What are the problems with porn and porn addiction?
Escalation
The biggest and most apparent problem with porn addiction. What happens with vanilla porn just doesn't get Timmy to the finish line? Degenerate porn is a slippery slope that may end in not only you being a scatfag/vorefag/furfag but also may lead to illegal content and acts. If you are going to watch porn, by God, keep it vanilla.
Decreased Intimacy
This is the number one reason couples split over porn. It's not because one person objects to porn so much they break it off. Rather, it's their partner can't get intimate anymore because porn twisted their view of sex. Porn-induced erectile dysfunction (PIED) is real.
Compulsions
Meaning you're consuming it when you shouldn't be. Like, watching porn a work or watching porn instead of getting important things done.
Guilt
Look man, I never felt guilty about watching porn. If you do, you can go on some cope escapade but deep down you'll likely always feel guilty about it. Just stop or severely limit it.
Body Image/Isolation/Ethics/Objectifying or Degrading Women/Testosterone/Motivation Issues
Maybe other kiwis can speak to these.
Is porn always evil?
If you're religious yes but then so is Kiwi Farms, probably. Science says masturbation is healthy and normal. So If you can masturbate without porn or consume porn without the above mentioned side effects maybe it's no big deal.
Do you know someone or seen someone who suffer(s/ed) with consequences of porn addiction? Please share! It can offer insight to the often hidden problems of being a porn addict.
