Does it truly benefit the future of academic programs to consider the issue of porn without also discussing the many proven harmful effects?
According to credible research and personal accounts, let’s explore just a few of the many reasons why people are often motivated to give up porn for good.
In a sexual encounter, if a woman starts to think about the porn she’s watched, she may feel insecure about her performance. That’s when the enjoyment of the whole experience can be lessened.
The research is clear—porn is not a harmless pastime, especially when it’s hurting a romantic partner. It’s okay to not be okay with porn in your relationship.
Having this issue become a national conversation, highlighted by a publication as renowned as TIME, is a huge step forward for the movement.
“Everyone is looking at it but no one’s talking about it. A lot of people still think porn is ‘Playboy’ and it’s not.”
Any of these things or a combination of them could mean something entirely unrelated to porn, but here are six possible signs that porn may be affecting your relationship.
Despite what our porn-obsessed culture may tell you, choosing to reject porn entirely can actually help boost your dating success.
“I still have a sexual appetite. But I’m not sexually aroused and it’s not because he’s some ugly potato, it’s because of the lingering effects of watching so much extreme porn.”
Sex was always a very mechanical and unloving act. He always treated me like one of these girls that he saw on his computer… ‘Normal’ sex could never satisfy or even arouse him.
Because of reputable research, we can look past preconceived notions about if porn is “good” or “bad.” There are solid facts that can tell us a more clear answer, and as they stand, it isn’t good news for our porn-obsessed society.
Porn viewers can become so obsessed with chasing something that isn’t real that they miss out on relationships and building connections.
