< My addiction to porn

~starbreaker

I would suggest considering your use of pornography in context with the rest of your life. I doubt the porn itself is the problem, but a symptom of deeper problems. Are you lonely? Touch-starved? Do you not have hobbies? Is your paid work emotionally unfulfilling? A lot of men use sex (or at least porn) to cope with these other issues because, quite frankly, they seem endemic to current capitalist society and all but intractible.

I've been reading porn (Literotica is more my jam than Pornhub) for over 25 years, and I don't consider myself addicted. I don't think there's any evidence for "porn addiction". I only hit that site when I haven't gotten laid in a while and I want to masturbate. I don't hide this from my spouse of 19 years; she knows I scratch my own itch when I'm in the mood and she's not. She does the same when she's in the mood but I can't help her because I'm at work. If either of us finds something hot, we share it with each other, but we prefer mutual masturbation to solo play with porn if neither of us is up for other kinds of sex.
