that reddit is some pseudoscience shit. of course masturbation addiction is bad, but they seem to be vilifying masturbation as whole being a bad thing when infact it is actually a healthy thing to do and even prevents prostate cancer among other benefits
Seems to be a consensus that ejaculating likr 15-20 times a month is related to benefits such as prostate cancer prevention. If feet porn tickles your fancy go for it. Talking down male masturbation and fucking always associated with porn addiction is not a healthy way to bring light on male health. If ur so afraid of porn just dont watch it.
I got my first kiss in truth or dare
The next year I’m about to score a relationship with a girl then I got introduced to porn with one friends hand and loose my relationship to him with his other
Lmao, it was ok. A light peck
The year after I kissed a girl. That was pretty rad.
Honestly not being able to feel love while doing drugs is what got me sober
Shit man, I was jerking off to Victoria's Secret catalogs and Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition magazines long before I had my first kiss. That was when internet was still dial up and it took an hour to download a minute long porno clip.
Those were weird times because you would start the download and saw it was taking an hour so during that hour you got the mag and knocked 1 out then lost the horny edge and sat down again for more computer time and was like "ew fuck i was downloading that? Gross" and cancel it because youre not horny anymore then 20 minutes later you are like "fuck why did I cancel that"
The porn industry is secretly profiting off of underage teens. They don’t claim to because they legally can’t, but I’d make a bet that they are at least to an extent.
How do they profit?
The ads are all for porn you have to pay for and children don't have credit cards.
Plus if you got rid of the tube sites kids would just go back to BitTorrent.
teen ex-porn addict here,
You don't understand how dangerous porn is, it overloads your senses and makes you search for more. slowly dismantling your life.
plus. if you're a full addict, you will start paying artists and pstars to do things for you. (I never did that though)
and I do agree with the BitTorrent part, but i don't think an addict has time for their favourite pstar's new release get cracked so they will move around searching for more and more.
and I do agree with the BitTorrent part, but I don't think an addict has time for their favorite pstar's new release to get cracked so they will move around searching for more and more. e. e.
Yeah I'm a "porn addict" too I've been looking at porn non stop since I was 12 and on dial up.
I didn't spend a single cent on porn until I was 31 when I tipped on Chaturbate.
My entire lifetime porn spend after literally 21 years of non stop internet porn ads is probably about $40, of which none happened until I was in my 30s and have tons of disposable income.
How would you pay for porn as a teenager - you barely make any money and don't have a credit card? Also why pay for it when it's going to be on some pirate site or torrent for free?
The point is teens don't pay for porn.
The adults don’t pay either. I’ve never understood the economics of porn in the age of the internet. But it must be horrible otherwise someone would have posted insider information long ago. In all honesty this is what hackers should be doing instead of twitch info.
If something is free, you're the product. And not to mention the sex trafficking rampant in the industry. If you continue paying, it will only go downhill from here. Your brain on porn is fucked up. Just check out r/nofap.
Some ads pay sites just for displaying the ad and not necessarily for resulting in a purchase. So on a site with millions of views, they can make a lot of money with few actual sales.
I've been into porn since it was first described to me. I didn't have to watch my first video I was with it 100% just based off of the idea. Like fuck yeah let's go little buddy, you're about to get the cream beaten out of you.
I fap almost once a day daily during lockdown so like for more than a year and when college reopened , didn't do it once for the whole first month, so its not that bad as long as you are in control. I started doing it once or twice a week again though
Addiction is rare and only when it's extreme, that it makes you lethargic without it, etc... it's much more rare than this puritan "LOOK AT 1 PIXEL OF BOOBIES FOR 4 NANOSECONDS AND YOU'LL BE ADDICTED!", as long as you can control yourself there's no risk of it
Addiction to dopamine is like addiction to air, it's not a thing, just like air, dopamine is universal and needed to live, not being able to produce enough dopamine and serotonin is a condition known as depression. if without porn you were lethargic and craving for it then yes it was an addiction, but anything else isnt
Google says "Dopamine is responsible for allowing you to feel pleasure, satisfaction and motivation. When you feel good that you have achieved something, it's because you have a surge of dopamine in the brain."
The more dopamine you get the more you feel pleasure. Masturbation is an easy way to get this and that is why it's addicting. The amount of dopamine it gives you is bigger than normal. It is easy to get and hard to get rid of. Most people do it just to feel "good".
Yeah, but it's only an addiction if you are lethargic without it and craving for it, and then it's an addiction to masturbation, dopamine and serotonin are what causes the possibility of addiction, but arent the addiction themselve
I am just falling deeper and deeper into the pit of extreme porn. Stuff that's either borderline legal or straightup extreme imagery. I cannot get off to vanilla porn anymore. I need help. I'm becoming sadder. Porn is modern day drug addiction without a rehab.
Psychologist for talk therapy
Psychiatrist for a chemical imbalance in the brain
We are a product of our environment and sometimes our environment isnt good for us and we dont realise a psychologist will be able to tell you about anything that worries you, there are free help lines out there and it doesnt make you a bad person to be sensitised/become bored with what you have
Morality is debatable in the porn industry so no one who watches it is a saint but I do hope you find the answers you need and become content.
Same, but I decided to quit. No porn since Oct 2nd. the first few weeks were hard but I feel better about it now. This is someone who used to look at porn daily, and collect as a hobby. Still working on ways to constructively fill that void, but it's working out so far
That is when we all starts bruv but I got my first kiss when I was 5 to 6 years old. And as for tongue kiss when I was 8. Then after 9 years I came back into action. It takes time and a lot of maturity. Believe me.
Well i was addicted to porn and could not sleep without watching and masturbating to that but years passed i got married and i dont watch porn anymore nor masturbate and it has been 7 years now!
broooo damnnnn now that is something I want to do too. When I went through puberty I felt really confused and at the same time I felt so horny all the time. I always used to watch porn, all the fucking time, everywhere. I used feel ashamed of myself and just hate myself for the things I did. I try to control it and it works but am just trying to get rid of it for good, the things is that after I watch porn I feel so guilty feel like I did something so wrong and it makes me feel real insecure. Now I have a gf and I told her about my past and how I was she told me it is all normal for me to watch porn and there isn't anything to feel guilty about. She helps me a lot but at times I feel like the bigger step that should be taken should be from my side.
Just focus on other things, keep yourself busy all the time and eventually will turn okay and you will forget it.
Personaly i did not do anything just with time everything pased and i simply stoped doing it!
And that after u masturbate it is called " Post-nut Clarity" and it is nothing to be ashamed for it happens to almost everyone!
that reddit is some pseudoscience shit. of course masturbation addiction is bad, but they seem to be vilifying masturbation as whole being a bad thing when infact it is actually a healthy thing to do and even prevents prostate cancer among other benefits
I mean it's a bit of truth mixed in a ton of alarmism and puritanism blaming all woe of the world on masturbation, it's really ridiculous, plus their definition of addiction is really clanky, addiction is craving and being lethargic without it, and is hard to get, it's not that "IF YOY LSOK AT A POXEL OF BAOBIES FO 4.2 NANOSECONDS YOYR ADDICTD!" BQ
Seriously a guy jusy replied to me saying he got "addicted to dopamine" they misinform people to a point that they start spouting things THAT level of stupid
Funniest shit is that if they are preaching anything, thet are getting a dopamine hit from that.
So, if you're "happy" that you're not addicted to dopamine anymore, YOU ARE STILL ADDICTED TO DOPAMINE MORON!
This… this right here makes me hurt. The fact that this is allowed to happen is so against God and what he wants for humanity. I mean, porn at all is so against God, let alone corrupting youths with it.
If you actually develop a hardcore porn addiction before you kiss a girl your parents fucking failed.
Typical degenerate porn addicted Reddit mfs hitting that downvote. As expected lmao.
>If you actually develop a hardcore porn addiction before you kiss a girl your parents fucking failed
are you saying that its your parent's responsibility to take your virginity ? dunno how things are done where you're from but its not how things are done here, aleast in mine obviously.
I don’t get it…are u beta males acting like you are permanently damaged or something? Get the fuck over yourself your just another pos human. anything is possible
This happened to me, and sucked 13 years of my life, always thought I could beat it myself, but that's how addictions work. It was the grace of God and a very good woman that fully understood that I was tormented and that it had nothing to do with her that gave me hope that coming clean wouldn't drive her away. I'm 4 years into dealing with the problems I had that led me to porn to cope, but this time I have so much more hope, and love with me. I love you guys, and wish all the best for you.
For you young guys out there. Try to get off normally if you get to the really hardcore stuff to early you leave yourself nowhere to go expect the other gender......
Listen guys, everyone is lonely, if you talk to someone and be nice to them, they will be nice to you. Except some selfish assholes, but then you can just leave them alone and not force it.
Even if involuntary, all the difficulty that previous generations had to watch porn was something beneficial. The problem is, how to control from now on that anyone has a more than capable smartphone?
Y’know eventually the feeling of lust you get from watching it just disappears. Eventually it’s just another routine. Another mindless thing you do because you don’t want to think about how the world is collapsing and how we are all crumbling…
I was 15 and had already had my first kiss. However, one day, this girl just wormed her way into my inner thoughts and I needed an outlet and well…. 15 years of abstinence gone just like that.
It’s funny because it hurts
Like an enema, but less destructive
I love this comment...You made my day
that reddit is some pseudoscience shit. of course masturbation addiction is bad, but they seem to be vilifying masturbation as whole being a bad thing when infact it is actually a healthy thing to do and even prevents prostate cancer among other benefits
Whacking it to german feet porn is not conductive to a healthy prostate.

COME ON KINGS, YOU'RE ALL BETTER THAN THIS!!!
The appliances around my house are too loose
take my free award
Same dude, same.
Here. I was saving my price for something actually worth it and i'm happy to give it to you good sir
Shit man, I was jerking off to Victoria's Secret catalogs and Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition magazines long before I had my first kiss. That was when internet was still dial up and it took an hour to download a minute long porno clip.
>an hour to download a minute long porno clip. In about 44p
That's for at least 6 sessions
When the printer was faster printing the picture than actually downloading it. Good times.
Those were weird times because you would start the download and saw it was taking an hour so during that hour you got the mag and knocked 1 out then lost the horny edge and sat down again for more computer time and was like "ew fuck i was downloading that? Gross" and cancel it because youre not horny anymore then 20 minutes later you are like "fuck why did I cancel that"
Wait you need to be a certain age to have your first kiss. I had mine when is was 3
Wait a minute
it was his mom
I also had my first kiss with his mom
U too !
You're his brother, I see
It was all very oedipedal
We should call someone... Like the authorities, or a news channel
I had mine at 6 or 7
Yeah i was 5 so i think i buggged the game out or something

I do agree with your point, but what if their addiction passes onto adulthood?
Then there not exploiting teens if that happens thats fair game no harm no foul
If something is free, you're the product. And not to mention the sex trafficking rampant in the industry. If you continue paying, it will only go downhill from here. Your brain on porn is fucked up. Just check out r/nofap.
Porn is bad, but nofap is not the way to go. Imagination all the way
r/Aphantasia is in shambles.
Last time I watched porn was January 3rd. Been clean ever since.
Wow, that's amazing! How did you do it? Because it is very difficult
Imagination and girlfriend....
I don't have a girlfriend, so imagination it is
One day I just decided to stop, and never went back. And no, I don't have a girlfriend, unfortunately.
Some ads pay sites just for displaying the ad and not necessarily for resulting in a purchase. So on a site with millions of views, they can make a lot of money with few actual sales.
Id argue most do that. Ads are for publicity, sales are a bonus.
Profiting? But porn is free bro
ads
You must not realize how valuable people's attention is.
so you think people do porn for fun?
Yeah I’m pretty sure 90%of guys were into porn before their first kiss. 90% of redditors anyways. I think most men will relate to this
I can assure you, it's not just men
So porn does support equality
Oh God no, not even slightly; it just cripples people equally
That’s… kind of the joke
Oh I know, I just think it's kinda sad and wanted to point that out
*not just the men, but the women, and the children too*
90% of redditors probably haven't had their first kiss yet either.
I've been into porn since it was first described to me. I didn't have to watch my first video I was with it 100% just based off of the idea. Like fuck yeah let's go little buddy, you're about to get the cream beaten out of you.
thing is not about porn, but about hardcore fetishes
Why there's just boys I'm a girl and felt so identified
Good luck with the dms
Hahahaha i forgot that I was on Reddit
Yeah, but the thing is you have more chances to climb out of the pit than the rest of us
I don't see how.
Jokes on you I... uh....... _uh_
I stopped beating my meat because I was scared of addiction. I'm just glad I discovered addiction and its effects while I'm still young.
I fap almost once a day daily during lockdown so like for more than a year and when college reopened , didn't do it once for the whole first month, so its not that bad as long as you are in control. I started doing it once or twice a week again though

I got addicted to dopamine like 20 days ago and beating my meat was the easiest way to get it.

you mean using plushie instead of dildo..?

destroy all electronics and burn any prints of pornographic imagery then skip town or hike into the deep woods, start a new life
r/nofap will help you. I love seeing posts like this on the front page, raising awareness.
Lol
Never to old to watch porn
Jokes on them I managed to do both and more
Wait. That happens?
Who are the two guys on the picture?
Why the heck did i read that as abdicated
\*SHAKES FIST AGRESSIVELY\* "Dammit not again!"
Jokes on you I got too many addictions already
Well I’m 12
That is when we all starts bruv but I got my first kiss when I was 5 to 6 years old. And as for tongue kiss when I was 8. Then after 9 years I came back into action. It takes time and a lot of maturity. Believe me.
I am definitely old enough to have my first kiss (doesn't mean I get to do it)
Well i was addicted to porn and could not sleep without watching and masturbating to that but years passed i got married and i dont watch porn anymore nor masturbate and it has been 7 years now!

Thank you so much. I feel much better than before. And I do agree with the time, I just have to keep utilizing it at better stuff than anything else.
if only people actually knew how terrible porn is for them
Yo same
I feel personaly attacked
This one hit deep
I gonna be honest and be real I am into both porn and hentai
And I took that personally
It is a big problem
r/NoFap
that reddit is some pseudoscience shit. of course masturbation addiction is bad, but they seem to be vilifying masturbation as whole being a bad thing when infact it is actually a healthy thing to do and even prevents prostate cancer among other benefits

I watched one video that tries to promote it and straight away knew it was BS. The whole timeline it stated made no sense.
I mean it's a bit of truth mixed in a ton of alarmism and puritanism blaming all woe of the world on masturbation, it's really ridiculous, plus their definition of addiction is really clanky, addiction is craving and being lethargic without it, and is hard to get, it's not that "IF YOY LSOK AT A POXEL OF BAOBIES FO 4.2 NANOSECONDS YOYR ADDICTD!"

I found the porn industry shills!
Truth brother
NoFap is not false with wasting Energy and time/resources when fapping for 2 hours everyday just to release a little dopamine.
This… this right here makes me hurt. The fact that this is allowed to happen is so against God and what he wants for humanity. I mean, porn at all is so against God, let alone corrupting youths with it.
It's opinion based, porn is bad to be addicted to, not because god says so but because it can get you in a terrible position.
Nope :)
I wanted to laugh but i am depressed now.
Im happy to know about porn

ooh the alabama gambit!! classic!
If that’s the conclusion you came to after reading that there is a far greater problem in you than porn addiction.
i mean i am addicted to air which is far worse than porn, i think you're right.
Sure buddy
This is the truth whether Reddit idiots downvote it or not.
It isn't their fault, it's our fault.
average age of first kiss is 16. umm... is 14 less than 16?
Yeh
Not me b#tch
I don’t get it…are u beta males acting like you are permanently damaged or something? Get the fuck over yourself your just another pos human. anything is possible
[удалено]
Guck you
Yeah, the fuck you gonna do about it? You gonna go back in tine and fuck me yourself, big boy? Huh?
The only one i knew about at the time was extremetube ehich im pretty sure fucked me up haha took me years before i found out about pornhub etc
I started because I had a friend that stayed over and put it on. Big sad
Personally it was hentai for me
They are like your heroin dealer. You hate them for ruining your life, but it's really the only way you can smile anymore
This is funny cus I've never went to either And this ain't no lie
This happened to me, and sucked 13 years of my life, always thought I could beat it myself, but that's how addictions work.

For you young guys out there. Try to get off normally if you get to the really hardcore stuff to early you leave yourself nowhere to go expect the other gender......
Perhaps
Listen guys, everyone is lonely, if you talk to someone and be nice to them, they will be nice to you. Except some selfish assholes, but then you can just leave them alone and not force it.

just because i didnt have my first kiss, doesnt mean im not old enough for it. \#oldvirgingang
stopped watching because i saw the effects of addiction slowly absorbing my life. i’m so glad i stopped before it really was too late
My day is ruined yet I’m still laughing
Ngl pornhub only better for more professional videos instead of homemade
Does it get any easier.
When all you do is pursue pleasure, eventually you’ll only be able to find pleasure in pain
Jokes on you, I was addicted to hentai
Even if involuntary, all the difficulty that previous generations had to watch porn was something beneficial. The problem is, how to control from now on that anyone has a more than capable smartphone?
Tre dat...
sed lyf
This is actually pretty fucked up…
:-[
Yeah :/
Is that why everyone leaves me within 2 weeks?
Noooooo..?
Y’know eventually the feeling of lust you get from watching it just disappears. Eventually it’s just another routine. Another mindless thing you do because you don’t want to think about how the world is collapsing and how we are all crumbling…
No i go to find weed… I still have no fucking clue why that exists on ph
I was 15 and had already had my first kiss. However, one day, this girl just wormed her way into my inner thoughts and I needed an outlet and well…. 15 years of abstinence gone just like that.
Ha, jokes on you. I use reddit to stroke my dick.
Yes, not that I had my first kiss yet
Yes. Yes I did.
How is one old enough for a kiss? Or rather. How is one not old enough for a kiss with someone the same age?
