The sex therapist said that the key to whether watching porn is addictive is whether it will affect life. On the contrary, over-repressing sexual fantasies, be careful to “use it or lose it” and eventually lead to sexual dysfunction; the picture shows the situation. (picture taken from freepik)
[Health Channel/Comprehensive Report]A Malaysian doctor recently shared that watching too many adult movies will cause brain atrophy and that real guns will lead to loss of libido, which makes many men who have the habit of watching movies feel panic. In this regard, sex therapist Tong Songzhen cited foreign sex research and said that whether watching pornography is addictive depends on whether it will affect life. On the contrary, excessive suppression of sexual fantasies, be careful to “use it or lose it” and eventually lead to sexual dysfunction.
According to comprehensive foreign media reports, Malaysian physician Dr. Samhan (Dr.Samhan) often shootsTikTok videosPropagating hygienic knowledge, he warns of the link between semen loss and improper mechanization of the genitals as a cause of infection, sexual dysfunction or mental disorders. He also believes that excessive addiction to pornography may lead to brain atrophy and real guns but no libido.
Addiction lies in whether it can be controlled
Tong Songzhen pointed out that according to the academic journal “Archives of Sexual Behavior”, scholars Felix Zimmer & Roland Imho (2020) showed that the physical and mental disorders caused by watching pornography are often conceptualized as “addiction”, but Addiction or not depends on whether it can be “controlled”, and the focus will be on whether it will affect life. Since conforming to social norms and making an effort to behave “correctly” about sex is often considered to be a person of good character, “incorrect” sexual behavior, such as masturbation or excessive masturbation, is associated with a person’s poor control.
A high degree of abstinence reduces the chance of orgasm
However, Tong Songzhen said that the research also brought out a counter-indicator, a person with a high degree of self-control and abstinence motivation will have a lower chance of achieving orgasm in sexual life. This coincides with the clinical facts, mainly because the sexual fantasies are overly suppressed, and the sexual desire is completely inactive, which finally leads to the lack of sexual desire.
Do you have a good or bad opinion of adult films? Tong Songzhen emphasized that it all depends on personal motives, especially those who masturbate through adult films, which is a relatively important mechanism. For example, in some conservative countries, those who target religious beliefs or distrust scientific research will think that watching pornography (with masturbation) is unhealthy and may even affect the relationship between the sexes , are all related to attitude, and have nothing to do with watching porn. That is to say, “Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it”, it depends on the attitude and motivation towards sex.
Whether the brain shrinks depends on the sampling standard
As for the part that will lead to “brain shrinkage”, Tong Songzhen explained that there are both positive and negative points of view. It still depends on the main researcher of this study. The attitude towards pornography and the samples taken will affect the conclusion.
Tong Songzhen said that the “lack of sexual desire” or “erectile dysfunction” that everyone is most concerned about, the research and debate will be on the paralysis of “sexual body and mind” (excessive sexual stimulation). In fact, the solution is to guide and lure appropriately. After that, it’s fine to act on your own. On the contrary, the less the person who masturbates, the easier it is to cause sexual dysfunction. That is the “use it or lose it” theory that she advocated.
Tong Songzhen gave an example, people who do not masturbate (abstain from masturbation) have higher sensitivity, and premature ejaculation is more likely to occur, and those who are more prone to masturbation are less afraid to masturbate, an infinite vicious circle. Finally, back to the topic, the issue of advocating to watch or not to watch porn is actually not porn itself, but our attitude towards sex.
