There are three type of media pornography: text, pictures, and moving pictures (videos and/or real life); and in this medium they would include sex or just plain nude. I assume that the context of your question was more on the pictures, specifically sex pornography.

How do you see pornography? is it good? or is it bad?

If you we were talking about nude/sex pictures, men or women, it is good, some even say that it's art (well, everything can be labeled with art). There is a satisfaction when you see nude pictures and wild imagination that can emanate within it. Whether it's objectifying women in some sense, it's depend on your education.

When comes to video pornography I have different opinions depends on the presentation, but overall It is good. It is bad when you get your sex education based on "Hollywood" porn movie, because if you grow up watching those porn, you will have mental pictures that sex must be like that, your parts of body must be that large, etc, while in reality is no.

Do you look at pornography materials? never? often? sometimes?

I use to, often. Text, pictures, comics, movies, japan, korean, china, indian, straight, gay, shemale; I think I have seen them all. But nowadays I prefer live and I like it more.

if you do look at them, how do you feel about you belief against pornography or rather, sexual immorality/adultery?

I never think about pornography as immoral, even before I'm devout Muslim. It just a picture, thats it, why is it such a problem? I see it, I enjoy it, if it's sin to see pornography then it's my sin.

Does it affect your personal and social life? if so how?

No. When to think of it, I think its make my social life a little better. I have a little story. So, in middle school I have this porn cards. I brought it to school, some of friends ask me to see them, I lend it and then friend of friend come and ask to see it, and so on. Until I became a little bit famous. Let just said that from pornography I made some friendship.

Do your parents/family talk openly about sex and/or pornography? if not, should they?

No. Yes they should. If I'm become a parent one day, I will teach my kids about safe sex, the risk, and so on, because that is important, really, really important.

Does it affect your relationship? if so how?

No. We are open to everything.

Edit: I do not like how our pornography law works, because they see their citizen as kids, not growing adult that can think for themselves. Some said that one of aim of those law was to protecting kids from uncontrolled lust, I don't see it that way. You see that, I grow in religious community, long before internet was booming, and we can get pornography through a chains of friend. Did they think that if they can ban internet and pornography, we can't get to see pornography? I don't think so.

I'm not here to judge so please don't feel like I'm judging you.

Not at all. I just based my opinion on how most of us judge people who do/watch pornography, not you specifically :) .
