So, Facebook is triggering the hell out of me. I keep getting suggestions to like the pages of Porn stars and escorts... Suggested to me because my friends like them. My MARRIED FEMALE FRIENDS!

I guess it's time for a massive friend dump.

are these the links shown on the right side of the newsfeed? You should be able to block them. FB does track your interests. Is it possible someone is using your PC to look at porn? I believe that fb along with sites like google track your habits to better tailor ad offers.

No, it's suggestions in the actual newsfeed, based on my friends' likes. I keep hiding it... These same women keep sharing pictures from the pages, as well... I'm trying to stay off FB for a bit... But... As a SAHM, i get bored...

You can block "likes" from certain friends as well. You should be able to set your FB filters to greatly reduce the triggers.

Of course, a "friend dump" can be empowering too!!!
