I can explain a lot of the disconnect: I simply don't believe you.
For one thing, because the decrease in CSA over time is so well-known that I am pretty sure one of the PDFs I have saved refers to it as having been "common knowledge" in the 2000s. I have a hard time understanding how someone could apparently have studied this topic in detail and not come across this.
For another, I posted 3 sources and you 'evaluated' them within 15 minutes of me posting them, and of course found issues with all of them.
Yes, I can see that you are replying cordially, but that doesn't necessarily mean you're being forthcoming, either. I've grown extremely tired of this type of discourse.
Currently it's 2025 - in the early 2000s when most of the sources you linked come from there wasn't even Facebook let alone pornhub. The ones reporting on more recent times seen to have consensus that factors in reporting, especially covid, make it difficult to come to any conclusion. So a fair point of discussion that seems to be a far cry from "common knowledge". I don't know what you're aiming for but it's hard to take it in good faith really.
Or, I don't know. Spend less time with TERF/SWERF, anti-pornography third-wave feminist lines of thought and argument, at least to the point where you regain the ability to recognize anything else when you see it.
This is the one thing Nietzsche said that's worth hearing, the shitty little edgelord he always was: it looks back, and you need to watch that. I think you haven't been. Your problem, not mine, thank goodness. I'd say "good luck," but given there is quite evidently nothing too low for you to think of me, your fortunes are entirely your own miserable business and frankly I both hope and expect you will fail.
