I'm not sure you're really trying to understand the problem here. Why do you think people don't want to answer the question?

It's a simple question with an obvious answer. The real question is, why would you ask that? You're not just looking for a, "Yes." The obvious suspicion is that it's a leading question, and you'll use it to try and coerce a subsequent point. It doesn't matter if you're genuinely not trying to do that. It's upon you to recognize how your own question may be perceived.

The reason the guy replied, "define kids, etc" was because he was already anticipating that this isn't the real answer you're looking for. I can say with considerable confidence that the vast majority of people here will understand this.

I agree that kids should not be exposed to porn.
