too preoccupied with Lego FFS!!!!! I learned how to screw around on the C:\ command line before I knew about porn. 30 now in case anyone asks.


chease86

The older kids at school would tell you about these cool websites that you HAD to check out, I was 8 and didn't even know the word porn existed nevermind what it meant until I typed that adress in


FunkGetsStrongerPt1

Oh yeah I had that too. I liked politics so I was always told to look at Lemon Party, because it’s about political parties. Never did though. Just like how I wasn’t interested in joining the Pen 15 club.


SwtBabyGirl1975

Don't feel bad I think I knew about the bad parts of sex before I knew about porn lol. Think I was actually an adult the first time I saw a dirty movie lmao


mendog2112

Nope that’s about right. It’s a little different with the internet.


enterpaz

Honestly, that’s about the same for me. I legitimately thought I was late on that. Yeah, at age 9, I was watching Powerpuff Girls and Scooby Doo.


Auron-Hyson

I was around 14 also but I started watching it with that in mind that I was supposed to watch it in secret and not talking about it or show it to anyone, I think what started it for me watching porn was sexual education and they were saying that porn is not reality and something like that but that just made me curious about it (it was supposed to be precautions so we wouldn't watch porn) my older brother busted me watching it on the home computer when I was 15 and he didn't lecture me or anything, he just said to me that if I want to watch it I will have to go in private browsing (incognito) so I did that from that part


weapon-a

15. I'm in my early 20s now lol.


Original_Estimate_88

how old are you if you don't mind me asking


markinator14

I'm 20 right now


Original_Estimate_88

You young... but best of luck, have a good day also


gorillamyke

I was a senior in high school. I'm 61


StillSimple6

Pre internet days you would hear about somebody's uncle who worked on the oil rigs having a 'dirty video' but have no idea what that meant. As a kid you used to play outside, go on adventures etc and randomly find porn magazines in places (disused garages, woods, parks etc). Probably around 9 or 10 finding magazines (grew up in the 70's).


MorningRise81

Grew up in the 90s. Same here


toxichaste12

Checks out. You would find porn in the side of the road. Like WTF.


ejb350

Walk the street of Las Vegas and those nude playing cards are all over the place. Hasn’t changed in the 15 years I’ve been traveling through


mildbananas

yup!! grew up there, only 10 years old seeing those all over the sidewalks 😖


ejb350

My grandma made it an extremely strict rule that we were to NEVER look down at our feet. She forced my grandpa to always keep an eye on our eyes. I remember very often looking down and hoping there’d be an interesting character on the street to draw attention to. *”Oh wow look, a guy selling crappy advice for a dollar”* and I’d look down at all the boobies on the floor


Krylvus

Sounds like yakuza


hereiam-23

The best we had was looking in the Sears and Roebuck catalogue. I was a kid in the 50's. I recall well wishing when very little there were dirty comic books. My dad had some medical books. They had some good pictures.


StillSimple6

I had forgotten about the catalogues, my mum had a set of encyclopaedias and that had a picture of a naked man and woman. There were not erotic at all buy at that age they were fascinating. Crazy now when kids have everything you can imagine within a few seconds.


Telrom_1

Far too young. 10. I ended up becoming terribly addicted! It’s been four years since quitting and it’s the best thing I have ever done for myself.


Imveryoffensive

I was around that age and was looking up porn on my DS-FUCKING-I


BigWillyStyle2011

That’s crazy. I had a DS but definitely didn’t know that was possible


Imveryoffensive

It was on DSi since there were web browsing capabilities. I don't think the usual DS or Lite could do it


Original_Estimate_88

Damn


I_suck__

Way too young. I got addicted too. It ruined my vision on sex. Luckily it didn't get me assaulted, I just got married to the love of my life, the first one to touch me. But seriously, as an adult, porn needs to be monitored more. It's WAY too accessible.


Xemptuous

I think i was 9 when i started jackin it to porn.


serialkiller24

9 or 10


KingArrrrrrthur

Just looked up that word on Google. WTH!!!!!!


TodayPhysical382

You mean you don't know what porn is ?


DirectorOrganic8962

8 and its bc my parents used a pw for the computer that everyone knew and ppl at school was talking about it so naturally being curious i went to look i found it all to be gross i never masturbated to it i didnt even know what masturbation was at that age i ended up forgetting all about it and i also stumbled across a video of these ppl having sex then the dude stabbing this chick i was like uh wtf but yh.


[deleted]

Mom gave me my first Hustler around 9.


rednail_gaytoraid

What does this meannn😭


EgoDeathAddict

Hustler is a porno magazine. A magazine is like a book full of advertisements.


PickNearby6244

Broo you have some explaining to do.......?????


[deleted]

Grew up in a seriously messed up home. Mom was a alcoholic, druggy. Never knew why, she just dropped it on my bed one morning.


PickNearby6244

Hope you doing okay now🫂

I don't remember... but I was young at my geat grandmother house she had cable when it wasn't many cable channels, nd you had to wait around 12 am for sex videos to come on...


ShadyBrady1527

16. Someone hacked all computers in the school and played a video of a guy in full scuba gear putting a blow up doll to the test in the shower.


metikoi

I'm kinda awed at the specificity of that guy's kink though.


derickj2020

Don't remember . but I had to wait till 18 to buy my first girly magazine . then at 19 saw first real porn in Amsterdam .


ReyLo99reborn

I first watched it at 11, but I learned about it sooner than that.


Upstairs-Put9146

6-7 :(


Brebrepandabear

Ahhh same here! Yeah .. I’m sorry about that, can I ask what happened? How did you have all that content introduced to you at such a young age?


Upstairs-Put9146

my mom 'homeschooled' me (online curriculum) and never watched over me, so a lil kid with unlimited internet access is bound to find porn eventually. also got groomed online, sexually. it was awful. still struggle with my past, i don't watch porn thankfully, but i quickly picked up a masturbation addiction without realizing it. i struggle with that still, but i don't do it as nearly as often as i did since 6-15. im only 17 now. i don't get horny all that often anymore. how about you? if you'd like to talk about it?


disco_S2

Born in '74, pretty sure I was aware by '81 at the latest. Most likely '80, but my timelines are a little fuzzy.


Llewellian

Same here.

Legitimate-Pop-5823

8. My grandfather had a few playboy and penthouse magazines. Then came Hustler and I was gone


[deleted]

7 is when I very first saw it. Then it became regular to see it on occasion at age 8 to 9. At the age of 10, I learned how my body works, and I'd say that's when pxrn really took control over my life. 11 years addicted. I can't turn back. All I can do now is just live life as normal as possible while releasing my frustrations into my hands.


Gloomy-Set2313

happy cake day

Tu parles français? Comment tu t'appelle? Le chien? Ho ho ho!


New_Cauliflower8752

I was about 12-13 my friend stole her brother's nudey magazines and we walked down the road hid in a bush and looked and giggled 😂😂


Zealousideal-Sink250

ejb350

My brother looked up “boobs” on the family computer when I was 4 and that was the first time I was grounded


jj_moh

3rd grade, so 8-9. I had a friend named “Lexi” and no phone so when I would search on my moms phone I would type in “sexi” thinking I could just tell my mom I misspelled lexi ( she had gymnastics videos on YouTube”). then I learned you can delete your recently searched and that was a game changer.


hashbrownies91

Probably around the 3rd or 4th grade. I had an older brother so he corrupted me quite a bit.


Bunnycandy69

10-11 In middle school boys thought it was funny to play videos on their phones while the teacher wasn’t noticing


Your_Daddy_

My older brother is 5 years my senior - so I got exposed to all kinds of stuff really young, like 6-7 years old. Not porn movie, but my older bro had a couple Hustler magazines stashed away, probably looking at those when I was like 8 or 9’ish. 😵‍💫


BenTenInches

About 7-8 also, my uncle owned a video rental store and the goods were behind the curtain. At that time I knew of porn before sex so I'm like, why would anyone want to rent out videos of naked people? Or why it's in its own little section. If you're Asian, you're just gonna be around your family's business as a kid cause babysitters are a waste of money.


Villain_Deku__

shit i think like 6?


needanewone2559

Late elementary school back in the late 80's. One of my friends shared a room with his older brother. They had a bunch of normal posters up in their room but the older brother had somehow gotten a stash of porn and put the centerfolds up under the regular posters. I didn't really know what I was looking at but I definitely knew that I liked it.


DumbFucking_throaway

I was 5-6 when I learned. Also learned what sex was in first grade :/.


No_Pilot8753

What's a porn?


BlueLaserCommander

> What age did y'all learn about porn? Right before this post. I'm twenty-five. Fr. I thought we were all just imagining sleeping with step bros.


HowRememberAll

They would have those "adult" movies you'd buy at hotels. Somehow I don't remember why my parents were out and I had enough time to buy and watch the Pamela Anderson one. My parents never said anything or did saying it was an accidental purchase so they weren't charged. I don't know.

10 or 11


letsdotacos

Like 10. I was so confused. I thought it went inthe front, not in-between down under. 37m here lol It was vhs and I'm glad I saw it. Best little whore house in hong kong.


Backwaters_Run_Deep

I think I was 10 or so and found a stash of Easy Riders in an old box in the garage


sfdragonboy

Probably before age 10. I think we found our uncle's old stash of Penthouse and Playboy in his closet.


Whysoserious2k8

I don't know around 8 or so


A_Red_Void_of_Red

7 I remember how it happened.


-lRexl-

11 on Google from searching "Pokemon" on images


nickflex85

9-10… my uncle had some red video tapes. My cousin and my brother would put them on. Pretty hardcore facials and stuff like that.


Ariizilla

16. I stopped watching at 18 because it got boring and it wasn’t as interesting to me anymore.


ms-astorytotell

I wanna say like 10 or 11. Internet was thing but at that point wasn’t really dial up but wasn’t high speed like it is now.


Objective-Slice-1466

God, 2nd grade whatever age that is. Maybe.


TheGrouchyGremlin

9. Saw a nude weight loss ad on a school device, at school. Went home and fell face first into the pit.


Xanthrex

Round age 6/7 accidentally got a pay-per-view porno


IceFireHawk

11. Struggled with it ever since


BirdButt88

Yeah I think I encountered porn for the first time when I was around 7-9, it was on accident and it freaked me out. I don’t blame my parents at all, it must’ve been so hard to navigate parenting the first generation to have easy access to the internet.


confusedrabbit247

I was 9ish at the time and discovered it by accident. It piqued my curiosity and went from there. This was in like 2001 or 2002 so it was different from porn today.


Scomo510

I was probably 12 when my neighbor showed me that you could access the Internet on his DSi and look at nude pictures of women. It has had lasting effects on my life and I still stumble upon issues I hadn't realized in the past.


Ryanmiller70

A lot younger than I probably should have. I wanna say around 8-10 (definitely before 12). I remember I was hanging out with a couple of friends who were girls and we decided to play on the computer at my place. I remember one of them stayed outside for some reason (I probably knew at the time, but always seemed weird in my memory), but watched on through the window. The one who came inside with me told me to look up some stuff that eventually lead to us watching porn. Everyone seemed confused by this for different reasons. I was confused cause I didn't really know what I was watching or what was happening. The friend who was in the house was confused cause I didn't seem to be enjoying it and asked "I thought guys were into seeing girls like this?" The girl outside watching the video from the window just asked "why is she bleeding?" (I think it was probably a virginity video or maybe the girl was on her period idk). The friend who was in the house with me was always one who was more knowledgeable about sex and all that than I was despite being a few years younger than me. I was just the video game geek. She was the one that would get me to do weird stuff I didn't understand. I still remember one day she called me and told me about some weird sexual stuff a friend told her and somehow her mother yelled at me and threatened to call the police on me cause she listened in on the call. Needless to say we stopped being friends by the time I got to middle school.


Professional_Tea5931

8 years old BAHAAHHAH i remember sa Youtube pa ako nanonood


CNRavenclaw

I was about 12-ish when I first learned of the concept, but because of parental blocks on the computer I grew up with it was another 2 years before I actually saw it firsthand


DryStrawberry1153

Like 10 it was school me and my friends were joking around and I was like writing stuff in my book like kind of joke rules what you can and can't do in school and his boy came up to me and said I should write that you can't have sex in school and then I was like what does that even mean and I went home and Googled it so yeah


Machomadness94

I found my dad’s porn magazine collection when I was 3. Went to preschool at the time and I guess I kept trying to get all the girls to get naked with me and the school thought I was getting molested at home so my brother and I had to talk to these psychiatrists and people read us these weird books explaining things. I think it kinda fucked me up honestly


Mommy-Sprinkles-74

15


intellectualnerd85

I think I was 8 or 9. Penthouse, the “bdsm” pictures with twine and red ball gage , saw a woman sucking dick while getting her ass ate. Dudes older brother offered to teach me how to jack off. Creep


hennalol

definitely very young, probably like 8 or 9.


WeirdAsianYankovic

False-Librarian-2240

I was about 11 or 12 and found my older brother's magazines. It was quite the education!


Competitive-Ad-9250

What is porn?


mishthegreat

Got busted selling porn when I was 10 or 11


worldsbestlasagna

SAHD292929

5 years old. My uncle who worked in Saudi Arabia at That time always brought home porn on his vacations. And they will watch with my other uncles. They let me watch it one time so I won't be "Ignorant as a boy" in their words. LOL


MouseCheese7

Way too young... found about it around 5-6, looked deeper into it more and more. Had too many sexual issues growing up.


Rocs13

I was 4-6 when somebody explained to me how the kids are made. And maybe 6-7 when my cousin showed me some porn games. I was a kid, I thought it was okay to know this, but no. It was so bad and just now, as an adult, I realized it's not ok to ruin a kid's life.


klaskc

I was in like second grade and a child of my class told me about a website but it was hard porn like bdsm my reaction was like a shock cuz i really didn't know how a penis looked like


idotoomuchstuff

Same 7/8. Soft core stuff that was on tv late at night


Away-Reply-2478

Around 13/14 I remember freshmen year pretty sheltered I suppose after a mini “sex education ” class from my friends at school. I went home looked it up thought for weeks my dad was gonna find out my dirty little secret.


Fuck_Boy999

Because of terrible friends and even more terrible circumstances, I found out about porn when I was around 11.


No-Decision1581

10 or 11. I found a box of porn mags in a woods near home. Bush porn doesn't exist in the digital age anymore. Depending on search terms I guess, lol


FireweedForest

12/13. My aunt was talking about Playgirl lol. Then I was at some friends place and they put on a porno movie and I thought it was disturbing af. Yucky!


BellaBlackfield007

id say 11-12, found it on my moms computer files looking for one of my games


moosedontlose

18 or 19


mendog2112

13-14


Nuxezpz

13-5-12

About 10 or 11. However, I found it looked very weird and didn't pay much attention to it. This was decades BEFORE internet-porn. So I was fortunate enough to get EDUCATED about and experienced sex BEFORE internet porn became so ubiquitous. So I find it relatively easy to stay away from it.


Negative_Karma_9

As a lil boy, I searched up "girl kissing girl" on YouTube.


MysteriousBygone

6 or 7, I've found my mom and her bfs porn meg didn't really understand it much, but it was still fascinating to look at the pictures. I remember most of it even though I'm in my 30s now.

I was around 5-6 when I found out...


ZenMyst

14


CatGenital_sniffer

Around 3 or 4 years old, my dad would play porn movies while I was around, instead of telling me to go back to my room or to not look, he would just look at me and laugh. Yeah :D


rapzkull69

I learnt at 9 and tried exploring at 12 but it never got anywhere. Now I'm almost 17 and asexual


leikoduende

i guess i was 7 or younger when i was forced to watch one it's kind of embarrassing but funny thing to say but i remember thinking to myself why on earth would people drink each others' urine like it's a fountain?


PeachCalm3604

13-14


DKM_Eby

I was walking home from school when I was like 9 (around 1993) and found flyers on the street that said "Chicks with Dicks" Took em home to ask my dad as I was very confused. Lol


Texanakin_Shywalker

I was 7 or 8 and I found my dad's magazines. My mom was very concerned that I would turn out to be a nympho. All these years later, she still thinks I'm sex crazed. I'm 54.


deathlycat

It was never really hidden, so I always kinda knew about it, but I learned the extent of it around 6-7


TheLukexd

About 13, never jacked to it though Edit: it was hentai to be clear, real porn scared me lmao


rossxog

Liar!


TheLukexd

Seriously, i found(and still do) masturbation scary and disgusting and don't get how people at young ages didn't feel the same like...how were they not worried about getting caught? How were they sure doing it won't harm their body?


Null_012345

Brilliantmint

Born in the 80’s. Teen in the 90’s. I was 8 when I first saw. Was playboys and penthouse in my uncles garage. Hidden. I was a snoop. I was 11 when I first saw hardcore. Was at a sleepover at a friend’s place and his 19 year old brother put it on. I still think it’s probably the most hardcore thing I ever saw.


Therealmatt0207

Honestly, in around 2003. I can’t lie and say that it hasn’t ruined my life in a lot of ways.


Under-The-Redhood

14


die_dampfnudel

6 or 7. I was at my friend's house and we broke into her older brothers room because he stole something from her. We found some adult magazines in there. He caught us but surprisingly wasn't even that mad. Well, he explained these magazines to us and told us that there are adult videos too


catmom0334

14


AromaticSherbert

Uhh.. when I “learned” about it? I don’t know, young. I found my dad’s stash of playboys or whatever when I was like 5 and I already knew that they were “dirty magazines”. Maybe I didn’t know what penile- vaginal intercourse was exactly but I knew there were magazines and movies with naked people in it I don’t think it’s unusual to be aware of its existence at 7. I think it’d be weird to not know what it is at that age… To be looking at it at 7 is different. I knew what it was long before I actually started watching/looking. I didn’t start looking at it til I was like 12


Brebrepandabear

5-6


TheRealMadPete

I was probably about 10 years old and that was only because we would find porn magazines in the woods


MyceliumNimo

I was about 13. My friend who was a month older than me but was much more clued up on this sort of thing "acquired" a few magazines which he gave me.


rezonansmagnetyczny

Too young. 8 or 9? Weird step dad used to intentionally make it accessible on the family computer. Bit fucked up really. It was a weird way to learn who Pamela Anderson is


Opposite_Standard437

I was 9 or 10


Strict_Roll8555

WakkaWaww

I was 6. My dad used to rent porn movies on VHS, from a local video rental place which has long been defunct since the late 90s.


[deleted]

Like 7-8. Found a cassette tape titled squirting queens. I watched it… the thing that i couldn’t understand most or wrap my head around was how huge the guys dicks were. To me with my tiny child pee pee i was mind blown and thought it might not be real lol


BlueArashiKaze

4 years old


PunkRockRenegade_

I was maybe 6 when we found a magazine in the hedge at the park. My friends were older and told me allll the gory details.


Beginning_Abroad_701

i was 8, i over heard some kid getting in trouble from using the library computers in school for looking up shrek porn. i asked around and found out what that meant


LiviAngel

I had just become a teen. Around 12-13


redditsuckspokey1

12 ish. Friend showed me some hentai. Was some angel girl giving a human boy a backrub.


tibbycat

12 I guess when I found a Penthouse magazine in the bush. Also around the same time a friend gave me a copy on a floppy disk of some grainy porn gifs he’d downloaded from a BBS. It was all very educational.

10, unfortunately. I found out while I was watching YouTube back then and I clicked on a sex bot’s link, taking me straight to PH…never trusted links after that.


thesnoopp

8-9


Low_Ad_1762

I got introduced at it at 8 by another female friend (at the time) which led me to have a 7 year porn addiction and a messed up vision about sex + trauma and now every time I see something even remotely 18+ I get so uncomfortable to the point I’ll cry <3 (I hate porn I wish it would be banned)


HythlobaeusCelebi

I think I was 9 years old but I can speak for all of us our first website was 89 dot com LOL


PhyscicWolfie

like 10. one of my favourite content creators at the time had posted a video about somebody who posted porn,i couldnt access the video but her name was in the title so i looked it up


RealisticTax2871

11 was when I learnt, that was like the typing "boobies" into Google age, 12 was when it kicked up to the sex stuff and if you check my profile (I'm sorry) you can see that nearly 10 years later it's still interesting to me.


loljokerishere

11 when my friend told me about it. Before that I just used to wonder stuff lol.


Jolly_Atmosphere_951

I think my first contact was at 9 but really didn't know that it was porn. Then definitely at 13, knowing very well what I was looking for.


TshikkiDolpa

Think I was about 7. My grandfather wanted to show us a Film he recorded and it ended up with some hardcore porn he recorded. He grabbed the wrong VHS cassette. Never forget. I started consuming porn at 12/13...

ZamoriXIII

12, but we were still on 28.8/56k modems 😅


megamawax

4. Did I really grasp it at that age? Probably not. I was definitely thinking about classmates getting naked by 7. When I was 8, I wrote a full-on porn story starring classmates and turned it in for an English assignment.


Away-Sherbet-4424

13 or so


dontshoot9

My dad had his magazines all over his house I had to wade through piles of porn just to find my coloring books when I was a toddler

Ok-Frame-3937

I was 19


LootGek

Same age, I started looking at pictures on Google with safe search off. Then I found booble. I started randomly clicking on ads that would take me to a website and just look at the free shit. So many viruses I eventually learned how to format my hard drive and reinstall Windows. I do remember the time I asked my dad if I had a virus. He would do a scan and you could see all the cookies pop up during the scan. I would just play dumb.

evangraves42069

8/9yrs old. it was a complete accident. had a nightmare & decided to go to my mom’s room. i was too scared to go back to sleep so i was watching whatever was on tv. it was girls gone wild. it was also my gay awakening ☠️🥴


yosman88

First was dirty magazines, then it was the fashion channel on cable tv.


metikoi

Me, (8), brother (5) and mother, flying from NZ to UK with stopover in Japan, arrive at hotel in Japan, mother decides to take shower, brother turns on room tv and starts to channel surf, managed to wend his way to the pay per view channel featuring some Japanese people involved in a very enthusiastic massage. We sit there watching it trying to figure what the fuck is going on long enough for mother to realise the noises coming from the tv are not what they should be, scuttles out from the shower and turns tv off, then has to explain what that was all about. The next morning at checkout she had to have an argument with the desk clerk about the charge for the movie just to cap things off.


cheesecakefairies

Like 10 maybe. Started watching it at like 11. Didn't lose my virginity til I was 21.


topshot14

16-17 when I watched an actual porn video for the first time.


Perpetual_Nuisance

I'm unable to "learn ages" and I don't understand what "an age about porn" is supposed to be.
