It's odd but over time you become sexually attracted to women through a screen in porn, and not in real life anymore. Even women around me that I thought of as objectively attractive, my penis wouldn't even so much as budge when they were with me, dressed sexy, up against me, touching me...you name it and pretty much zero response from the penis. And I had trouble seeing any kind of real world IOIs, because I was so used to seeing ridiculous over-the-top porn-fueled IOIs, still struggle with this part. I was actually worried about being in a situation where I could've had sex with a girl due to this, because I knew I had PIED, pornography-induced erectile dysfunction (that ED drugs can't fix mind you, as those fix problems in the penis, whereas this one is in the brain) that I knew would take a very long time to heal and it has. But throw on one of my favourite porn videos though, and I could, with increasingly amounts of effort over time, get some kind of erection. It's very strange, and only became a phenomenon with streaming porn. Stuff like Playboy was not capable of causing this effect. I think because the pictures require imagination from your part, whereas you're a cuckholded voyeur in video porn, creating deep-rooted deservedness issues and pedestalisation, self esteem problems with women etc. Many doctors still doubt it's real, but my sexual interest in real life women compared to virtual ones, and my penis being incapable of an erection due to porn use, is real life proof enough for me. Trust me, porn is bad news...I thought it was harmless too, but it was doing it's damage in the background. Dr. Wilson who runs yourbrainonporn.com says that guys typically only take action with porn once they notice erection problems. I had erection problems for awhile, but didn't know of the connection to porn until a member here posted a video called "The Great Porn Experiment" from Dr. Wilson. It explained my troubles in clear detail with zero doubt. That day, quit porn. I'm now clean for 586 days .
More people are wising up over time though. I suspect in time, it will be made illegal. Which is good anyway, it did nothing for me but screw my mind up and help cause me serious problems with women.
Anyway, I don't wish to derail this thread further. I'll give NG a try now since I'm on rest from DMSI anyway.
