[quote=BBC News]A quarter of men aged 18-24 are worried about the amount of porn they are watching on the internet, new research suggests. Heavy users in the study were much more likely to report problems with their jobs, relationships and sex lives. Newsbeat teamed up with doctors from the Portman Clinic for the report, the first of its kind in the UK. "Those people spending large amounts of time accessing porn are not having more fun," said Dr Heather Wood. "They are more worried about themselves, more worried about what they are looking at, and report more relationship problems." Free porn One thousand and fifty seven 18-24 year olds were asked to take part in an online survey drawn up with help from Dr Wood and her colleagues at the clinic, part of the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust. Almost eight out of 10 men said they had looked at porn on the internet compared with just over a third of women. Free websites were by far the most popular way of getting hold of adult material, followed by file-sharing networks, mobile phones and TV. The last few years have seen the rise of user-generated porn sites modelled on video sharing services like YouTube, and funded by advertising revenue. The largest are now some of the most visited entertainment portals in the UK, more popular than mainstream sites like ITV.com or Channel4.com, according to the internet ranking company Alexa. Many contain thousands of free videos - from short clips of porn films to hardcore amateur footage. "Anyone who pays for porn these days needs their head checking because there is so much free porn out there," said Ian Barber, 22, from Manchester. "It's just part of lad culture in this country. It's not weird and it's not frowned upon. "Within a second there will be hundreds of videos. That's why people spend so much time on there because they think 'maybe there will be a better one' and they keep going and going." 'Fine in moderation' UK porn star Gemma Massey answers questions on life in the industry The average man in the study spent more than two hours a week surfing adult sites, compared with less than fifteen minutes for the average woman. Two-thirds of men and half the women said that looking at porn was fine in moderation, while 57% of men said it made them more interested in sex with their partners. But a quarter of all men in the survey said there were worried about the amount of porn they were looking at, while almost as many said they were concerned about the type of images they were viewing. Four per cent of men aged 18-24 said they used adult sites for more than 10 hours a week, a level which doctors describe as "problematic and potentially compulsive". Jason Dean, a counsellor who runs a website for online sex addicts, said: "I speak to people who feel unable to cut down or stop using these sites. "It used to be mainly middle-aged single guys but now I get more contact from women, teenagers and people in their 20s." 'Influencing behaviour' Men who look at porn for 10 hours a week are much more likely to worry it is influencing their behaviour, the survey suggested. Higher numbers of those heavy users said their porn viewing had upset a partner or caused them to miss a meeting at work. Men looking at porn for at least 10 hours a week were also more likely to say it can put them off real-life sex. Sixty-one per cent agreed it could make you less interested in sex with a partner, compared with 27 per cent of moderate users and 24 per cent of light users."[/quote] [url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/12918531]Source[/url] I think the worst part of this article is that they're asking readers for comments.
I am not worried.
Why don't they just, you know, stop watching it?

It's so sad to see people discovering how horrible and disgusting and perverted they are on the inside. And by sad I mean hilarious. It's like watching a bunch of rats nibble on cheese and then turn around three times as repentance for eating the cheese and then doing it again. Oh wait, I'm thinking of the Oprah Winfrey Show. Disregard that metaphor. People are just really, really funny.

sometimes i don't know who is in control... me... or the porn
I have to smoke 10 pornographies a day to satisfy my addiction. I hope I don't get cancer.
"Those people spending large amounts of time accessing porn are not having more fun," said Dr Heather Wood." You don't know shit
Haha 10 hours a week on porn? What the fuck their dicks must be rubbed raw!

I see porn like some drugs. Its good at first, but you find the old stuff you used to watch just isn't as good anymore and you need better and better things to view until you get to a point where you wake up in a tub of shit with a carrot in your ass surrounded by pirate hookers. Disturbing concept aside, from what I understand is that too much masturbation can lead to a serious loss in sensitivity in your penis and can also cause ED.
Well, from listening to some Distorted View podcast, 10 hours a week is nothing. There are people nicknamed "goonerbaters" who will fap for something like 8 hours straight. Apparently, they record themselves and put it on a goonerbater website. Of course, the videos are played on the podcast but as audio only. They sit there fapping and saying dirty things to themselves like "Yeah...fuck that big meaty cock." It's fucked up and I've been scarred for life just by listening.

that reminds me, time for a wank.
this is no joke my brother became a heavy user of pornography, he sold our parent's car to feed his pornography addiction he was eventually kicked out and he started working as a male prostitute just so he could smoke a few pornographies. his whole life revolved around pornography and his crippling addiction for it, until one day he was finally found choked on his own vomit in a ditch a couple kilometers from town, the cause of death was not suffocation but overdosing on pornography PORNOGRAPHY RUINS LIVES IT MUST BE OUTLAWED CALL YOUR SENATOR TODAY
[QUOTE=doonbugie2;29333826]Porn is useful when you want to masterbate.[/QUOTE] Mind = blown
I don't watch porn because it's a constant reminder of my small penis that won't satisfy women.

EVERYTHING is bad if there's too much, you just need to take it in moderation. Go without for short periods of time, and once you come back it's somewhat better. When we continuously view the stuff, we start to get bored of certain fetishes, and eventually move on to other ones, some of them not as tasteful as we think (I know I have :ninja:). Circulation is also an important thing; don't watch too much of one fetish, or it'll take longer to lose your desensitization to it. For example, one day watch interracial stuff, the other day check out some lesbian videos (to name a few of the tamer fetishes). It's what I usually do when I bash the bishop, helps keep things a little "fresher". It also helps if you occupy yourself with other things, such as getting out of your chairs and having a nice stretch, trading hats with other mercenaries, killing mutants with wads of cash, or even watching reruns of Whose Line Is It Anyway?, to name but a few. Like I said before, circulation is important. If you don't do something you like for a while, it feels better when you do it after the long interval. Remember willpower as well, willpower is a very vital component of everyday life.
[QUOTE=Vasili;29333842]too much masturbation can lead to a serious loss in sensitivity in your penis[/QUOTE] i ended up with this, used to be a really addicted to porn when i was young :smith: i'm talking about 4 to 8 times a day here
[QUOTE=Lust;29333613]Haha 10 hours a week on porn? What the fuck their dicks must be rubbed raw![/QUOTE] I was about to laugh and then I realized I probably manage that if I've got a couple more days off than usual in a week.
