10 Reasons Why You Should Quit Watching Porn by DANO1011(m): 6:45am On Apr 18, 2016
With the ubiquity and easy access to porn these days, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that people are beginning to study the effects of it on our sex lives. According to a website called
projectknow.com , 420 million web pages are dedicated to porn, meaning the non-porn Internet roughly consists of..well, Wikipedia. Scientists at Cambridge University recently studied the brain scans of porn addicts and found that they looked exactly like those of drug addicts. With such an inexhaustible supply of porn at our disposal, there is a growing concern that it is beginning to affect our brains, our relationships, and even our bodies (beyond, of course, your mother’s idle threats of blindness and hairy palms). A recent survey of a Reddit community called NoFap , which is committed to abstaining from porn and masturbation, has helped researchers open the door to a better understanding of the effects of pornography on our lives. While the results are not entirely conclusive, there are certainly some statistics that should give a moment’s pause. Here are some of the reasons why it may be a good idea to stick to Netflix next time you open up your laptop:


1- For those addicted to porn, arousal actually declined with the same mate. Those who regularly found different mates were able to continue their arousal. It’s known as the Coolidge Effect, or a tendency toward novelty-seeking behavior. Porn, after all, trains the viewer to expect constant newness.

2- One in five people who regularly watch porn admitted to feeling controlled by their own sexual desires.

3 - 12 percent of NoFappers report watching five or more hours of Internet porn every week. 59 percent report watching between four and fifteen (!!) hours of porn every week.

4- Almost 50 percent of those on NoFap have never had sex in their lives, meaning their only experience with intimacy is purely digital.

5 - 42 percent of male college students report visiting porn sites regularly.
6 53 percent of the NoFappers had developed a regular porn habit between the ages of 12 and 14. An alarming 16 percent said they started watching before they were 12.

7- 64 percent report that their tastes in porn have become more extreme or deviant.

8 - Among 27- to 31-year-olds on NoFap: 19 percent suffer from premature ejaculation, 25 percent are disinterested in sex with their partner, 31 percent have difficulty reaching orgasm, and 34 percent experience erectile dysfunction.


9- After committing to no masturbation/porn, 60 percent of those on NoFap felt that their sexual functions had improved.


10- And 67 percent had an increase in energy levels as well as productivity.
So there it is, men. While the evidence may not be scientifically thorough, there’s certainly enough to suggest that porn has a negative impact on our lives. It might be a good time to give that overworked hand some rest, or, at the very least, use it to dial the phone number of a real live human woman and ask her out on a date.

the effects of porn and masturbation can never be over emphasizes and as a matter of fact, the amount of times it's been recycled shouldnt stop it from getting to front page anytime it is posted till it sinks into the brains of young and old lads alike.

...And on that note I implore Lalasticlala and oga seun to take action on this thread.

There is nothing wrong in porn. I don't know where all these statistics and % are coming from. Porn helps alot of people improve their sex lives.

try abstaining from it, you will find out how addictive it is. And you think porn helps in improving a 12 year old sex lives??

You only abstain from something that is bad which is dangerous to your health in one way. Why should I abstain from something I enjoy? Besides as much as I watch porn I'm not addicted.

And regarding 12 year old, when the 12 year old grows older, sex would be easy. When my little bro first had sex, his lady never believed he was virgin. #Thanks to Porn

So yes, it improves it. Even a lot of married couples watch it. Some marriage therapy sessions encourage it for couples so they learn new things.

good!
But do you know 90% of people who watch porn masturbates?
have you tried to find out the negative health effect of masturbation to MEN??
Is it a good thing for a child to get exposed to dirty tricks use by pornographers e.g three-some, gang sex, negative words, and even dirty title like ( I f*ck my friends mom)?

Yes they masturbate. Masturbation is not a bad thing now is it? What are the negative effects? I know men who masturbate alot and they are perfectly ok.

And this is not a case about morals or what a child should watch. This is about porn itself and 7 reasons why we should stop watching it. Don't change the subject.
