Porn is predictable and full of fantasies, relationships and imagery that only could be lived out if you were starring in a porn film.
An Italian study showed that the more porn men watched, the less likely they were able to have an erection when they wanted to have sexual intercourse in real life. What does that mean for you? Long-term exposure to erotic images and films in the media increases the chances of you being unable to become excited by ordinary sexual encounters, researchers concluded.
Suffering from impotent is no longer an issue that only plagues older men or those with poor health, being hopeless in bed is also affecting young men in the prime of their lives, 20s and 30s.
Thanks to the free-reaching internet, available erotic pictures and videos can be accessible with simply a click on your mobile device or computer to stimulate peoples’ brains, which creates a pleasurable spike of dopamine in a porn-user’s brain.
Researchers described the dopamine spike as a ‘paradoxical effect’ whereby with each new stimulation, the brain loses its ability to respond to dopamine signals, resulting in porn-users requiring increasingly extreme experiences to become sexually aroused.
So what are the researchers really saying?
Pornography can be a source of sexual performance problems. Don’t say you haven’t been warned.
