This problem is already materializing. What do you recommend for solutions?

For starters, make sure nobody under 18 can watch porn and figure out regulations that hold the companies accountable. If a 13 year old can be kept from online gambling, they can be kept from online porn. It doesn't have to be 100% effective, just start trying. It shouldn't be that hard to make a lot of improvement. I'm actually sort of disturbed that this hasn't already happened and that the current state of things isn't seen as a problem.
The answer to these type of questions is almost always let it run its course and in a few generations the gene pool will change to favor people where this is steadily less and less a problem. It is important to note that that is not the correct answer because it is a good answer, it is the correct answer because the alternatives are draconian and terrible to the point of being worse.
