Opinions On Porn?

I am curious as to what everyone’s opinion is when it comes to porn. I use porn while pumping and have had great results because I am able to stay erect the entire time. I am starting to notice after a month of using it, I cannot get hard without it. Same with looking at beautiful women in front of me. It is odd. Seeing women naked is still arousing, just not fully clothed anymore. I have read some threads with conflicting information. Nothing has been written in stone as to if it is bad for our mental health or not.

Is using porn still worth it when it comes to PE?

There are many threads that parse all of the questions that you have. What’s your chief concern? That porn’s power goes away, yet you need it for PE?

Actually all the threads do not parse what I want to know. That’s why I made this one. Pornography’s power does not go away because it still gets me hard.

Everyone is different. If you can still get a roused by real women in person, it’s not an issue.

I wouldn’t be super concerned about not getting hard by looking at clothed women, unless you used to get hard immediately.

I watch porn but still get hard quickly when my girlfriend and I start making out, etc. I look at her or an attractive woman in the street and I get mentally aroused but not hard. For me, that’s fine

Porn is no different from any other stimulant. It can be a problem for some, even to the extent of being a disease. While for others, it’s a non-issue.

It can have negative physical effects and it can also consume one’s life, so yeah, it can be really bad.

If one finds that porn is causing negative consequences relative to their physical performance as well as how they spend their time, they should stop watching porn.

Stay away from it as much as you can. It takes more and more to get the same high.

I’ve got a pretty negative overall outlook on porn. That’s not to say that I don’t indulge in it from time to time, though. There’s not necessarily a lot inherently wrong with it, but if you use it as a crutch then you can come to rely on it, and that is dangerous. There’s no hard and fast rule about whether it’s positive or negative because everyone is different. The manner in which each person indulges is different, and the effects that it will have on each person are different.

If I understand what you’re describing, you did not have particular difficulty getting an erection before, though you found it easier to maintain the erection using porn. Now that you’ve become used to that, you have difficulty getting the erection without porn. If this is the case, then it’s a big red flag to me. I would stop using porn during your exercises, and work primarily with your imagination again until you can get and maintain your erection without resorting to visual aids. That’s just my take on it and you’re the only one that can really tell what’s going on in your head, so you’ve got to be the ultimate judge.

Recreational use is a whole other matter, though can carry some of the same potential dangers. Do you find that you are using porn outside of your routine frequently?

Just Google some no-fap doctrine. Those guys have done a ton of research. Porn induced erectile disfunction is heavily documented.

I had ED from porn from 18-22.
It was absolutely horrible. Besides, porn can induce or reinforce depressive thoughts.
Your best bet is to minimize it.
Cutting it out completely would not be possible for me personally, but if you only watch twice a week for 15 minutes each, it should not have negative side effect at all.

Since when was porn worth for PE?

Look, I get why people masturbate looking at porn, I did it myself, long, long years trying to stop it. I remember at 15 yo trying in the bathroom to get off without porn, I could get hard, but could not ejatulate, when I closed my eyes I couldn’t imagine, not a thing. Porn had killed my imagination. After years go by and I have learned more about my mind and my body, I am completely able to put my mind in a horny state, I am able to imaginate any situation or image that I like, I am able to even get erection in the gym, yep there some dick blood flowing action. This is all up to your mind. And porn induce you to be wanting it more and more, till you don’t recognize yourself being able to have an erection or orgasm without it.

I won’t lie, I am an appreciator of women’s beauty and I enjoy seeing beautiful women, I can’t deny that, and as Vinicius de Moraes say “Que me perdoem as feias, mas beleza é fundamental.” or in english “May the ugly ones forgive me, but beauty is fundamental.”. So when I go to have an edging session I enjoy have some visual stimulation through beautiful women, I open some softcore porn every random girl posts there in Instagram those bikini photos, those “stories” to show their asses and boob face, those beautiful faces, I can imagine myself with them smashing from their behind, all fours, pronebone, how that pussy would smell in that day on the beach, her voice whispering in my years “yes, yes, yes, oh that’s the spot, you are so hot c3ifador, give me more of that big cock, more, more! OOOOOoooooohhh -then I hit it periodically- O O O O OOOoooo A A A A A A -return to the last stroke frequency- AAAAAaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaa aaaaa” (LOL) Sometimes I imagine those faces after I facefuck them their faces all red and wet, honeyed with a mix of their saliva and my cum, she looking at me like the puppy she is asking “will you give me more, daddy?”. You know what is nice? Those are real women I can start a conversation through the app or approach in the street! You see my point?

You can google lot of studies pointing that porn is bad for your mental health and body.
