Masturbation

[Gettingbysomehow]

I was just watching this on youtube:

This would certainly explain why my ex husband would not connect emotionally to me, why he couldn't get it up unless he was banging one out watching porn and why he had to get involved in fetish and BDSM and ever increasing stimuli to get it up at all. He was in his 30's when he started watching porn and that is when all of the problems started.
Porn does ruin lives. We had a great relationship and sex life before he started getting obsessed with it.

I think the title of this thread is misleading. Pornography and the damage it does is the issue. Not masturbation.

Yep, I was thinking the same. Porn is the issue.

It is how they masturbate to the porn, though. I’ve read about the ‘death grip’ and gather that what many are watching is not just people having sex, but rather unsavoury stuff.

It is bound to mess with them in all sorts of ways.
I’m glad they are bringing it up, but does Peterson have a large following still?

No, it's porn that's the issue. 100%.

There's another really depressing thread on here today about a porn addict. The way the OP is being objectified and treated like a living sex doll is sickening, but she still seems to think it's her problem to put right. Several other women on the thread describe how their DPs/DHs are. It's appalling.

Too many people are afraid of calling it out in case they are called prudes, or because they also enjoy porn themselves (Duh! That's why it's so invidious!), or they don't like to face up to the fact the men in their lives are enjoying the objectification, abuse and exploitation of girls and women. It fucks up so many lives, so many relationships. It messes up women's sexuality as well as men's.
