You just described it in your first post by say this "Porn is a way to escape the harsh reality that we have ended up with somebody who is fat, ugly, or stupid, and that is the best we will ever do. " and "Most people give up on the dream, and settle for whatever they can get." That pretty much says it.
The break up of marriages is varied and the epidemic is not because of porn, sexless, or cheating....those still existed at the beginning of time. There has never been a time that the human race has ever been innocent. The reason the rates are so high is that women are less dependent on men to support them and can easily leave and support themselves. Over a hundred years ago most women were raised to to be chattel and had no other means but to depend on a husband......If you ever have studied or read anything about sociology and the sexual revolution, you can see this all started by the invention of the birth control pill. Women were finally able to make their own choices, get a decent education, career, and even to get out of a sh itty marriage.
