  • Jerking off to a slew of sexy babes on the internet: is it all just harmless fun?

  • Or are you actually damaging your brain, depleting your confidence and self-esteem, and messing

  • up your libido!?!

  • My name is Matt Artisan from The Attractive Man and this is the real truth about watching porn.

  • Now, porn has been around since the dawn of time.

  • Our prehistoric ancestors drew cave porn, ancient Greeks erected erotic statues and

  • there are dozens of provocative paintings way before even the porn industry created

  • films!

  • With the advent of the internet it seems as if every guy is watching it, but does that

  • mean it is actually harmless?

  • Some guys might watch porn thinking it's a healthy way to release stress and determine

  • sexual preferences.

  • This might be true but …. Did you know porn is highly addictive and

  • can negatively change the brain's chemistry?

  • Your brain's Limbic system, the reward center, is responsible for making you feel pleasure

  • for positive experiences - like having sex for the first time, or winning a hand at poker,

  • or simply eating your favorite meal.

  • You see, the hormones Dopamine and Glutamate are both released in a regulated dose whenever

  • you have positive stimuli, Dopamine is yourhappy hormonewhile Glutamate makes

  • the body remember the experience.

  • What does porn do to alter this function?

  • When you watch Porn, there is an abnormally increased amount of Glutamate and Dopamine

  • released and the body will react to it as a feeling of intense feeling of sexual pleasure despite

  • the lack of contact with another person.

  • Here's the catch - it will need more and more of it the next time around and even prioritize

  • it over other needs.

  • When uncontrolled, it can become an addiction that can take years to rehabilitate.

  • Even studs like Terry Crews who can probably get any chick he wants was once addicted:

  • So no one is safe from porn addiction.

  • The same kind of addiction that alcohol, cigarettes or even hardcore drugs can cause.

  • When your dopamine levels are out of wack from watching porn, simple things in life

  • that used to give you pleasure, like a nice walk at sunset or eating delicious cake, can

  • seem dull and tasteless. Porn can also kill your sex drive and ruin your relationships.

  • What if I told you porn can decrease your chances of achieving orgasm during sex or

  • even prevent you from getting an erection?!

  • Watching porn regularly hotwires your brain to let your body respond only to the images

  • you're used to seeing onscreen.

  • Which by the way, are a little impractical and rarely happens in real life.

  • When you're actually having sex, the body will no longer be able to respond properly.

  • Thats right man - jerking off to pornstars will condition your penis to only respond to pornstars

  • on screen.

  • The result is the same even when you're just using pictures of hot women in magazines

  • to pleasure yourself.

  • But who does that nowadays?

  • When you're with a real woman, chances are you'll have a hard time getting it on.

  • This could lead to shame and make you less likely to get laid again, at least with that

  • girl.

  • So instead just jerk off to images in your mind of women you've actually met...or better

  • yet, that you've actually slept with.

  • Now, I know that doesn't sound as fun. But it can actually increase your confidence and self-esteem.

  • Another downside of watching porn is that

  • It decreases your motivation to go out there and meet real women

  • and have real connections which can decrease your self esteem.

  • Since you're getting off watching chicks on the net.

  • Chances are you'll to be satisfied with just that, at least momentarily. And you'll have

  • no motivation to go out there and meet real women and have actual sex.

  • You won't have any chance of a real relationship and because of that, you'll look

  • down on yourself more and more, and to ease that pain,

  • guys typically watch more and more porn to get that temporary hit of dopamine.

  • It becomes a vicious cycle that causes you to become distant

  • and recluse.

  • Not good if you want real sex with an actual woman.

  • It can also change your perception of women

  • and create an unhealthy obsession.

  • What happens in porn is ACTING.

  • Pornstars are actresses, though it looks as if they're enjoying it, most of the time

  • they are faking it.

  • Porn can make you forget about the importance of foreplay and have impractical expectations

  • of the real thing.

  • Most real women are just not that eager to give blowjobs all of the time.

  • Sorry to burst your bubble.

  • You may also start to objectify women and see them merely as sex objects, which can

  • be devastating to your mind and to the women around you.

  • Many porn addicts claim that they do not respect women because of their perception from porn.

  • Which is to them, the standards on how to treat women.

  • Now, the worst thing that can happen is that your addiction will likely escalate.

  • Meaning you'll need more and more to satisfy that craving.

  • Your brain will actually help you to refrain from getting addicted - by attempting to lower

  • the dopamine level over time when there's repetition of the same stimulus - this is why we sometimes

  • experience tolerance to things.

  • Like how a alcohol or drug user needs more and more to get the same buzz they once felt.

  • It's the same thing with porn because the dopamine is getting regulated over time, the

  • same amount (duration), kind, and quality of porn will not give you the same pleasure

  • as before - you'll need to escalate to longer periods, and even more aggressive versions

  • to feel the same way.

  • Not feeling satisfied and looking for more intense versions of porn can fully damage

  • the psychethis is destructive for both for you and the people around you.

  • Did you know almost all rapists are also porn addicts?

  • Really no surprise there.

  • Porn really isn't the problem, it's the addiction to porn, creating a lack of motivation, shame and

  • other negative consequences that come with it.

  • Sure, porn may be an avenue for release, but when you overdo it and use it as a way to escape reality

  • and find pleasure instead of going out there and meeting actual women - that's when it

  • causes a serious problem.

  • We're men, and we shouldn't allow porn to take control over our lives.

  • Its way more fun living in the real world than a fantasy world.

  • I suggest cutting it out completely.

  • If you want to masturbate, then I suggest you think about or fantasize

  • about your own past sexual conquests.

  • This can actually increase your confidence and make you feel good afterwards.

  • Now to show you how easy it is to meet women in real life, I'm going to hook you up with

  • a free training where I break down hidden camera footage where I approach a random woman

  • on the street and go on an instant date right then and there

  • and escalate things all the way back to my place.

  • Yup, I break down exactly what to say to create a sexual vibe from the beginning and escalate

  • to a date quickly.
