And yes, one should be careful with porn, consuming it in a bad way can lead to harmful coping mechanisms or problems with sex; seek help if you feel that you’re not in control.
I don’t say this to upset anyone, but anyone who is upset will benefit greatly from curbing the tendency toward denial and honestly asking “Am I an addict?”
This seems a personal opinion and unhelpful. Others might say avoiding porn is pathetic; I think this topic should be discussed without name calling.
I like the comparison to alcohol. I don’t drink but I wouldn’t shame those who do (unless they have a compulsion or they drink to avoid problems).
No. Being a pathetic wanker who beats it to videos of things he lacks the agency to experience personally is in fact objectively shameful.
