I read online a few articles that say that porn rewires your brain and makes your sexual relationships worse.

I don't really think this is the case. I can only speak for myself though.

Basically if I want to watch it then I will, and fuck anyone who tells me I shouldn't. I do what I like to do. If they don't want to watch it then that's their business.

I believe there's a lot of evidence that it certain creates distorted expectations about sex in young people. Obviously, there are also those who are addicted to it, and those who get more pleasure from watch porn than actual sex with a real person.

Soo..... is it bad for you? probably. :lol:

I tend to judge us against our ancestors, simply because the propensity of homosapien experience supplies a lot more basis for consideration than just the people existing in the here and now.

There's a temptation to regard porn as unnatural. But actually when you think about it, all it's done is individualize the process of consuming comodified sex.

Truth be told, from what a hear a donkey show is probably about as freaky as most of the freakiest porn. It's not lost on me that our ancestors also kept donkeys.

So, maybe if we measure porn against a donkey show, it could be less damaging, because there's less participation. Also, if you consider say an Ancient Mesopotamian donkey show (as the base example), there's a good chance a lot of rape and stuff went along with it.

So, it just might be that the Age of Pornography is an advancement. That's where my logic might lead.

Donkeys? Why mention donkeys? @Crantag is this some sort of subliminal mind washing you’re trying on us to program people to hunt down and engaging in non consensual sexual activities with whichever Democrats can be caught?

Obsession in porn re-wires the brain and causes sexual dysfunction. The sudden rise in impotent young males has links to watching porn as well.

So if you think that is bad for your health then yes, yes it is.

There is a growing body of evidence that says that looking at "Porn is bad" web sites is bad for your mental health. Researchers have found a number of negative mental and social effects associated with looking at websites that say that porn has deleterious effects on the individual and society. These include moralism leading to reduction in social network, anger leading to rage and in some cases depression.

You have just described the personality traits of AS on PoFo in one sentence. It appears someone is watching too much porn... :lol:

People who never get a sexual release get really mad and that's what leads to rape.


Do you think people is SA aren't watching porn? How naive.

I agree with your point about sexual release. But like any addiction, too much porn is bad for your health. Perhaps in moderation don't you think?

The point of bringing up the donkey show was as a substitute for the spectacle of sex.

But any sort of sex shows could fill the bill, probably. I think that both the spectacle of sex, and prostitution, were common commercial activities since way back.

But the issue of access for children, is a big one. And in the case of the live spectacle, while kids may get in sometimes where liberal customs prevail I do suppose, for the most part they are physically barred in most cases.

I'm sort of glad I wasn't growing up right now, the best I could do was load pictures on a dial up modem, similar to steeling a playboy. I think that the access for kids is a big issue, and perhaps the biggest issue, as well as incredibly difficult to solve.

It amazes me how anyone could consider watching it normal. Whenever I have stumbled upon it on the internet I always find the images look violent and very unpleasant. I'm not sure how anyone could find it arousing. It is violent imagery, debauchery. Watching or looking at it is shameful. I think anyone who produces it should go to jail.

If you are not trying g to get me to fuck Democrats then I have no idea what you are talking about. I don’t see what donkeys have to do with it.

Oh yes? Just stumbled across it, eh? :eh:

Well, regarding the porn I just happened to stumble across, some of it is quite repulsive. So I think we agree.

Actually, it is disturbing to think that some people find it arousing. When I get on the bus on my way to work, I look around at the other passengers and wonder what sick ideas are going though their filty minds. So I guess the effect of porn on people like you and me is to create doubt about the people around us.

Having said that, I don’t mind perving at photos of naked pretty ladies. I am male and women’s bodies are appealing to me. I should make the disclaimer that I am a little old fashion and that to my mind sex is about making babies. Those who like the disturbing stuff seem to think sex is about extreme pleasure or enacting dominance. I would prefer to not have been made aware of the existence of these people.

I know the feeling Special Olympian. I got a penis reduction and I still have to fold it in half. Great idea with the mirrored walls. Sort of a Return of the Dragon sort of masturbation theme going on there.
