An Italian study showed that the more porn men watch the less likely they are to have an erection when they want to have sex in real life. Exposure to lurid images and films in the news media is de-sensitising so many young men that they are increasingly unable to become excited by ordinary sexual encounters.
If Women didnāt expect men to be beyond human maybe it wouldnāt be a problem. As it stands women are their own worst enemy when it comes to dating.
(I voted yes even if Iām not entirely sure this shows solidāhehācausation and even though Iām pretty sure my sex drive was lower than most peopleās to begin with. But, hell, even if I did, Iād probably watch even more just to slay my sex further, especially since porn is comedy.)
Yeah, this kinda seems like old news. Or at least somewhat common sense, even if I doubt itās as clear-cut (not a pun) as the article makes it, especially with its focus on menās āneedā to perform in the bed in the first placeāso I guess women are just allowed to starfish and weāre not good if weāre not currently fucking someoneāand its already being used by at least one of those āmoral guardianā groups. Even if it was more clearly true, Iād still find siding with those people rather distasteful even as a prude myself.
Similarly, a large part of it could easily also be cyclical in that men who canāt get turned on already or are ābad in bedā or have partners who are ābad in bedā (hence the starfish comment) end up looking at a lot of porn because itās easier to get off with less pressure (again, not a pun) and less judgment (from a specific person). Besides, you generally know your own body better than another person, even if you arenāt constantly touching yourself (down there), so thereās less chance to be ābad in bedā with yourself. So, yeah, again this doesnāt seem to clearly link causation, though Iām not sure if there would be a way to find a definite answer in this regardāthis is one of the reasons I am not a scientist.
Meh. Even if it really is slaying libidos left and right like some castrating form of Buffy, then Iād still argue itās not all bad since itās functioning as a ghetto form of birth control and we hardly need anymore people on this planet. Hey, maybe we should start pumping porn into third world countries 24/7 (instead of just making people from those places sex slaves).
Rambling almost as its end, that article also had the predictable āoh gods, this is so true! Watching a lot of porn leads to kink. Kink leads to evil. Evil leads to sufferingā judgmental Jedi comments in just the most recent ones. I donāt want to imagine how many similarly idiotic ones if I bothered to read all of them. Gods, itās like I look at comments on Internet news sites solely to remind myself why and how much I loathe people.
I donāt think porn is the issue here. Itās the fact that you use your dick too much that makes it harder to have an erection. In my experience, if you just leave it alone for a while, youāll go back to normal. Dicks get tired, thatās all.
I watch porn on lonely nights where I am locked away in my room and canāt get to a female.
When a female is in my presence, I TEAR THAT SHIT UP!
Shitty, study is shitty.
