Porn is becoming a problem and contributes to the male loneliness epidemic.
The consumption of porn is becoming incredibly problematic. Erectile dysfunction is increasing in younger men that has been directly linked to porn.
40% of men who consumes porn on a normal basis also reported depression and other mental health illnesses. Porn is setting unrealistic body standards for both men and women that is also contributing to depression and loneliness. Increased consumption of porn has been linked to increased sexual objectification of women. There is a positive correlation between the normalization of porn and sexual violence.
45% of people who watch porn states that it has damaged their real-life relationships. A lot of these numbers may be under reported. These numbers may be closer to 50 and 60%.
People will get their release from porn and then feel empty inside because we’re human. We’re made to want and desire community. Not just a screen displaying a fantasy.
Porn is becoming a problem. It is contributing to the male loneliness epidemic. Men on average in younger generations do not know how to approach most women because they never had too. And I also feel like this plays a role into why our birth rates are down.
P.S. When I say men and women I am generalizing. I know not all men and women do this!
