hey ! love yr vids, but the thumbnail could be really upsetting to some people. feel like you should change it n add a cw in the beginning. hate to be a stereotypical "woke" kid, but yeah, feel like it's important :)
Just a note, people can certainly compulsively watch porn. There are legitimate changes in brain chemistry that reinforces the behavior. Though, people need to find quality therapists to help them, not this nutball "no-fap" craziness.
But these are the people incels are being targeted by. There will need to be a much stronger pull coming from the side of medicine and science, which is unfortunately pretty exclusively the Left these days.
As frustrating as it is to see these pathetic grown men in this material just waving their red flags like they're in a color guard or something, I think we need to remember that the main target is very young.
It's awful that media so frequently calls black teenage boys "men" and so often calls white young adults "children." I think we should be considering adolescence as longer than we used to, this happens periodically as humanity progresses and the world becomes more complex. There's much more we need to know now to do well in the world today.
Most people don't think of someone as fully adult until 24 or 25. Too many people are financially unable to become as independent as quickly as with previous generations. Cost of living has so outpaced income for too much of the population, even just in the US.
I just don't think the Left should allow ourselves to let our justifiable frustration and anger with cishet (mostlywhite) men boil over to the younger subset of that population group. Under 21 or so, people are often such different individuals than who they become once they've had a bit more life experiences, etc. They are also at *such* higher risk for really serious mental health problems that can last their lifetime if not addressed.
I think it'll be more beneficial to society as a whole, as well as to those young men who are suffering and feeling their pain is being ignored. It doesn't really matter what the real objective truth is about it, it only functionaly matters what those people believe is happening.
@@BoneBugg yeah I agree, it can be a bit triggering to some
Hi Ethan, generally LOVE your videos- I see you take up for every human and speak against exploitation. The sex industry (from stripping to movies) is exploitation. Alot of individuals never planned to be in the industry, it just happens. It's a dark sad concept. I hope we can all stop feeding the problem someday.
Thanks again Ethan for the good points you do make and for speaking out. 🙏🏽
"I'm gonna take you deeper into Jesus" is quite the tagline.
their job is to make dudes quit pron…
but they want them to quit the straight kind.
like they say they’re anti-porn but they consistently create some pretty vivid imagery around fucking jesus
No fap only sodomy with the j man
I don't think I'm ready for the body of Christ
@@sasoridanna9250 right? I’m a little apprehensive about having god come inside my body…..
I'm gonna say this right here, right now:
Being horny is not a personality trait AND being anti-horny is not a personality trait should co-exist.
Yes, thank you!
word
being anti horny gives me the same vibe as being anti eating good food /hj
@@raven-chan2071 Nothing wrong to participate NoFap or whatever. Just not make this turn into a personality trait. Same goes with porn and fap.
@@raven-chan2071 They genuinely aren't. Both Ethan and the OP do their best to attack specifically the grift and exploitation in Ethan's case, and the overt display of opposing sexuality at all in the OPs case.
The opinion is more shaped by the idea that porn addiction and horrible stuff happening in the porn industry are both more systemic issues that some people try to blame on individual failings or the sex workers instead so they can exploit others.
Porn doesn't make you addicted. Boosts of adrenaline and serotonine combined with an environment and upbringing that deprive a person of healthy outlets do. Porn doesn't exploit people. Bosses in an environment with too few regulations, too much shame and not enough support for sex workers do.
So we get angry at these systems and environments instead. The addict is innocent.
"You won't last 10 seconds in combat" is worded dangerously similar to a game ad on the sidebar of a porn site
This game will take you DEEPER into JESUS than you've ever been!?

How do you know about porn sites HUH 🧐
When I came out as trans I stopped pooping, farting and watching porn. It was very weird
see when I came out I STARTED doing all that shit so you better believe that part of transition was wild
@ItIsPossibleThatIHappenToBeWithinAShed that's for you to know, and us to find out.
@ItIsPossibleThatIHappenToBeWithinAShed Mocking a community's higher rate of suicidality. Truly the hallmark of a well-adjusted person

I love how, even when they're trying to stop men from watching porn their masculinity is so fragile that they have to make it military themed.
which is just a different form of fetishization, just of the military and war. like why y’all gotta choose to either totally reject or hero worship everything, can’t you just be neutral or reasonably like/dislike stuff?? the extremes are so odd, but i guess that goes along with the christian male teachings where you’re either being dominant or being dominated, no in between. i wish someone would tell them that not everything’s a power struggle, you can just chill…..
@Raven -Chan I never shamed anyone, 99% of the time they say people are addicted to porn, they aren't. Parts of the porn industry are harmful, but porn itself is not, there is nothing inherently wrong with watching porn or watching it regularly.
If someone is addicted to porn, going to a subreddit for advice and help is fine, but they should also consider seeking professional advice.
@@kit922 I absolutely agree that finding a community is awesome, but if you have a serious issue it could help to talk to a professional.
@@raven-chan2071 porn addiction isnt real and all the claims about the industry are lies from grifters like you
@@sarahbearbabygirl "your a woman, you wouldn't understand"😭😭
My mom and sister wanted to send me to a ‘sex addiction therapist’ when I was a teenager because I read rated M fanfiction. Clearly it was an addiction because I kept doing it ‘despite the consequences and negative impact’ (the consequences and negative impact being, they were mad about it). Because everything a teenager does against their parent’s wishes is an addiction 🥴
I think they just never managed to find a ‘sex addiction therapist’… what they did find was several therapists who told them to stop putting spyware on my phone and computer though 💀
haha I'm glad they got called out at least, it's dumb and controlling to monitor your teenager like that.
Not even E rated damn
Ha! Thank god they didn't find a crazy religious "therapist" though. You dodged that bullet.
what horrible "family" members. especially the mother. major yikes, she thinks spying on a teenager isnt creepy??? eugh.
What is "M rated"?
As a transwoman can confirm, as soon as I accepted I was female I could no longer watch porn, any time I attempted to my brain would black out
I can also confirm that the second I came out as transmasc, I instantly became unable to live without porn. Crazy how that works (/s I'm aroace lmao)
Me, a trans man, suddenly understanding my needs for porn from the start of puberty p much-
it's all coming together, it was because I was a man the whole time!
(I mean, to be clear, it is true, but also like, obv not related to gender. I just had a fuckin' high libido that was probably closer in intensity to most of the amabs in my middle school or whatever, comparative to the afabs. Def made me feel like shit a lot of the time, or "wrong". Fuck gender norms about libido.)
@@kiralonely1307 I ended up developing the high libido that was expected of me as a boy, including being (primarily) attracted to girls, but... was unable to date or have sex in any way as a cis man, because I didn't want to "play the man's role" in a romantic or physical relationship. So for me it was really distressing to have a male sex drive, and I feel better with one that feels more cyclical and contextual.
me startijg to poop and fart all over the place as soon as i came out as a guy
Yeah, and what about all the trans women porn artists, performers and actresses?
I’m happy they were able to remove me from my bondage so I could go deeper into Jesus than I’ve ever been. Also, conquer and warpath is how I would describe my masturbatory habits too

@@sarahwarnock2707 🥵🙌 lmao
To add on to the men centric view of this topic: I was raised Catholic and while these talks were aimed at the boys I as a girl also had to sit through it. Not only did it give me the typical shame, it also made me sympathetic to men who used blue balls or other manipulation tactics. I didn't want to be the reason these men turned to sin (I figured my hand was better than porn?) Or even worse addiction. Because let me tell you there was no casual corn watching you either abstained or were addicted. In turn men also began asking for newds in order to get around the corn ban."I'm trying to not be addicted to porn could you send something instead?" I'm very curious if this "course" covers newds from a SO as ok or if they talk about it at all because it's a side effect of these types of scare tactics.
im so sorry u had to go through that :(
@@ar1ose Thank you it's been many years now, but I mored wanted to make others aware that this is some weird side effect of this trend like women are also being affected.
You should check out the book Pure: Inside the Evangelical Movement That Shamed a Generation of Young Women and How I Broke Free - it's really good read!
I know this is a very serious topic but my humor is horrible and "the corn ban" made me laugh heh

I had a friend who struggled with what could be called “porn addiction” briefly due to trauma and mental illness. She didn’t have to 100% stop watching porn, she just got a therapist and stopped avoiding reality for hours on end. Much less to do with porn and much more to do with PTSD, an actual mental illness.
The proper psychological term they use is hypersexuality/hypersexual behaviour/compulsive sexual behaviour, it is a real symptom of some mental illnesses but they don't use the term addiction because that would be misleading about what it actually is and how to treat it, it isn't an addiction but it is a kind of coping mechanism for some people, or in bipolar mania and adhd it's caused by lowered impulse control, in which case it's a bit more like an addiction but it isn't considered the same because it involves activities that are normal for humans to do, like how compulsive binge eating isn't called "food addiction" because eating is normal, it's just when you don't feel like you have any control over your intake and it's negatively impacting your health that they consider it a mental health issue. Psychologists are generally careful to avoid the idea that there is any fixed amount of sekual behaviour that could be considered too much, unless they're a bad psychologist they'll usually only be worried about whether or not the individual feels it's too much, and their reasons for feeling that way. If it's just shame they'll address the shame rather than the behaviour, whereas if it's an impulse control issue or a response to trauma then the treatment will focus more on the behaviour as well as addressing the other underlying factors.
@@butasimpleidiotwizard whoa this is very interesting! thank you for taking the time to exaplain this!!
This one
Yeah that’s the problem is that people just use porn addiction as a way to denounce porn in an actual reality but the truth about porn is that it’s like a lot of other vices it can be extremely damaging and terrible for you but it can also be a way of self expression a way of finding your sexuality it can be extremely beneficial for some people but porn and alcohol and drugs and sex or just a medium if you have an addiction to those things it is more evident of a bigger problem going on under the surface less to do with the actual thing and more to do with your inner psyche
All porn does is increase intimacy lmao.
I LOVE the whole "girls don't watch porn" rhetoric cuz I watch so much more then my partner does, and ppl can't handle it 😭
Do they think the women in porn are hallucinations? That somehow the oldest profession women have dominated in suddenly stopped involving us when cameras were invented?! It's so stupid and I lowkey wish all female sex workers would stop for 1 week to show them the reality they assert exists.
@@ThexDynastxQueen sexist brain go burrrr...
They couldn't process it even if they wanted to, the pure anger they gain at the THOUGHT of a woman expressing herself sexually clouds all judgement.
@@professorgaming7168 lmao imagine having female friends, imagine not feeling shame about your sexuality, and being in an open and very sexual relationship. Imagine the internet exists and ppl like you comment, cuz do you have a problem with it?
I've known multiple women who regularly watch porn including pretty hardcore cnc stuff. Women are just as horny and perverted as men.
Mainstream porn made for men is garbage though. At least that’s how I feel.
When a normal person says they're addicted to porn, they mean it's affecting their daily life. They're getting in trouble watching porn at work. That sorta stuff. When a christian says they have a porn addiction they mean they look up Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition covers once a week.
nah, its just amplified for christians, lets say you're me and you beat it at least twice a day, for someone like you it wouldn't be considered an addiction would it? however for christians if you cannot tsop watching porn, that is considered an addiction
Do not underestimate Christians. They can f**k yer brains out. Very horny people.Lots of molesters too.
Somehow, despite how often they say that trying harder doesn't work, I can't shake the feeling that "try harder" is a cure for depression in their minds.
Yeah, that and “have faith in god”

I used to work in an adult store (since moved on, but miss it every day) and the amount of bs I heard about sex, sexuality, porn, toys, anatomy, relationships, etc was ridiculous. Groups like this one do so much damage to how people think about healthy sexuality, which just makes things worse!
I can only speak to the US, but here we get so little education there isn't really knowledge to take away from, just more disinformation that gets spread.
But they had sex ed in school! They're educated! (Joking)
Honestly, porn videos were more educational than the basic lectures we sat through. It's scary how little people know about safe sex. It's more than just "put condamn on pee pee" and "no means no".
@@emeraldsoda4059 Learning more from porn than sex ed is definitely a scary thought, seeing that porn is pretty much fantasy.
@@antthomas7916 Good point. I was mainly thinking about how they keep toys clean, what goes into producing porn, and inspiring research (techniques, learning about the human body, more in-depth about contraceptions).
A lot of porn is fantasy and does not translate into real life, or rather, shouldn't. Porn being fantasy is what makes it very appealing. Some people don't know how to discern what should be taken from porn and what shouldn't. Can porn be a helpful resource? Yes. Should it be? No, it would be better if there's proper education. Is learning from porn for everyone? Absolutely not. Always do research, especially if not doing so can cause harm to you or someone else.
Edit: I'm silly. I just reread your comment and realized it said something completely different.
What I said still stands, but it kind of make little sense by based off your comment. 😴
I'm from a country where we get sex ed at school, and I can say things are not much better as far as sexuality goes.
It's even worse: my country has been rated one of the most unsafe countries for women.
@@emeraldsoda4059 Dang you got taught about consent? Our "no means no" talk was also followed up with "Ladies, you have to make sure you say 'no' firm enough."

I'd probably take part in a no nut month for giggles if it was any month except november. That shit is the most boring, miserable month, and limits what you can even do. Too cold for anything summery, no snow for anything wintery. Just a trash month.
Give me No Jerk June or something and I'll go water skiing all month.
YES THIS. I'm cold, and it's the kinda dreary month where whacking one out helps get me tired enough to sleep, cause there's this like stagnant sense of tiredness, but not tired enough to fall asleep, at least imo/ime.
As someone who sometimes suffers from insomnia, porn/masturbating is how I sleep, even if I take a melatonin, half the time it doesn't do enough, lol.
I could totally do No Jerk June, maybe. There's so much more to do, to keep you busy, so you wouldn't resort to shit where you're stuck in your house, either giving you the opportunity to warm yourself up through exercise, cough cough, or get yourself tired for bed or some shit. Hell, do it like No Masturbation May or something, idk, but winter is the worst season for that shit tbh.
I guess in other countries it might be easier. Still isn't fair. :(

@@tacossmiley Because guilt is part of the grift; the whole strategy of people like that is to convince you you're ill so they can sell you the cure. Of course, they also sell you a *temporary* cure, to ensure you have to keep coming back to them for more.
They don't want you to be addicted to porn, they want you to be addicted to them.
your original nofap video is what made me subscribe :) my academic focus is on jewish gender & sexuality (esp. in the hebrew bible) and it never ceases to floor me the way that some (usually fundamentalist/evangelical) christians talk about sexuality. it's just astounding. it's like a car crash i can't stop watching
As a European Catholic, I find these types of people genuinely terrifying.
That sounds like a fascinating area of study
I agree with Andromeda, it does sound fascinating. If you feel up for answering, how different are the Hebrew Bible's views on gender and sexuality? I heard that in Judaism the there are six genders in the bible (male, female, trans male, trans female, tumtum, and hermaphrodite/both) but I don't know the views on sexuality. I assumed they were similar to Christian views, seeing how Orthodox Jews can also be very conservative in that regard.
@@rowancook4369 I'd be interested to hear about it
@@rowancook4369 the 6 genders is actually in the Talmud! sexuality in the Hebrew Bible is generally treated as an aspect of male property and that "properly" channeled sexuality theoretically leads to procreation. But by the time these ideas make it to the time of the Talmud, they got expounded upon really creatively, so that a husband "owes" his wife not just sex X number of times a month based on his job, but that he owes her an orgasm BECAUSE the rabbis believed that that was required to make a child. Some of them even believed that in order to have a male child, the wife had to orgasm FIRST. a lot of stories in the Hebrew Bible revolve around the biblical authors' ideas of "correct" sexual behavior or masculinity, but the Talmud (which has more influence in Judaism) is way more open--to the point where there are a large variety of erotic stories included in it. if you're ever curious, i highly recommend reading "Song of Songs" (or "Song of Solomon"). interpretations of that from early rabbinic Judaism and early Christianity try to frame it as an allegory for the love between God and Israel/God and the Spirit of a person, but this poem does not mention God once and is incredibly sensual. it's very cool because it's almost shocking to reconcile our more general understanding of what we think of as being in the Bible with the blatant eroticism of "Song of Songs."
For a site trying to get us to not fap they got a lot of phallic imagery going on.
What about the shocking realization that you can fab WITHOUT porn? Bang goes their money-making premise.
This feels like conversion therapy tbh. "We're going to rebuild your sexuality and change your life. Give us money. We'll make you a real man."
What's conversion therapy? I want to understand what you're saying.
@@mollykircher3104 it's when people pay to have someone try to force them to not be gay. It is fake because sexuality can't be changed. And they are abusive and exploitive and homophobic. Look it up cuz I am bad at explaining
@@liamsommer2276 I will look it up thank you for explaining!
@@mollykircher3104 Conversion therapy is more or less a form of "therapy" that tries to force someone gay, or someone lesbian, or in many cases of gender conversion therapy, which is somewhat different, tries to force someone to be cisgender, etc., through methods similar to brainwashing, gaslighting, and over all emotional, sometimes physical and/or sexual, abuse, all to "convert" someone to be the majority norm, in this case, straight. It's basically deemed a form of torture.
@@kiralonely1307 holy crap dude. I'm sorry I didn't know that. Thank you for telling me!
I took this course in high school! My senior year the football coach started an after school group and about 1/3 of the guys at my school showed up. We met once a week and had accountability partners (groups of 3-4) that would talk regularly as well. We had work books we'd take home, I think I still have mine somewhere, and sometimes teachers would come in and talk about their "experience struggling with porn". Most of the guys there said they needed accountability because "they see girls in bikinis on Instagram and look too long". Now I kinda wanna find my workbook and see how differently things were a few years ago when I was still in the evangelical bubble
Looking too long at girls in bikinis lmao. Christian purity culture is a hell of a drug.
When they go to the beach do they just,, walk around with their eyes closed??
@@starsiadraws that's best case scenario for these losers. Some of them go out of their way to harass women for dressing revealingly.
@@starsiadraws they probably harrass those girls into covering up lmao
I mean, the real answer here is that they should've partaken in carnal pleasures with eachother. Not technically masturbation if you're helping somebody else! 👍

Being against major porn industry business and recognizing and wanting to fight the cultural and social ¡negative! impacts of it is very different from... whatever is going on in these peoples mind to be honest.
I find it funny how some people get SO close to a plausible point and then completely miss the mark.
people don’t even want to fight the cultural and social negative impacts because then you’re being a “sEx nEgAtIvE sWeRf,” please. pr0n fetishizes things like racism and sexism and watching people you don’t having sex is weird, bye.

I have the feeling that this is meant for Christian “alpha men” that is why they use the war references.
War rhetoric is just extremely common in Christian churches in general. Even as kids you're taught that you're "in the Lord's army" (there's a whole song for that). And that continues on into adulthood with hymns like "Onward Christian Soldier". They just like war references a lot because it makes everything seem more serious and preps you for immediate action.

"SEXUALITY IS A WAR" Is that what people mean when the say "gay agenda"? :)
The funniest part for me is how the movie he made has worse acting than any porn. And there's some bad acting in porn.
Allegedly.
It’s kind of bizarre it actually has some decent production quality lmao like they must be making bank from these dudes.
@@davidbowman2001 yeah, I think the issue is he wants to do the acting himself, like The Room, except he can't act. Nobody is good at everything, that's why collaboration makes great art.
there's always bad acting and unflattering lighting in porn.. that's why I watch it ironically 😉
Holy fucking shit. I recognize this guy. To give some background I was going through a really rough time, trying to maintain a relationship with someone who claimed to be a sex addict, and had cheated more than once (I do believe that she was being truthful to a degree, she was a victim of some pretty awful things at a young age, I was well warned before the shit hit the fan). I saw this guy as a legitimate source for information to help me understand my partner. I can't even imagine the rabbit hole I might've fallen down. Luckily we split up. That sucks, I loved her, but It's a bit freaky how accepting I was of this guy's rhetoric. His channel is Dr. Doug Weiss.
I feel you, I experienced something similiar
On the Meet Dr Ted Roberts page on the website he has this line "From the violent jungles of the Vietnam war to the hand to hand combat of getting free from sexual bondage..." and it's genuinely possible I may never stop laughing.
Turns out those villages didn't have a problem with mercury poisoning, they just stumbled across no-fap websites decades before the internet even existed.
The US lost the Vietnam War so that openly foreshadows why this is a grift and won't work lol.
Sounds like ted know a lot about sexual bondage. Kinky lol
The fact that only men watch porn is very affirming to my gender. Thanks Christians

my dad used to be one of these "warriors" of god, hes probably still christian, but like a month ago i came out to him as bi, and he accepted me😁. but funnily enough, while typing this comment i got a "quit porn now" ad
it’s so disturbing to see people arguing against porn because of its effects on men instead of the actual harm done to women in the industry. like there are real reasons to dislike porn, these people just don’t see women’s pain as enough of a reason.
They’d have to care about women first or just see us as human beings in order for them to see it as enough of a reason.
I agree with this statement.
look at this victim @@rayay248
honestly, there's tons of reasons to be against porn or the porn industry. But these men don't actually care about the people who get hurt. It's about moral Superiority..
Yes I came to comment this!! There is a real conversation to be had about the dangers of porn regarding the safety of women in the industry and the way that young people (of all genders) will be taught to view women as sexual commodities because their naked bodies are accessible at all times in porn. I was raised super religious and taught "porn bad because god hates it" but as an adult I've realized that "porn bad" for WAY different reasons
"Remember kids, you can't fly a jet with your hand on your crotch!"
Using religion as a weapon is so common now people just complain about it and move on, since when has this be been allowed to continue? I'm glad you went into depth on this, I really enjoy these videos.
Congrats on your sponsor by the way!

Adam and Ed, actually, lol. Honestly my favorite rendition of the names to be frank, it's not one I hear often.
Ethan for the love of all that is good stop telling these ppl that women watch porn, I don’t want this shit aimed at us too. He’s lying guys i don’t even know what porn is, don’t listen to him.
It's gross that these guys think that everyone who watches any amount of porn is addicted. Porn addiction is a real issue, but they are downplaying the actual problem (which is in the minority of porn watchers) with this shit about how EVERY person watching porn is bad!
Seriously! It’s very disturbing how they insist on that!
@@darkstarr984 it's like they don't understand what moderation or control are....
I grew up in a Christian boys home and once a year we had to do this same exact course. We would have to sit in a group and talk about how we overcame our urges, and some people even read from their journals…. Since I was there for so long I had to go through the group with lots of different kids… one kid gave a detailed account of his fetishes and it was pretty insane
This sort of stuff had such a negative impact on me for years. I became a Christian and started going to church at the end of my senior year of high school and went to various campus ministries and churches in college and was always being told that you should only have any physical contact with women if you're dating and planning on marriage and anything beyond kissing isn't allowed until after marriage. Also, you can't watch porn because that means you're a terrible person. Imagine being in your late teens and early 20's when your body is filled with hormones and then being told that any expression of your sexuality is a sin against God. That led to so much anxiety and depression for almost a decade.
@5:05 For a sec I legit thought that old commander guy was gonna say "You know how to fly, but you don't know how to fap" and be the inciting incident for his porn addiction
11:10 Why he gotta say "bondage" in a course for porn addicts? 😩

I mean porn addiction is real. You can be addicted to anything that gives you a pleasure response. So of course porn addiction is real. But it's not some major societal issue like they love to push.
yeah, and no need for all their villifying of porn producers, or the entire industry... like yeah exploitative, bad for women, so are some fast food companies. Name something bad they do that isn't also something other bad capitalists do. They're just trying to meet what they think is consumer demand, like any other business in existence.
@@naomistarlight6178 true. I would argue the porn industry is particularly insipid because of the rates of sexual violence in the industry, but these people don't actually care about that. They have the same feelings about viewing self made content on someone's onlyfans or whatever and then they call those women "seductresses" or "thots" which is just anti women bigotry in meme form.
5:08 i deadass thought he was gonna say "still think you're a hotshot? You wouldn't last 10 seconds in bed" 😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm pretty sure porn addictions can exist, if gambling addictions why not porn? But this is 100% not the way to cure it for almost all people I would guess lol. How would this course help anyone?! Omf this shits crazy 😭
Yeah exactly. It reminds me of gaming addictions. They DO exist, but they're much more rare than some people of older generations would like you to think they are.
being on HRT made me realize that how much you masturbate is almost entirely dependent on how high your libido is. like no matter how bored i am i won't masturbate or seek out porn most of the time because im just not horny. as apposed to when i did it multiple times a day because i got in the mood at the drop of a hat
ethan: “not that i would know: 😐”
I sincerely thought that guy who grabbed him and said "you think you're a hotshot?" was going to smooch him.
As someone in the military it’s funny to see all the “war” imagery. As if most of the men in the military aren’t 20 somethings that talk openly about watching porn
Sex addiction feels like it could be a symptom of some underlying mental health issue. Like if you stopped a sex addict from having sex it wouldn’t matter. Whatever problems the sex addiction was causing would just manifest themselves in a different way because the sex itself isnt the problem. I fully admit I know little about behavioral addictions and my statement is nothing more than just a guess. Haven’t researched the topic enough to judge if its a “thing” or not.
Its been a while since I took abnormal psych, but yeah I'm pretty sure its considered a part of an addictive personality in general. Some people are just more inclined to grab onto something and not let go, and its usually because there's something else going on since there isn't really a biochemical reason to become addicted to porn (unlike hard drugs, nicotine, caffine, etc).
If you get addicted to porn or sex, there's either some hang up there that should be addressed (lack of intimacy, trauma, etc), or you're just naturally inclined towards addiction. no-fap people always like to talk about the dopamine hits you get from masturbating, but you get dopamine from lots of things, and we would have died out if it was easy to become addicted to masturbation (you literally need nothing to engage in it after all). Course, the no fap people also like to redefine addiction as "doing something once a day that otherwise doesn't interfere with your functioning", which is very much not the standard of psychology.
anyway, not a psychologist, but pretty sure you're right on the money with that.
@@SilverDragonJay idk what nofap ppls opinions are, and this Christian nofap whatever thing is definitely unhinged. However Porn addiction is definitely real. I've never heard anyone make the case about masturbation addiction, so I can't speak to it's merit. The main issue with porn is that it's hyper stimulating. People who consume porn frequently become desensitized to sexual acts and attractive characteristics, leading them to discount the appeal of their partner/potential partners as well as normal sex. Sex is a very rewarding activity when done well, and releases dopamine and oxytocin in large amounts, which make you feel good and promote partner bonding. Porn, however, creates much larger spikes of dopamine and can be repeated and elevated for long periods of time with it's relative ease of access. The near infinite novelty of porn content highjacks the reward system of the brain and makes other activities seem dull in comparison.
Porn addiction can be defined similarly to most other addictions, lacking the chemical dependency trait. People find themselves unable to cease use, even when it begins to cause problems in their life. Some may alter their behavior in order to make more room for porn in their life, and engage in risky behavior doing so. They may choose to forgo spending time with friends or family and instead watch porn. Some people cannot make it one day without watching porn, some, not even a single shift at work. People may hide the true scale of their porn use, or the fact that they consume it all together from their partners.
I do not deny that some amount of people can watch porn in a healthy and regulated manner. If you and your partner agree that there is space for porn in your relationship, or your consumption of porn is not harming your ability to find a relationship (presuming that is something you would want) and the above condition is met, there is really no issue with using porn in that way.
Increasingly, people are being exposed to porn at younger and younger ages. Children are modeling their ideas of sex based off of porn and may not actually experience the real thing for many years. For someone who is not equipped to weigh and address the consequences, porn is a dangerous thing.
I agree that people who have addictions in general are likely to have problems in the other areas of their life: lack of intimacy, loneliness, depression, trauma, etc. Solving those issues has no bearing on the actual addiction besides potentially lessening or removing one of the many motivations to engage in the harmful activity. People often become addicted to something when it becomes the solution to too many problems. If you drink to relieve some social anxiety when you go out sometimes, that can be perfectly fine and healthy. If you drink to cope with your daily anxiety, and destress from work, and avoid emotions, and turn to it when you feel rejected or lonely, and use it to have fun every weekend, addressing any one of those causal issues will not solve the addiction. It is possible that solving all of them will still not cure the addiction.
@@SilverDragonJay Yeah there are many things people do that could be considered addictions/habits that are usually a result of underlying issues, like nail biting and hair pulling. That doesn't mean it's not good to try to "quit" those habits, but the underlying issues need to be addressed too
That's pretty much all addictions in most cases, doesnt make it less of a problem. Ppl use variety of things as coping mechanisms to escape from their problems and feelings. I do think porn addiction is a thing as someone who personally struggled with it myself. Some ppl watch so much of it that it follows into their regular lives to the point where they see casual situations and ppl as inheritly sexual and get aroused by it. But because corn is such a normal and regular thing by society, no one really takes it seriously nor the problems that arise from it. (It's possible to consume corn in a healthy manner, but many people don't know how or simply don't care)
@@Hi7here it's not an addiction though, which is why terms like sex addiction and porn addiction are not widely accepted or used by professionals. The medical terms are hypersexuality/hypersexual behaviour, or compulsive sexual behaviour. It's not an addiction because you can't be addicted to natural healthy activities that your body is supposed to do, food is another example of this, compulsive overeating/binge eating are definitely things people do that can be classified as symptoms of an eating disorder, but they aren't addictions because you're supposed to eat food. These issues are always either caused by lowered impulse control, like what's seen in ADHD and bipolar mania, or they're the brain's attempt to cope with or avoid difficult feelings caused by trauma, stress, or poor mental health in general.
By the way, I'd like to mention that this is INSANELY expensive. If someone has an actual porn addiction and wants to kick it, there are so many free tools. Whether the person wants to kick it from a secular perspective or a religious one, there are tons of free apps and programs, and stuff you have to pay for should be no more than $10 a month for a large amount of content or resources. Charging $35 for four videos is extortion, plain and simple.
You can also just go outside. Pretty good way to get rid of a porn addiction. Just go on a walk whenever you can and you won't really think about it. Always remember! Public parks are completely free!
10:28 "we're not going for short term bandaid stuff." And yet they have a paid course for after the paid course just to make sure you stick with it. If they think they're treating an addiction, wouldn't they want to actually provide their clients with the tools necessary to operate and maintain their progress after fully leaving their program.
Just chiming in to say your giggle laugh at 5:30 was a straight shot of dopamine to my soul and also the same reaction I had when you revealed the Conquered Cinematic Universe. Thank you.
CW: self harm
i recently relapsed in my recovery of self-harm, and searched on youtube for “watch this if you relapsed” and every single, i mean EVERY SINGLE ONE, was about nofap- i kept on scrolling and scrolling and it was bonkers
wow that's not good, as a recovering self-harmer myself.... wtf?
It's crazy bc i grew up in a church where this was typical thought (guys have a porn addiction if they watch it at all, apparently) and i just grew up hearing that kinda stuff as normal when it's actually fucking insane. Anyway i LOVE the new background! Loving ur videos dude 😎
Apparently I'm addicted to alcohol, because i do it occasionally. I guess i gotta cure my addiction and never drink alcohol again
That course looks extremely stupid, but it's important to recognize why the grift works. Most people become Christian, or begin taking faith seriously, in adolescence or early adulthood... the same time in life when sexual desire is strongest. For a lot of people it's also vaguely associated with shame. This philosophy of "sexual purity" gives people an explanation for their shame, and promises a way to deal with it. But they soon discover it doesn't work.
And let's be clear about the real subject here: it's not p**n, it's masturbation. They don't want to say that, though, because then they would seem even dumber than they already do. But if you're a Christian and a cis male and believe masturbation is wrong, you'll try to stop, and you'll fail. (This is a typical experience, but obviously not all cis men experience this, and others, such as cis women, experience it too.) And this failure is miserable - go no-fap for three days, and it interferes with sleep, in many cases. It's miserable. It feels like it must be an addiction, a deep corruption in your personality and moral fiber, not just normal hormones flooding your system.
Programs like this promise to cure the addiction - you just have to pay the fee, get inspired, and take it as seriously as going to war.
That won't work either, but maybe some guys can tell themselves it does, and as for the rest, well at least they paid their fees for 6 months or a year before moving on. The fee is what matters.
Note: this is me sharing my struggle with porn addiction. I don’t shame people for liking porn as long as they consume it in a healthy dosage, like weed.
I think I do struggle with porn addiction. I was exposed to some really messed up shit at a really young age. It’s disassociated me from sex and even now the thought of me having sex is repulsive yet I practice “self love” 9+ times a week and it gets in the way of my life. I’ve had unhealthy relationships and am extremely confused about where I lie on the asexual spectrum. Like maybe if I work through and get over my trauma I’d be allosexual. And honestly I wish I was in a program that would help me. Maybe not these guys tho.
I feel like you’re discounting the trauma that early exposure to porn can cause and porn addiction in general.
It's also true that for some people the more they view porn the more extreme it has to be to get their attention/arouse them which can obviously be harmful.
I actually got up to get the remote to skip what I thought was a military recruitment ad when the first bid came up
The sad thing is there are people with porn addictions that hurt their quality of life. Then they aren't taken seriously because of religious nutjobs and other internet weirdos
Lol There was this guy on Quora asking "how do you reverse the effects of sissy hypnosis? I watched it and now I feel like I'm becoming girl!" Umm...... is anyone gonna tell him?
She'll figure it out eventually.
I have absolutely no idea why, but for the first few minutes of the video, I thought he was saying "conkers series" not "conquers series" and I was like "what a dumb name"
I still stand by that comment
I dont think jesus addiction is ever mentioned enough.
In the Lord's time they used to call that God crazy so that lets me know that this isn't something new there is always been crazy people for God 😱 I think most of them wrote the Bible 😄
The sword made me think they were foreshadowing castration
Honestly, I _do_ think you can be addicted to porn - the same way you can be addicted to alcohol, sex, sugar, shopping, and gacha games. Anything that gives you a dopamine rush, or makes you feel good, really. But the key thing is that addiction is usually a symptom of a different mental illness, like depression or PTSD. It's never really about the thing you're addicted to, it's about your desire to feel good controlling your life and altering your decisions. _Anything_ can be addictive in the wrong amounts, not just porn.
But of course you know we have to single porn out because sex is bad and evil and [checks notes] puts a noose around your soul.
GACHA GAMES??? LMFAOOOO
@@mymelody9560 to be fair, people do spend thousands on gacha games like Geshin and other stuff like that. Its another form of gambling addiction, except with characters instead of money.
My favorite part of all of this, would have to be the irony of a "stop porn addiction" add playing for me before the video even started
They keep saying "trying harder doesn't work" which is so fucking funny. Isn't buying a course like this basically trying as hard as you can?
In nearly all those videos they were talking about how porn is “The Enemy’s” plot to sabotage you, which got me thinking, if they were talking about Satan, you’d think they’d just say it’s Satan. They specifically chose the phrase “The Enemy” as if they’re talking about someone else. Like bruh, that’s not even a dogwhistle at that point, it’s a goddamn air siren.
Dude I've been listening to your videos while I draw and play games. Deadass, never been more focused 💖
