More women lured to pornography addiction: Survey finds 1 in 6 caught up in steamy Web

The Washington Times reports:
Researchers have long known that the Internet has contributed to pornography addiction by making it so easily accessible — no need to go out in a raincoat, pull a hat down over the face, and sneak furtively into the red-light district.
