How can one ascertain such a general effect from such a specific cause?
I think there are many tiers of cause and effect.
Some women find that the porn provides their partners with great ideas to put in practice, so they help add variety to their love lives... for those, I suppose it's a good thing.
Some women find that their partners start treating them much like the actors do in the movies.... that's not so good.
Some women find that their bodies can't compare to those young, slim, fit, etc bodies in the movies... not just the porn movies, though... so I doubt that this bit has a significant influence.
Some guys get problems because they can't perform as well as the guys in the movies... and that leads to a crappy lovelife and influences their ladies...
The counterpart is that some women expect their guys to perform as well as the movie guys... and, when they don't, the ladies get frustrated.
The reality is that it's a complex issue.
Porn is a movie, made with actors. The positions are on purpose for the camera, not for enjoying actual lovemaking.
When people try to copy it, it will rarely work out for the couple who want to enjoy each other.
