Porn The New Tobacco | Jack Fischer | TEDxBinghamtonUniversity

- Pornography has quietly taken the world by storm. A growing body of research is shedding light on the destructive effects that widespread consumption of porn may be having, with disturbing parallels to realizations about tobacco use a generation ago. An online community called NoFap has sprung up in response and is a rapidly growing open forum for those struggling with and speaking out against pornography, epitomizing the power of community - and the double-edged sword of technology.
Sophomore Jack Fischer, a Binghamton University Scholar majoring in computer science and math, is passionate about public education, data and technology, and has coded a motivational panic button used millions of times a year by those participating in NoFap. He has worked at The New York Times and while there demonstrated differences in how public and private universities are publicized. He loves hackathons and is an active participant in Binghamton’s own HackBU, also working with its leaders to coach students learning how to code.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
Time to stop. Who's with me, because I'm going to be a beast! Let's do it!!!
I'm with you!
+Spectrum Split Ok, we're starting now because I didn't stop. I was actually going to stop and exercise like crazy, but I dislocated my knee the day before school got out.
BLUEDRAGONFLY Well, exercising is a very good idea. But the problem about the time we don't exercise, you know... The memories and urges become everywhere.
BLUEDRAGONFLY, I am in!
I'M with you 💪
The internet is here to destroy us, but thankfully it is here to save us as well.
phycoman4561 i a’m sped
The internet is just here. You choose how to use it. You've always had the power Dorothy.
Nofap is not bullshit. Everything he mentioned is so on point
Show me a study that backs up this claim then
@@a_single_white_female Do your own research, coomer.
@@a_single_white_femaleyou still want it? I could show you many studies if you want
@@a_single_white_female silence coomer
I'm watching this video at ×0.75
Kim Jong Un 1.25 for me
This comment should be pinned
Same 😃
I didn't think of that! Thank you. I'll rewatch. Haha
And it sounds perfect. Amazing.
I wish I have started NoFap earlier in my life.
how old are you
It's never too late bro
Same. Didn't discover it before I was 27.
18
yeah me too
I'm so glad that there are people with the courage to speak out about this issue
Day 130 on NoFap ! This is no longer a challenge to achieve, but a lifestyle to live !
that's a VERY inspiring quote, and well done bro.
2nd time recovering addict here. First time was 3 months a year ago, today I'm at one month. The side effects like ED, social anxiety, and depression are real.
I also recovered once for more than 150 days but then relapsed and my addiction came back again and now I'm at my 2nd round I hope I do again this time I'm more positive but I hope it doesn't take much time like the first time.
He talks like Zuckerberg, but he says all the right stuff.
Nunyo Bidness He LOOKS like Zuckberg as well
That is right. But I think the name is Zuckertort. Or, am I wrong ...
I've realized that once you take away that instant gratification layer...life becomes so much more pleasant. I am never bored any more. Ever. I simply do not have time to be bored. I can't feel bored even if I wanted to. To me, boredom has become a symptom of brain imbalances. There should never be any reason to feel bored. Ever.
My point being is that you've got to use those urges to masturbate...use that energy...harness it and you can do anything. There are no limits. There are days when I have the most insane urges, and no matter what I do I can't seem to shake them. These usually come a few days after a relapse...but I tell myself these words: "If I can get through this today, I won't have to feel it tomorrow...tomorrow will be an incredible day if I can get through today". And its usually true. By resisting my urges, I harness that energy and the days afterwards are usually pretty incredible. I feel like a god amongst men. I radiate life.
This is why I don't want to put limitations on abstinence. The urges feed me with the fuel that I need to keep living an incredible life. This is why the hardest times for me are not actually the times when I have urges, but those calm periods when I do not have them. I have no drive to push me forward. However, urges can be debilitating, and that is why it is worth it to get past 90 days of no masturbation. While the urges will still be there past 90 days, they will be significantly weaker. I hope they will be enough to push me out into the world, but not debilitating enough to make me fall on my knees and shake involuntarily.
It is worth it to harness this sexual energy. If you defeat masturbation, you defeat porn as well. You become a master over your body, and your urges. I believe that is the fundamental key to happiness in this life.
Day 146 without porn for me.
It definitely helps improve your sex life... that shit's toxic.
+Stefan Alexander Lay Glad that you're on board, Stefan! Thanks for sharing your thoughts - not many people do - and awareness about this unspoken-about issue will benefit the world.
Day 200 something now :)
wrg
The Roar Within still going?
Still going?
Thousands of men are receiving incredible benefits: no more depression, social anxiety or any other anxiety, better relationships, better work ethic and overall self-improvement. Better quality of life. Its not only from stopping masturbation but the drive it gives you to do new things instead of wasting time.
So not jerking off cures depression ..... Wow.
The no-fap community is easily the most delusional and gullible group of morons I have ever come across.
Ziegen Peter Way to misrepresent what I said. I said it gives you drive to improve life. Not that by stopping you magically wake up and all your problems are gone. Although lot of anxiety really does leave just like that.
Ziegen Peter Edge Master General over here is voicing his external subjective ignorance again.
Ziegen Peter
head on to yourbrainonporn.com to find actual scientific studies. "As expected, Cambridge University researchers found that compulsive porn users react to porn cues in the same way that drug addicts react to drug cues."
Babli02 And food addicts react to food cues in the same way that drug addicts react to drug cues. Addictions are addictions. Doesn't make food or porn inherently bad, does it?
The majority of the so called studies are just utter garbage. There is a reason why the creator of ybop is completely disregarded in the science and psychology community.
Relevant studies that disprove their entire agenda are completely ignored and the very few studies they do present are horseshit.
Nofap member here. NOFAP FTW!!!!
2:36 was pure gold.
Rip man 5 years ago and no replies
@@SpeedKing.. It's a little strange
@@fa3il_5air72 I think so
This guy has clearly done his research, and I definitely respect his opinion. :) Great talk, Jack Fischer!
booklover78910 He made up everything he said or his religion brainwashed him
Where was research? Where was evidence? Everything he showed were anecdotes of people, who quit it by their own decision. These people already are extremely confirmation biased but there also was no mentioned medical record on how nofap affects you.
I recommend you do some actual research in a library on scientific sources.
It will not look good for nofap.
Bro all he did was recited gary wilsons book. I can do that too
not watching porn makes you speak entirely too fast
Watching porn makes your brain to slow to be able to understand a no porn user.
true lmao@@annagudmundsen4419
Why is he talking so fast tho 🤔
Hahahaha
It’s better. I’d rather watch an 8 minute video than a 15 minute video
I hope this gets more popular. Great talk.
This showed in my suggestion, my CIA agent got my back
Great talk. I think the tobacco analogy is overused but it does help people understand. Commenters are either in denial or aren't addicted
seasch71 Good one man.
Anytime you are tempted, replace it with a different action. Any time you are feeling temptation, do 10 push-ups, run in place, crunches. If it is too great leave the house and walk. Anything that replaces the temptation will help you build confidence.
Thanks, mate.
Took that shirt out of the package just before going on stage
Christopher Hill haha I thought exactly the same
That’s what you take away from this video?
Hehehe
Day 32 , I can now control minds and bend reality.
Hahahahahah
How to condense a 15 minute talk into 8 minutes
No!!
In 8:25 minutes
Glad i joined the nofap movement, and today marks my second year of nofap, and man i feel so liberated and dependant it feels amzing :D
Nice!
BotonBangBoyz You can do it too
Jev Laa Uh what !
Jev Laa If you're not then why did you say it in the first place and can i know what it is ?!
+Jev Laa For some reason i can't see any link, why don't you just say what it is because i'm starting to think you're trolling me
NoFap is the best community I have been a part of lately.
Well, said. Stay strong everyone :)
i do nofap
nofap is for virgins
Stop the grot!
The Realest Somali nofap is for real grown up men , who can control their lives.
Seriously, can't people do anything within moderation? I haven't got that problem, because I have a strategy called inhibition. An alcoholic that quits drinking completely is still an alcoholic mentally.
mikitz are u so naive? Not everyone is like you.
Day 37, wish me luck please ;)
Good luck! 😊
👍🏼
this video cheers me up a lot.
dude! Slow down!
+MrQwerty2524 do you realize how wound up this guy must be from all the abstinence? of course he's going to be operating at 100 mph
Now you can slow the video down to .75, makes it sound normal
Will Prusinski thanks for your advice
He’s nervous. Social anxiety. I know because I do the same sometimes. He’s also Mark Zuckerbergs clone.
Speaking fast due to social anxiety from rigorous and excessive fapping.
This guy is speaking the truth, God Bless him
Religitards aren't capable of knowing truth.
They can't even distinguish a fact from a belief.
@@TasteMyStinkholeAndLikeIt Please explain the existence of Sir Isaac Newton then, who was a Christian, as well as every other famous christian scientist.
@@richardolsen8574 The existence of the believers isn't proof in itself, but is good mark👍, for me I have evidences on my belief, which is more likely to be called (knowledge) , which is: Islam religion, for the evidences try searching:
1. (The journey of certainty) playlist
2. (Ahmed alsayed English subtitles) channel
3. (Sabighat) book, which is available for free on google, and is simplifying some of Islam religion's evidences
4. Dr. zakir naik, which is religious scientist
@@TasteMyStinkholeAndLikeIt Not any religion is having the same patter of not enough proofs or evidences! don't act to any belief as they're all alike! my belief isn't based on threadbare evidences! to know it read my reply before this one
Grande patty aguirre y seba por el trabajo, Gracias totales!!!
I hope some people take this seriously because it damages so many relationships and the people you love because of the addiction. My fiancé and I have a baby on the way and we aren’t getting married until his addiction is resolved aka could be years from now.
That's really disheartening :((
I'm being trying to quit porn for years, this cycle never ends!!!
***** FOCUSING ON avoidance is actually counter-productive. Rather, one should focus on acquiring new habits that simply push away the old crap. Think of this with me, if you decided with supreme determination to ... 1. ride a bike EVERY DAY for one hour , 2. Study a foreign language EVERY DAY for one hour... would not this mean that you have 2 less waking hours that you would divert into the PMO ?
adelRX7 7 you are stucked in the Avoidance cycle. Your brain Number one priority is to form habit it doesnt depends if its good or bad. As long as your brain forms habits it can work against you and the reason you are stucked in the avoidance cycle is because its gives you quick relieve whenever you give in to Break free from this cycle you need to know how your own human decision system works in other to know how i suggest you should try out The Candeo Program its full of educative information and other tools they help you with in other to break free from unwanted sexual behavior. Google Candeo program Online and they can help you and you will receive real lasting changes from that program not only from porn but your overall self improvement
***** Breathing techniques against stress are very effective against porn cravings, I strongly recommend them.
Quetzalcoatl™ Breathing techniques are great for channeling the sexual energies released in orgasm, but you have to learn to aim those energies with positive intention, rather than negative.
Go 7 days, only masturbating without porn, after 7 days try to go without both. Create two counters, one for porn and one for jacking off, try to extend your counter for "porn-free" for a week or two then you will have something that you won't want to lose. Your brain will also start to change since porn is the real culprit not masturbation.
He really gave a Lil Wayne quote in a Ted talk 🤣
he had to for the culture😭
amazing video man. You are the best.
That moment when you wear t-shirts all the time and suddenly you've been asked to give a TED talk
Keep up the good work.
I'm stopping today. wish me luck. I've been watching these videos for motivation
You can do it👍🏼 We can defeat it.
Same
who else wants to iron his shirt for him?
Haha. Dude I thought I was the only one.
+shaq santiago The salesperson told Jack that it was a wrinkle-free shirt that was ready-to-go out of the package. Guess it was too late and there were more pressing things on Jack's mind by the time he found out the TRUTH about the shirt.
+Brian Gabriel it's fresh out of the bag
+shaq santiago First thing I noticed. I am having to listen to the audio instead of watching because my OCD is going crazy.
+shaq santiago who cares
Almost 6 Years of NoFap, i've made some video's about it how it changed my life. Best choise ever i've made in my life.
Hey Thomas 😁 Thank you so much.
Why?
All these porn lovers in the comment section unable to accept the fact that porn is bad for them. So sad.
Addiction complex, they end up believing what they're doing is good for them, just because they need it.
You do not understand. We have good time here. A lot of fun.
I love these types of videos
day 30 today, proud i made so first steps
This is really good. #thanks
We'll beat this together
You have superb editing skills.
Thanks for the quote!
Keep it up! I love it a lot. Keep uploading this kind of awesome videos.
God this guy was very nervous. I hope he gets into stand up. EDIT: that lil wayne reference was gold.
Great video Jack, thank you.
Greg West JACK-THE-BIGMAC SAYS: DON'T JACK IT, ATTACK IT
You're a really good editor.
Haven’t watched it in months. Plan on never watching it again
Am with you brother
Today is my first day doing the NoFap✌🏻, wish me good luck guys!🥳
Aight man its been 3 months or so, how you holding up?
I lasted 1 month and a half and fell again, but I already started again
@@juliocesarrendon1813 Well we all have our slip ups just gotta get back up, my goal for now is about 2 weeks and hopefully farther!
Give me the strength to hold it upto 1wk at least 🙏🏽😭😭
@@abhayxo try don't watch any anime at all (if you're Otaku), this could help!
Try filling your free time by watching (the journey of certainty) playlist, and reading (Sabighat) book,, this was working with me, I hope it helps you
these vids are always awesome xD
coooool video man, thumbs up
Seriously I want to iron his shirt. 😭 Thank you for the great message tho 👍😘
Do you know series named (the journey of certainty)? I hope you search for it and (women in depth) at the same channel
Also, a book named (Sabighat) which is available in google for free
This man speaks at 2x
This man is correct!!
nothing but the best
Fortify is a great resource for breaking porn addictions as well
Thank you !!
Total respect
I don't think that he talks to fast. He just has a lot to say and says it.
He made some very interesting and troubling points.
I couldn't talk that fast if I tried.
He probably trained as an auctioneer
Esse é um tema que me interessa e merece ser estudado por todos nós, para termos consciência da indústria que estamos movendo ao assistirmos a esses vídeos. Quem quiser saber mais de uma maneira fácil e descontraída, tem um vídeo que o Maurício Meirelles postou que se chama "Os bastidores e malefícios dos vídeos adultos". Esse vídeo expandiu a minha mente, espero que chegue a mais pessoas.
Keep it up!
Great talk
How are you not famous yet? I love these!
Finally a speech I only have to speed up a little bit :)
awesome videos dude
how conveniently he leaves out what happens on the 8th day. while yes, testosterone increases 45% on the 7th, the numbers plummet very sharply the following day. the window actually varies depending on the person, but it's between 7 to 10 days. instead of touting hormonal fluctuations, what he should be doing is explaining the rewiring of the neural pathways. it takes months, not days or weeks. the good news is that those structural abnormalities can be reset to factory settings due to its remarkable plasticity.
Johnny trueee
Regarding this logic about testosterone - then catolic priests should have testosterone level 45000% (in fact, they should contain almost nothing else than testosterone).
@@mladendelic7284 why is that? You are making a huge assumption about CP's
How many months?
We talk here in the comment section, anonymously on the internet, but not in real life. This already is part of the problem I guess.
Any germans here btw?
by far the coolest channel on youtube
yfyyyiiii
Internet is the problem and the solution
It's sword with two sides!
You are the one who is controlling it.
Before internet people had magazines and cinemad and video cassettes
Internet Is not the problem.absolutely..
Good balanced talk. Good jokes. Convincing argument. Thank you!
You are brilliant! :]
Nice Videos. man, never stop please :)
he makes good points but he needs to slow down his speech. he comes off of too nervous!
He sounds like a porn addict.
Sociopathos fr
Anyone else think the video was sped up about 50%? Dang that guy can talk fast! He shares a good message, albeit somewhat repetitive of Gary Wilson's TED talk about Your Brain on Porn. But I'm with him, all the way! I'm two years into recovery and so glad I made the change! Life is so much better not being a slave to pixels on a screen and an obsessional habit that commanded my every thought. Plus I'm saving a ton of money on tissues and lotion!
From what I gather from your comment, you have been obsessive and the change was good for you.
And now, by inductive reasoning you assume that everyone is in the same situation. They aren't.
Good work..
GREAT VIDEO
On X1.5,I see Rap god playing
this dude unwrapped that shirt backstage and put it on
Thank-you ☀💕
Im with you
He is unusually self-confident, not to mention a fast talker.
Quetzalcoatl For the former, this is more of "Reddit"-psychology haha.
adelRX7 You can get that kind of self-confidence with heavy doses of caffeine.
Quetzalcoatl Fair enough, I know this caffeine deal :-)
Quetzalcoatl Smart kid no doubt

awesome talk, but I have a question...(I know pornogrophy is bad and it causes a lot of issues) but my question is, only pornogrophy is bad? or the masturbation itself is bad too? and causes issues? if someone knows the answer pls tell me, thank you
im also finding answers
it's the whole act. Looking at it does have effects on your brain (atleast subconsciously).
Try to do it moderately. Maybe it is not so harmful. Anyway, do not put too much pressure on you. You could start being nervous and start talking fast.
Great talk with a ton of important information and valid talking points as well as encouragement. But what I loved most was your brand new blue shirt with the creases from the package all over it.
this is underrated ❤
Please pray for me, I’ve been off for about 3 weeks but I’m still so tempted and I feel stuck please help
I am praying for you. I understand the struggle. Hang in there!!
Don't give up, you can man!
Any update?
he talks kinda fast
lowering the speed to 0.75 omg now I'm back seeing life with the clarity of PMO-free life again
I didn’t even realize this was my city until halfway through the title.
That shirt is fresh from the pack, man! F-resh! 😂
It is really bad, I’m addicted
Genial, parabéns.
noFap hard mode. Power to us regaining our natural livelihood!
what is hard mode?
lol hardmode is the only way to go, easymode is just bullshit
Watching this video on 0.75×
Ive lost so many important things thanks to porn....... Oh the dire straits
this video should get more views!! NoFab movement!! :)
