Response to Editorial Comment: "Profiles of Cyberpornography Use and Sexual Well-Being in Adults".

We thank the author of the editorial comment for the thoughtful remarks on our study. Research on the effects of pornography is still in its infancy. Despite strong social pressure for rapid closure, we should be cautious before concluding that pornography use is universally harmful or beneficial. Our contribution shows that subgroups of pornography users report differential sexual outcomes. Most of our sample was composed of recreational users reporting positive sexual outcomes, including higher sexual satisfaction. High-frequency compulsive use was restricted to 12% of our sample, and another 13% reported low use but significant distress and negative sexual outcomes that cannot be understood within an addiction model.
