Besides if you as an adult do not have self control when you are watching TV to either change the channel or tune out what is being said then how can we expect you to not click on the picture of that sexy woman in the corner saying come chat with me.
Filtering works better for children to avoid exposure early on. It's also a great impediment. Like an alarm on a car. It will keep honest people honest.

However, accountability is far better. It's not playing "gotcha," but it's a great way of "bearing one another's burdens" and making confession one to another.

TV is not always about "self control." Imagery feeds a man's lust demon. For some, the struggle is greater. There's a distinction between trying to claim self-control in pride, and humbly not trusting one's own self, realizing how close all of us are to sin.
