im never watching porn again!

If I could have a dollar for every time I said this... $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

 

I personally enjoy porn very infrequently, but i can understand where you're coming from, its easy for things to get you disconnected from reality, for me, I have to keep myself from falling face first into a World of Warcraft addiction. everyone has a terrible vice i guess?

 

Porn is good!.. but I don't ee how it can damage your health.

 

It can create an unhealthy image of sex for you.

*still watches porn*

 

Well.. it does make me think you have to have a lean sexy body to do it.. lol

 

yeah, it really does promote a very bad model for a healthy body, let alone the way it furthers the stereotype that gay guys have to have perfect bodies and big dicks....

 

Eh... its a noble thing to do. But I think so long as you seperate your private porn and masturbation life from the rest of your life and mind you'll be fine. I'm of the mentality that I watch porn (and not actually that much) to get aroused, and nothing else. It doesn't really matter to me.

But I see where your coming from. Good luck with it.

 

recently stopped watching porn myself. Not completely but its almost non existent. That being said, it for me was right around the time i became more sexually active so i think i have my satisfaction elsewhere.

with you being only 16 i think it would be safe to assume that you arent very sexually active if at all, so maybe you just need a really time consuming hobby to fill that void.

 

I have quit before. It lasted about a year.

then i figured out how to incorporate it into my sex life =D

much fun ensued

 

Not, I'm not particularly sexually active. But like I said, I don't watch much porn, and not when I could be doing anything other that sleeping. I have better things to do.

 

As embarrassing as this is to admit, am I the only person who has never really experienced porn in the slightest?

 

That's not embarrassing!!

in fact, it's admirable =D

there are probably several universities in your area looking for people like you, you know.... At least one study has been attempted to compare people who have watched pornography to those who have not, and had to be abandoned when not enough people who had not been exposed could be found.

 

I commend you greatly. While I don’t think I’m an addict (I guess an addict would say that LOL) porn (and other simples forms of media like TV, movies, and even music) teach young people (like myself) inaccurate, unrealistic, and most of all, DANGEROUS ideas about sex. That is why I am a HUGE supporter of teaching young people sexual education in school. But I digress, I think it’s dangerous because as I like to put it take Usher’s song “I Wanna Make Love in ‘dis Club” or whatever- the song talks about being sexually attracted to a stranger (nothing wrong with that) but then just having random sex on the dancefloor. Huh?! Dude, does she have STIs or worse?

If a song they play on public radio is like that imagine porn. There must be a healthy counter to all the sex related media. Some their ideas on sex from watching porn if they don’t learn it in school- and that is so dangerous. Makes you pound the pizza boy without protection because you saw it in a movie so it must be safe. I know that is such a glib interpretation but STILL.

Long winded but...GOOD FOR YOU Scandinavian!

 

I'm not really sure how watching porn is keeping you from coming out. That sounds...pretty silly.

 

Oh, okay. That makes more sense. I hope things go well for you. Coming out is difficult, but you can do it!

 

You're probably as well. I watch it frequently enough, though it doesn't bother me if I get to that point in the night and I can't because my parents have already turned off the broadband switch. Usually about twenty minutes last thing before going to bed, so that I can masturbate as I fall asleep. And nothing too rough, I like videos that portray intimacy.

I have to wonder about the boys acting in it themselves though. About two weeks ago, my sister was giving out about porn in a conversation we were having about women's issues, about how men in general are about it, but said she didn't mean me, just heterosexual men. But the problems she has must be the same in the case of gay porn, boys who into it too young, to pay off debts, get caught in a rut. And then some who were forced into it or are underage and can pass for 18. I felt a little guilty for not informing her there was such a thing as gay porn, which I enjoy.

 

OMG, I love WoW.lol

On another news, mhh, on the porn giving mental issues... Masturbating was believed to make you go blind...lol It also makes some people feel guilty afterwards, is it because the act causes this... or because the person has mental distortions regarding the act and they think it is wrong and this makes them feel guilty?

Is there any psychological proof that it will damage your mental health?
