    I hope you're sitting down when you read this, EthicalBro, because otherwise, it will floor you:

    "Fidelity" is not a natural instinct in humans. Culture, society, education, moral, values, religion, the advent of marriage, expectations of faithfullness, etc have all contributed to evovle fidelity into what it is today, but it's all learned and taught behavior in us.

    Secondly, sex and sexuality existed long before pornography did. Sex, sexuality and pornography existed long before the internet did. People don't need and have never "needed" pornogrphy and/or the internet to "teach" them infidelity. (Once again, fidelity itself is learned/taught. If it were not, the instances of infidelity would be greater, and most likely, the expectations of being faithful would be decreased.) Anyone who claims that they "learned" to be unfaithful by something from the internet may just be looking for an excuse outside of themself.

    The ancient Greeks, Romans, Turks, Chinese, Japanese, Burmese, Europeans, Africans, etc, etc, etc all had some form of what can or was considered pornography as part of their verbal stories, written stories, paintings, sculptures, baskets, pottery, etc. Have you ever heard of the Kama Sutra?

    As technology presented more and better ways for humans to communicate or record events, pornography grew right along with it. Throughout the 17th, 19, and 19th centuries, paintings, books, magazines, photographs, recordings, and films made pornography readily available to the masses, and filled the pockets of its distributors with scads fo money along the way. Would you believe the even Holy Bible contains references to sexuality, to include marital relations, extra-marital relations, rape, incest, pregnancy, masturbation, circumcision, sexual attraction, and flirting? It's true.

    Next, you used the phrase " . . . will fidelity ever become popular?" The way you've written it assumes that it's never been popular, which is far from the truth. I think you may have meant " . . . will fidelity ever become popular again . . . ", but even that is flawed. Fidelity is quite popular wordwide. Not with every person on the planet, not in every culture, society, etc, but is is still popular.

    I hope this has been helpful.
