Children are naturally curious about sexuality, and the more we try to hide it from them the more curious they will be. So I think it's good that they have access to the subject when they do become curious about it. Unfortunately, porn is a very poor teacher when it comes to sexuality because it's inherently degrading, exploitive, and unrealistic. It teaches them almost nothing of what they really need to know, and presents what it does teach as being acceptable, and even laudable in real life, which it isn't.
It isn't children having access to explicit sexual content that I object to, it's their having access to industrial grade pornography that's designed to hoodwink the fantasies of even intelligent and worldly adults, for the sole purpose of monetary profit. But unfortunately, in our culture, profit is the singular and sole purpose for EVERYTHING we do, and for determining what we will allow and what we won't. So our children are watching all this horrible sexual exploitation and abuse and thinking that it's "normal" sexual behavior. And then they are emulating it their actual life. Which is something most adults don't even do.
