According to statistics Dines cites in "Pornland," there are more than four million pornographic websites worldwide, an estimated 420 million pages, and 68 million search requests for pornography each day. At a time when the average boy first views pornography at age 11, Dines argues that we need to recognize porn for what it really is: a cultural force that is shaping the sexual attitudes of an entire generation.
