Does watching Porn really damage the brain?

[Hiroshi]

Okay, so I realize I'm new to the forum and haven't contributed much.. So I'm not expecting much help on this, but if you can share your (logical) views, it'd be appreciated.

I'm trying to write a post about what porn does to our society and how it affects people.. Just trying to get some views & facts.

Does watching porn really damage the brain? Does it depend on how often you watch it? Some argue their point by saying "I'm not addicted to it, I only watch it occassionaly. It doesn't do any harm. It's just for sexual enjoyment!"

Personally, I can honestly say I've watched porn here and there.. And it's had quite a negative affect on me.

Any thoughts? Thank you.

tbh I think it only affects your brain if you are making the porn, i.e a participant. For example if you was a girl, or a bisexual man and was on the recieving end, you are more in risk of effecting your brain or even brain damage in severe cases.

But don't worry if the guys dick is shorter than 1 meter, in that case it won't reach the brain, so you have nothing to worry about. Another exception is a chinese man.

Play safe, good luck!

Lol, I don't really understand what you're trying to get at. o_o Either that or you didn't understand my question.

You're still a participant if you're participating in viewing it.

Yeah I guess it does effect the brain, but I wouldn't say damage.

^ Now I don't know how much of that is true, but in my personal opinion, I do believe it has a major negative affect.

And honestly, how does porn even reduce rape? Lol. Just because someone's jacking off to porn doesn't mean he isn't going to go out to look for a victim. I think porn rather increases these crimes. There's several porns out there that actually encourages that type of act. There has been strong correlations between rapes and sexual deviance immediately after watching porn.

I've watched quite a few interviews of young girls who've been into the porn industry. And numerous studies have shown that the majority of these girls have either been raped, molested or sexually assaulted. It's quite unfortunate. Do you know how these young women are recruited into the industry? I think anybody who can get off on porn while knowing the full truth is not playing with a full deck.

I've had some heated debates on the subject with 2-3 people at my uni so I just wanted to get some views/opinions on this lol.

I've been guilty myself of having once been addicted to it (would be addicted to it for 3-4 days, given up for a few months but eventually gone back to it.. hopefully this time's for good lol), but then I thought.. If a female friend of mine would consent to being filmed having sex with a stranger, I wouldn't find this healthy and normal. So why would I participate in viewing such act? It's almost as bad as being part of the industry. Would be quite hypocritical..

I'm not gonna get into the whole religious thing though, even though that plays a huge part too but I understand that not everyone would share the same beliefs. Nor am I trying to offend whoever watches it, each to their own lol. Just my personal opinion on the subject based on some facts and personal experience.

Just to add, I'm not saying that this is always the case for all men. It's quite sexist to assume that every man is capable of going out and raping someone. If a woman gets turned on watching a "rape scene" in a movie, doesn't necessarily mean she wants to get raped too lol. I've played bloody games but doesn't mean I'm going to go out and kill people.

It may be the case for quite a lot of people out there though.. (Cases of kids getting 'encouraged' by violent games to go out and knife/shoot at people in their schools, etc etc)

Jusss clearing it up.

I'm only saying that porn isn't healthy for your own self. I don't see it as a positive thing at all. Not relating it to crime rates..

Whoa, sorry for the essay lol.

Getting off porn is easy said than done and if i made a reference to masterbation, that too lol. Porn is so easy accessible its shocking to say the least. As to your question, no but seeing fit women and going through a list of things you'd do to her in your mind but not showing any signs what your mind is going through, thats a problem.

I used to have a clean mind, now its a struggle to go back to that state.
