I mean if it's your own money who cares? My family has seen the books and they're fine with it since idc what their opinions are of it. I just say it's what I like so they stop after that. My dad wasn't too thrilled, but I said hey at least its on paper (^^)b
I want to agree with you but I think some people are just not tolerant. Some will even go as far as destroying your property because they think they can do no wrong. Personally I just wouldn't live with that type of person but that's an entirely different issue...
If you're family is at the point they are destroying your property which I mind you is only porn then you have a seriously fucked up family and you should move out as soon as possible, because unless I am personally paying them rent/using their money to buy the content, they have no right to destroy my personal property. I know when I go to visit my family I've had fakku books sent to them due to length of vacation stays when ordering the books and my family has been fine with the content. My father had some choice words, but it's whatever.
I understand not everyone can live on their own financially/independently, so in those cases you just have to see what you and your family are comfortable with. To me personally porn is not unnatural, we all have looked at it at some point in life and what we purchase is our business. People can say what they want about it just like you as an individual can think what you want to about others hobbies.
I more or less made the statement that it doesn't matter what others think in relation to those who live at home and fear what others may think when you buy the material, not the hostile reaction you mentioned. I never told my family what it was I was purchasing when they accidentally opened up the box, they were a bit surprised but even with their choice words I just said, "it's what I enjoy" etc etc and they were fine after that lol.
