This sounds like what is depicted in cyberpunk anime if y’all watched it

Yep but how i understand it, Is that people have always started from a young age and they just grew with it and they keep it besides them because its easier. I read a lot of stories of people not knowning its ruining their lives the whole time, Like missing school and so on, But thats not for all people ofcourse

Even if they don’t know it’s bad, it is and they choose to use it.

It’s not just porn,
Porn is just free and delivered to your bedroom.

It’s just the most convenient cope, there is a lack even without Porn.

Not using porn makes it easier to get a better life, it gives you back what you give it, but you’ll still have the original lack that pushed you it’s way

You remove porn they’ll focus on other problems of the ego.

People use porn and drugs cause their lives already sucked.

Give people a better life and almost everyone but the most addicted will automatically stop porn.

That’s what cope is, there was already stress and lack

Life was not perfect before porn was invented

Most people imagine no more porn + love and spirituality. Not just no porn

Indeed it is. The most convenient way of escaping from the harshness of reality and a short window of pleasure and indulgence of primal instinct that one has access to.

This.

In today’s age it starts with curious 8 to 10 year old boys, who get their first smartphones with internet access. Or someone at school shows them from their phones at the toilet.

Their prefrontal cortexes are not developed enough yet, so it is not really a free choice or even cope of a missing sexual life for them.

These are just children who are literally exposed to a superstimulating drug against which they have zero mental defenses.

They have no choice but to react and become addicted.

Until these boys have grown up into men with fully developed prefrontal cortexes, already 10 years of being exposed to the drug have passed.

Then, 10 year later, of course they have to take responsibility for their lives etc., but now they first need to overcome 10 years of destructive brain-rewiring, before they can even return to their normal natural state.

I have mentioned it in some other thread as well:

Even before smartphones and internet 9-10 yo were watching porn.

Everybody knew where daddy or uncle joe’s porn magazine or VHS was and would share.

We used to trade porn and log in a notebook who had what and send older kids buy porn magazines.
We’d put our money together and send the 13-14yo buy porn.

We’d know which “tabac shop” dude didn’t care after trying them all.

It used to be stashed in our bedrooms.

But that’s not the point, even with a full prefrontal cortex. It’s about coping with stress and lack.

Adults fall for porn, alcohol and drugs.
People who live in countries without porn discover it as adults and fall for it too.

It’s intriguing.

Humans fall for coping mechanisms, not just porn.

It’s worst when it starts from childhood but it works the same on adults.

People are not happy, out of the natural cycles and cope.

Technology only amplify the problem, there was some of this before and there will be more of it until we evolve or not. Natural selection will play

Either we restrict technology (but let’s be realistic) the problem will persist

It’s human nature + technology

Either you found out the porn stashed in the house on your own, either you had an older brother or your friend had a friend that had an older brother.
But once someone knew, everybody knew

But people would jerk of with porn in the 90’s early 2000 too. Don’t know about 1980s :man_shrugging:

It was just less convenient

Shit people would jerk off to lingerie magazines their mom would throw out in the trash.

Cut and make a collage in a notebook, scissor and glue

You see a movie, you see a lingerie add, it tickles in your pants and things will happen

The fucking TV guides had sexy pictures in the porn section every week. Every household had TV guides

Lol

People would jerk off thinking of their teachers, kids used to have better visualization skills before porn (I personally know)

We’d talk about which girl or teacher we’d jerk off on, porn or no porn. Every single day !

A brain is a brain, now people lost the ability to jerk off on mental movies. Old people knew how, they trained.

Less video games, more free time.
They jerked the same and came up with rape and deep throat stuff on their own.

Worst case scenario your mom found your porn and threw it out.
Big deal, it happened to everyone before teenage hood. Mothers would know about it.

Cost of doing business,

If you had an older brother who was 18. Jackpot, he would supply you and your friends.

Ask your mom for candy money, put it in the “bank” with your friends and buy a porn magazine.

Btw, since everybody was sharing in the school, plus older brothers would give their little brothers on top of the buying. We had collections.

Skip class, go home watch porn VHS 10 kids going in the bathroom or late at night on the living room TV with no or low sound when parents are sleeping.

It wasn’t free or easy, just saying, kids will find porn

In case some don’t remember when you are that age, you have a hard on all the time, your bed sheets turn into a tent, your pants bulge in classrooms and kids want to make it go away. You hide your boners everyday.

I think it’s because nowadays people don’t care as much, back when physical punishment was more common kids would hide themselves and be more conniving.

Cause kids would smoke cigarettes too, stolen from parents, found on the ground, in a restaurant’s ashtray. 2 half smoked made a full cigarette.

If you took a beating, you’d be smarter the next time. Must be harder when you stay home all day on the internet.m instead of roaming the streets.

Seriously, after midnight cable TV was full of porn, kids would tell each other the channel numbers.
Even the channel that showed dragon ball Z would show porn after 1 am

You could even give an empty VHS :vhs: tape to your friends with premium porn channels and he would turn on his TV all night, set the VHS to record everything, the ads, the TV show you didn’t want, the extra ads then record the porn for you. 10 bucks and it was looted out of the porn channels your friend’s uncle paid for.

So much porn and tricks before the internet.

Anyway, sorry for the long posts

Yes, of course.
And way, way before that.
There have been “girlie” magazines around for an extremely long time. Knowing humanity, probably since a little while after the printing press was invented.
Kids used to masturbate to the the Sears and Robucks catalog, the bra and panty section photos. Even the newspaper B&W photos of ads for bra and panties. The difference was, u needed to sneak it, so u didnt have such quick access most of the time. Now it is way more readily available.

Also before the internet was readily availalbe people actually had to go outside and DO things. U learned how to talk to people (including girls) so most peoples social skills were much better than today. (There have always been shy people and people with mental disorders, most undiagnosed and untreated) Most families had 2 parents and they usually had at least 2 children, so u needed to learn to get along with siblings. And your brother would invite his friends over, (and as a sister u did the same with your friends) so u would interact with them a little, before your brother made u leave them alone.

Kids and teenagers would “hang out” together in person, interact and figure out what to do. Go to the park and play basketball, play softball. Learn to flirt and learn to interact with the opposite sex. Younger kids would play street games, ride their bikes, etc. U had household chores that u had to do, even young kids would have them. It was considered part of being in a family. Some kids like myself had “official” part time jobs once they reached 14/15 and definately “official” full time summer jobs. (“Official” = reportable income to the government, $ for taxes and FICA taken out, FICA meaning social security) I would have to give part of that $ to my parents.

So back then, unless u had very serious mental problems, u were too busy doing things, living your life. U had less time to sit around by yourself and ruminate over your problems. I could go on and on, but I’ll stop here. BTW back then, things sucked too and there were serious problems. Its wasnt a utopia.

And “sneak” drink their parents alcohol.
And there was always a friends house where the parents didnt care too much about keeping track of the booze line on the bottle. If too far down u would dilute it or get an older kid to get really cheap booze of the same type to partially fill the bottle up.

Then later pot (and drugs) became more easily available, another thing to sneak. (Well there were drugs available before that, prescription drugs from your parents, kids would sneak to get high, (sleeping pills, pain relievers) Then u gotta remember not to put the (pot) roach in your pocket for your mother to find when she did the laundry. :sunglasses: Woops!

Porn perse is not the problem, it is the addiction towards which is the problem. Also addiction to porn is not a problem limited to men alone, it is a problem of the society. Changes in sexuality reflects the trends in the society. Porn didn’t destroy lives till a decade ago may be few exceptions but it is doing now, reasons below.

Women are becoming increasingly averse to relationships and guys after working at shitty jobs have to put additional effort to pick up a chick at a club, so porn is the quickest release. Both the genders are losing touch with the reality which is the wrong notion that things should fall into the lap or deliverd by amazon.

It is proven with experiments that people are disconnected which is causing these addictions in the first place. To stop porn or any other addiction from overpowering you is to form a connection with another human or even an animal and that is hard in this fast-paced existence.

Jordan Peterson on Joe Rogan’s podcast said porn contributed to the development of internet which may be very true because these technologies and how novelty in porn can hijack a brain so quickly must be the work of some astral entities who clearly want to get something done at the expense of humanity.

This is like saying “heroin is not the problem, the addiction to it is”.

:face_with_monocle:

As long as you as a human have a limbic system with its current genetic programming, porn will always trigger addictive behavior in your body. These two cannot be separated from each other.

Because it had not the same strong impact onto the limbic brain as with today’s technology.

Agree with @JAAJ

Porn was not the same in 360p VHS or magazine and really before POV.

I think that was the game changed, HD POV, you don’t see dude’s face anymore, zoomed in, no kinky music anymore it’s throat noises all the way.

Also, there are all the entities, you send your energies where you focus and you create thought formes, attachment and there are darker entities matching on to you.

Jaaj knows about porn’s effects

If I was able to get laid in real-life or find a woman to have sex with regularly, I wouldn’t feel the need to watch it because I’d be getting the real thing instead. Yeah, you could say it’s a form of cope but all it does really is fill the void in my sexless life only (not the other areas of my life).

This VR porn and automated sex doll future that JAAJ mentions is only going to be marketed at ugly men. So, statistically they’ll still be the same amount of sex going around in the future like the present day now because no man is going to pass up on the real thing for porn and sex dolls.

Generally speaking, I think most people’s lives would be better and happier if they didn’t have to work as much.

Which is the case but heroin is a bad example because it is made to get people hooked to it, but porn is a different thing. Porn you will get for free but do you get heroin for free? I wonder why. Now onlyfans is on the rise even normal women with decent jobs even dignified professions like nurses are making additional income through onlyfans, I’m surprised people actually pay for onlyfans, which shows novelty is the hijacking mechanism.
