Question of the Day: Is Porn Bad For You?
I never thought I would be typing these words, but there’s a possibility that exists that porn actually might be bad for you? I know! I’m as shocked as you are!
You see, the theory goes that if men are watching too much porn, then they aren’t used to the actual world of real-life sex, meaning when they try to make love to an actual woman all they’re going to do is make odd grunt sounds and aim ejaculate onto her breasts. This isn’t entirely accurate — I’ve seen an abundance of porn in my day and have never taken to that extreme yet — but there is something there. Take this example from a little article about the 5 ways that porn makes men bad in bed.
Women do not want fingers shoved violently at them:
The whole “Harder! Harder!” thing seems to have come from porn and while that kind of sex is nice on occasion, it isn’t what we want most of the time. Half the time, I’m watching what the men are doing in porn and thinking “Ouch! Her poor vagina!” I mean, seriously. Who wants that?
I will honestly say I was someone who thought this was the way to go about doing things “down there” for the first few
years of my sexual life. Looking back on it, it’s pretty hilarious, but just imagine if I didn’t have a nice girlfriend to show me the way later in life. Consider if my only methods of sexual instruction, like so many boys these days, is simply porn.
There’s also this issue from Fox on Sex:
Sometimes men develop an “idiosyncratic masturbatory style,” as I mentioned before. When a man masturbates, he is often applying significantly higher levels of pressure and friction than real intercourse provides. So, he may get used to a different kind of physical feeling. As a result, there are a lot of men who can only get past the point of no return via oral sex, or manual stimulation (usually their own), but can?t get there during sex anymore.
How many here have been subjected to that little oopsey?
Now, I’m not here to say porn is a bad thing. But maybe the way which it is obtained is bad. Back when we were growing up, getting porn was this big gamble, this “event” you had to plan, acquire, hide and use. Now it’s SO easy to get it that people are getting it all the time. I’m not saying it’s necessarily a bad thing … but it could very well be.
