Poll of the Day > Are you addicted to pornography?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Its no secret that porn addiction has become a pretty massive epidemic in the modern world. Pretty much every guy you've ever met, and a decent number of the girls are all watching more than once a day.
Giving people portable porn with smart phones made it more available than ever.
It creates a pretty unrealistic standard for men and women, its associated with a whole plethora of physical and mental health issues, and it is everywhere.

But still you will find others who will try to say how healthy it is to "beat it" three, four or five times a day.

I never REALLY got into the stuff myself. We tried checking out a hentai back in college but it was more comedic for me than arousing so thankfully I never really went further.

Surprising results thus far.

Congrats to the fine people of potd for either beating the international average, or lying to themselves.

arv voted yes to restore order in POTlanD

lol potland

I prefer erotica.

Are you addicted to pornography?

Yes

Do you watch a lot of other people bumping uglies?

No, prefer solo, so had to vote no in the poll.

Possibly. But I'm not multiple times a day or even every day.

While I certainly have an appreciation for the cultural arts, I do understand that real life rarely works the same way.

Yeah, porn is pretty awesome. I watch a lot of solo stuff, like models and stuff. A lot of times, the ladies will be in outfits. I told my lady the other day we should get her a micro bikini...I digress. I'm getting a vasectomy, so I'm hoping i can resist watching it a couple days.

Nah

Do I like it? Yeah Addicted? No That said, these days, been reading a lot Mainly books that have some good sex scenes in it they are enjoyable I also have books that probably dont have sexy scenes in it I have a book list thats way too long

No more so than I'm addicted to other things I enjoy, which is to say that I won't pretend I've never let it get in the way of doing something else I should have been doing, but that in the grand scheme of things I don't believe it's particularly harmed my life.

So you went with "I can quit whenever I want"

I can't get enough of it.

No. I put no since Im not addicted

Personally, Its honestly easier to just take care of myself than it is to deal with most of these dudes out there so its no surprise other people slip into addiction

What blows my mind is the proportion of addicts in denial of this particular addiction

Most drug users will tell you flat out they are addicted, but porn addicts will justify a thousand ways. They'll tell you "yeah, I like it and I watch it every day, and I get this nagging feeling in the back of my head when I don't, but I'm not addicted, I swear!"

It also comes down to what you consider an addiction, as well To say someone who just uses something is an addict would also be wrong Usually, theres a definition of what makes someone an addict of something

Only the videos starring your mom

Only hentai, which is the marijuana of pornography. There are lots of medicinal benefits.

You sure? I mean, you could actually be one of the dudes in those videos you enjoy, or getting with one of the ladies. I'm betting one of those would make you happier.

Course, it's never going to happen if you're too busy watching porn.

A lot of those guys, it's a job for them. Some need shots in their penis, you're constantly getting tested for diseases, you're typically banging like 5+ guys before you get one chick, etc.
It seems like a good industry as a horny teen, but once I looked into it, a lot of glamor disappeared. Instead, my fiance and i have discussed making our own adult films one day for bonus cash.

The pay is also shit for guys. Like you would make more money working in retail.

Yeah. Porn isnt a good place to work just to get sex

That said, watching porn doesnt stop you from getting sex, either

I'm not. I watch porn maybe once a month.

I mean, amateur porn is a burgeoning industry, and people are pretty addicted to that too. You can make your own way.

No, but it does stop you from being a Sex-God which is what a lot of the people who watch this stuff really wish they were, but will never be because they watch this stuff.

Sunny?

I mean, I watch some nasty stuff that I would never want to do in real life. Porn is more of a power fantasy than an actual wish, like playing a video game or watching an 80's action movie.

I'm pretty sure sunny is at least pro-weed

How so? How does watching any porn stop you from being a sex god? Or are you talking out of your ass?

you seem awful defensive about this for someone who isn't addicted

Im not defending porn. Though, porn isnt bad. But you like to say stuff without any proof Like the other topic If you believe what you said, wheres your proof Or even if you dont have proof, whats your reasoning? And please, try not to dodge the question this time

from the king question dodger lol

Thing is, telling people what watching an excessive amount of porn is presently doing to their bodies and brains is 100% going to be moddable on this place. So I guess this is me cosplaying as you, and dodging the question.

Its okay though, porn isnt bad and youre for sure not addicted, so why does it matter what I know about what it is doing to you?

Ah, the classic "I totally have a point, but I can't make it without getting modded, so you're just going to have to trust me." Some things never go out of style.

Come on, y'all. We gotta take everything he says at face value without question. If you ask for any sort of explanation that means you're a porn addict.

I haven't even really said much. Y'all have put a lot of words in my mouth though. Almost like you're super defensive about it for some reason.

Except I dont dodge question. Cosplaying as me would require you answering the question with ellipses, of course Because, unlike you, I dont dodge questions Unless you can tell me a question I disagree from you Can you? Or will you just dodge that question, as well

Porn isnt bad, though In one country, it actually helped to lower the sex crime rate And if used in moderation, its ok And I already told you Im not addicted. Do you have some reason to think I am Because, like everything you say, you can never give a reason or anything You just keep talking out of your ass I watch it. I read it. But not everyday. Nor do I need it. It like a treat. I can use it if I want to, though Again, everything in moderation. Most of time is spent sleeping, playing video games, D&D, YouTube/other streaming services, and working

Calling us defensive for calling you out Thats another sign of just talking out of your ass When you have no proof, you just say theyre defensive

once again, you put me in a position where in order to refute you I have to "insult" you and risk moderation, but you act like you said something meaningful.

yall know full well how sensitive this place is lately, and I'm not sitting on half a dozen alts.

guess you'll just have to live happy with the knowledge that you're all TOTALLY not addicted, and you've just all been in here defending your very healthy.... habits?

What a weird conversation

What have I defended?

Say literally anything other than "you're defensive" or "porn makes you terrible."

Why would you have to insult me? If to prove something, you have to insult someone, then somethjng is wrong with you Especially since Im not addicted to porn. Thats just some fantasy you made up in your head And your proof shouldnt be moddable. If your proof somehow risk moderation, then there is something wrong with your proof And Im not saying Im saying anything meaningful. Im just saying every word you type on this site is BS that you cant even backup

This site is sensitive, but proof shouldnt be moddable Even if it was, theres always the sex board (which is very lenient in most cases) or PMs if you really believe what youre saying, and have actual reasons rather than made up insults

Again, you dont really know any of us. Just like everything else, you just made up some fantasy in your head about us. And for some reason, you fantasize that were all addicted to porn Even though you know barely anything about us And again, just because were calling you out doesnt mean were defending it. Were just calling out your BS that you conveniently seem to have no way to prove

Are people actually denying that porn has caused serious social issues regarding sex and sexuality?

I guess it's not surprising since this board is mostly male dominated but as a cisgender heterosexual woman that has sex with cisgender heterosexual men porn had rotted a lot of their brains into believing all women need to be fucking pounded as hard and fast as possible for it to feel nice.

If youre addicted, sure But just watching it sometimes is fine In moderation People just have to learn to separate fantasy and reality Like with video games, tv, and books

Serious question springing from this statement

Do you actually believe the mods here are any sort of moral authority?

It's not comparable to those other forms of media lol. Sex and reading are completely different.
