Erection Problems: Why Watching Too Much Porn Is Harmful?
Studies have shown a link between time spent watching pornography and erectile dysfunction. According to surveys, 23% of males under the age of 35 who were addicted to porn videos had problems having sex with a partner. Oh, shit.
Scientists have concluded that watching porn affects men’s potency not only in middle age but also in the younger guys. Young people who are addicted to watching porn can be completely hopeless in bed. And we are talking about the age of up to 30 years!
An Experiment We All Missed or Details You’d Rather Not Know
Maybe watching porn indicates dissatisfaction with regular boring sex with a partner or even lack of it. Only 65% of the respondents answered that live sex with a partner attracts them more than watching their favorite porn. All research data were presented at the EAU Virtual Congress.
Since 2007, porn has become more and more popular thanks to the development of Internet technologies. However, scientists haven’t been able to say how exactly the increasing number of porn fans affects impotence.
However, on June 16 at the Annual Urological Congress in Belgium, which this year ran online due to the coronavirus pandemic. They still proved that the relationship between watching sex online and male power has been found. The creators of the project developed an online questionnaire that consisted of 118 questions. The online survey was advertised in Belgium and Denmark among males on posters, social networks, and leaflets. During this time, more than three thousand men passed it. Of course, the topic is fucking hot. All respondents who participated in the study had regular sex for 28 days. The questionnaire included questions related to sexual health, experience, as well as the level of erection and other significant indicators of male strength… Also, the participants were asked standard questions for the validation and veracity of the answers. They were also asked about their favorite porn.
An international group of researchers concluded that the most ordinary sex is not only as good as porn and masturbation but also many times more beneficial to health.
Also, addiction to porn can cause misunderstandings with a partner and various psychological problems. The more a guy watches porn, the more difficult it becomes for him to get aroused with a real girl during sex.
One of the organizers of the study, Gunter de Vin, a professor from the University of Antwerp and the University Hospital of Antwerp commented on the findings. So, most of the surveyed people watched adult videos for about 70 minutes a week. At the same time, they devoted up to 15 minutes a day watching sex online. Some of the men said that they searched for porn every day, while others did it only from time to time.
At the same time, 1/5 of men experience problems in sex. Oh, it’s even worse than porn, yeah? Professor Gunter de Vin calls the results unexpected. According to preliminary calculations, the statistics were not so stunning…
“We noticed a great connection between the time spent on watching porn and the increase in problems with potency during sex. Men who spend most of their time watching sex scenes got similarly high scores in the porn addiction column,” said de Vin.
Are Girls Not as Good as Porn?
Okay, this is just some numbers and not a full-fledged clinical study across the country or around the world. Of course, not all men are represented here, not all possible cases! However, the purpose of this experiment was to establish the existence of a link between time spent watching porn and erectile dysfunction. And it can be seen on such a fairly large number of respondents.
The research team noticed an interesting moment! Nine out of ten participants try to rewind the porn video to the most exciting hot scenes. De Vin confirms that porn certainly defines the attitude towards sex for many men.
In his survey, he noticed that only a little bit more than half of the participants in the experiment found sex with a living person more enjoyable. There were also 20% of men who were looking for thrills and could no longer get the same level of dopamine.
The study sparked debate in the scientific community. Thus, the Belgian professor Maarten Albersen calls it not reliable, although he recognizes the interest in the information received. Moreover, the sample included mostly young guys from social networks rather than people of different ages and views. This could lead to non-representativeness. There is a risk that the sample will include people who use more porn content on the networks. Overall, the study can provide a picture of how porn use can lead to erectile dysfunction, sexual problems, difficulty in satisfying during sex, and self-doubt.
Approximately 30 million men worldwide, partially or completely, don’t have an erection during sex and are unable to enjoy sex… Poor men.
Don’t Be Afraid of Getting Older
A stressful event, distress, or trauma can be a risk factor. However, the most important indicator is fucking age!
According to the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine, at the age of 60, about 60% of men have weak erection. This number only grows with age, when other health problems appear, that alter blood flow, and therefore affect sexual performance.
However, watching a lot of porn linked to worse erectile function in young men. This makes the older generation equal to the younger in this matter.
Scientists explain this. They believe that the loss of libido in men under 30 is caused by the continuous overstimulation of the release of the hormone dopamine, which is responsible in the body for pleasure, including the sexual one.
Another part of the researchers believes that porn can be an excellent tool for young people to get to know their bodies as much as possible, become more sexually literate, learn new tricks and techniques, and have more pleasure! For older people, Kamasutra or a porn site can help to refresh the sensations and stimulate gradually fading feelings, return youth, and a sense of life.
It Is Too Easy to Get Addicted tо Porn
But there is a new problem, many who watch sex online often open several tabs at the same time. Being engaged in an endless search for the “hottest” news, they chase adrenaline rushes into their blood. But this thrill soon begins to play against them. Taking part in online sex chats and trying to turn themselves on, each time their threshold of excitability grows. It’s like using drugs when you need to increase the dose to get high. This addiction soon becomes harmful. The use of chats with webcams doesn’t give real pleasure, but only consumes physical resources and ruins men’s health.
After that, these Internet sexting users become sex addicts. They need constant and very strong stimulation to have fun.
The results of such addiction are no less shocking. Almost everyone fond of watching sex online feels dissatisfaction during sex with a partner.
At the same time, according to social surveys, a significant number of men don’t believe that watching porn so strongly affects their potency and causes erectile dysfunction.
The author of the study, Robinson, says that many are beginning to convince themselves otherwise. They say that it is normal to have sexual dysfunction at the age of 20 as the modern world got it all.
Scientists say that you can solve the problem at this age if you completely stop viewing porn for at least one month giving your brain and body rest.
