~91 links to studies in there about why porn is unhealthy for your mind, your social sphere, and your body.

While I don't completely agree with the idea porn is degenerate in and of itself.I know unpopular opinion here. I think watching a dude fuck a women probably isn't the best idea in the world as it has certain implications. I support you in your goal. I will hope you succeed. Don't give in, fight you can win. Human beings are strong because we can change ourselves if I am to quote a certain show.

Honestly, I think porn is not inherently dangerous, but it can be a part of a dangerous lifestyle. You said no half baked theories, but to me this is simple truth in addiction and dopamine.

In a nutshell, when you indulge in something, it brings a greater reward to your brain due to the “limited” nature of said indulgence. What happens if you consume an indulgence everyday? Naturally, your brain will build a tolerance to the indulgence and you no longer recieve a similar reward for indulging. This leaves your brain in a craving state as it still has a sense of the previous “high” from that first indulgence.

Therefore, you begin to either A: seek out higher-rewarding indulgences (aka more porn and of different variety) or B: you indulge with other non-porn related substances (You can also have both possibilities simultaneously).

This behavior in caving to indulgences sets a bad precedent, and can causes trend downward of losing self control and engaging in more and more degenerate indulgences.

In essence, porn is not bad, but often leads towards more lenient behavior in regards to abstaining from degenerate behavior.

Again, this is an abbreviated run down of what I know and without sources, but is consistent with studies pertaining to addiction, self control, and porn.

I saw that and commented

The role porn plays in society is a worthy topic of debate and I was disappointed you weren't actually interested in debating your conclusion.

It's too bad too since the time required for a thought-out response is time spent not "using porn".

O and a quick question about discipline. Who is more disciplined...the man who abstains from alcohol because they can't trust themselves to not drink in excess? Or the man that can drink a few and stop without effort? The man that avoids casinos because theyll gamble their life savings...or the man that sets his limit and sticks to it?

I don't think there are any honest on that topic. Your reptile brain doesn't differentiate between porn and real women so deep down you think you are spreading your seed far and wide with many women. That I have read but you look it up as I'm beat. When I beat off I visit the spank bank of memory.
