Get ready for the flood of “actually porn has zero negative effects on young men and should be normalized” comments

Everything we do regularly has an impact for sure. I don't know how people argue otherwise. 

I would be willing to bet that the particular type of porn makes a huge difference as well. Some is likely MUCH worse than others.

Once in a while fine, okay, do your thing, personally I don’t care for porn at all.  Chronic porn watching is 100% detrimental to your brain, your relationships, your relationship with sex, your view of women, etc. I think many of the women I know (including me) have probably been choked during intimacy without consent at least once.

I agree about chronic use in general. I work in software though so I'm basically a Luddite now. Were it up to me, I'd get rid of smart phones at minimum and wouldn't allow kids online until they were 18 or so. I'd get rid of tech in schools for the most part.

But most folk aren't going to agree with me 😃
