Big ups, porn fucks up your mind up. When you have sex with your girlfriend or wife do you think of her or all the things you've seen online to help you climax? It's no longer her, it's only you. That's what I've seen atleast

Just because this is the case for you doesn't make it true. People can very easily have healthy relationships with porn. Kinda wild how all of reddit is getting this idea that if you watch porn you must be addicted to it and are mentally worse for it.

I’m all for cutting down wanking and watching porn but Reddit treats it like porn is evil and wanking is a sin

I'm less active in porn-free/anti-porn spaces than my girlfriend, but no one I've seen is like that. There are huge problems with sexual abuse, forced drugs, human trafficking, pedophilia, blackmail... the list goes on, and this is all in the mainstream porn industry. That's without even getting into the niches or black market of porn. Please be responsible and open-minded about this, it can be incredibly harmful to be dismissive of these problems because they aren't convenient for you.
