FAIL.
Mice are very close in terms of biology:

[color=rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.9)]Almost all of the genes in mice share functions with the genes in humans. [/color]


Fail.

Close may count in horseshoes and hand grenades, but not in neurology, and, again, it doesn't show that one causes the other.  The author makes clear that what overlap exists is unclear, as well as that the implications for human behavior are unclear.

FAIL.

Quote:Dopamine plays a role in how we feel pleasure. It's a big part of our unique human ability to think and plan. It helps us strive, focus, and find things interesting.

Fail^2

Dopamine is a neurotransmitter which plays a role in addiction.  It is not an addictive chemical.  It plays a role in many behaviors and is therefore too general to be uniquely linked to specific behaviors other than as a general neurological mechanism that plays a role in brain function.  It also plays a role in enjoying chocolate.  And your claim was that it leads to violence.  Dopamine in general has no specific link to violence so your citing dopamine is irrelevant.

FAIL.

FAIL.

Yes. Sex is the execution of pornography.

Fail^3

Uh, no.  Sex is represented in some pornography.  Pornography isn't sex.  Your citation explains that excessive consumption of pornography [the representation of sex] can lead to problems with potency and performance of actual sex.  Your claim was that addiction to actual sex can lead to mutations in the brain including homosexuality, not that pornography does.  So your link does not support your claim.

FAIL.
