      Consider two types of handjob: jerking off to porn or a happy ending at a massage parlor. Porn re-wires the brain, is addictive, leads to more extreme forms, desensitizes to real women. A full-body massage from a consenting adult pairs nicely with yoga/gym and a green juice.

      Yet, there's no good evidence that porn (1) rewires the brain any more than anything else does, (2) is addictive, (3) leads to more extreme forms, or (4) desensitizes to real women. This is all rhetoric from the fraudulent & predatory 'sex addiction' therapy industry.

      Any behavior that powerfully stimulates the dopaminergic reward circuits rewires the brains and has the potential to be addictive in those predisposed. As a clinician, I prefer the term "problematic behaviors", and run into a lot of people who struggle:https://twitter.com/DrSepah/status/1095825508544040960 …

      Our biggest epidemic is behavioral addiction. The big 5 are internet, food, shopping, sex, & gambling. While drugs kill, behavioral addictions torture you with a failure to thrive and fulfill your potential. The true tragedy in life is not dying, but never really living. @naval

      The biggest predictor of 'struggling with porn use' is not frequency of porn use, but religious shame about porn use. Every legit sex researcher understands this.

      1/ Atheist here. The recent twitter discussion about Dr. Grubbs papers connect religion to porn addiction urged me to set the record straight . First, religious populations have far LOWER rates of porn use: religiosity is protective against porn addiction https://www.yourbrainonporn.com/relevant-research-and-articles-about-the-studies/critiques-of-questionable-debunking-propaganda-pieces/religious-people-use-less-porn-and-are-no-more-likely-to-believe-they-are-addicted/ …

      Sorry, but the 'your brain on porn' guy blocked me long ago for pointing out that his site is pseudoscience nonsense.

          Could you provide a screenshot showing that he blocked you? He is claiming that you blocked him and it would really help us onlookers to see some evidence. Much respect to you and your work :)

          He claims that you blocked him. It's unfortunate. But I don't see why his site is "pseudoscience"

          There's a tendency to describe as "pseudoscience" those scientific findings that come into conflict with our favorite values. Remember what most "skeptics" thought (some still think) about evolutionary psychology?
