Thanks for discussing this sensitive topic. As a 54yr old female, this doesn’t really apply to me personally, but good to hear what this next generation is going through. Really appreciate all your daily topics 🙏🏼
This was so difficult to get through. I stopped and cried several times. Brought up so many emotions. My partner left me for porn. He has a decades old stronghold that was hidden from me. Heartbreaking and life changing. 💔 Thank you, MP Gentleman for addressing this. Tbh there’s many times over the last two years of going through this that I’ve turned to you to remind me that there are men out there who take accountability and responsibility for themselves, their families and their bigger community.
So sorry to hear, thanks for sharing. Have you considered betrayal trauma therapy? It sounds like what you went through was rough and could use some compassionate and expert care.
@@sathiyasam2479 yes I worked with a CSAT as well as another trusted counselor to help me navigate the impact this had on me. The wounds are deep but I’m healing and changing.

People do not realize how feeding this behavior can truly impact their lives and decision making. In the moment to moment decisions made throughout one’s day, one will more impulsively choose one’s self over others…..I truly believe our most joyful moments in life come from connecting with and serving others, but this impacts that so much more than people realize. Keep talking about it, bros!
This was such a great episode, I struggled with this addiction for years. I haven't consumed it for almost 4 years now and it has completely changed my life for the better. I'm a better husband and father for sure, I can't even begin to explain how much better my life is since I quit. It's really awesome to see you guys using your platform to shine light on a very serious issue that men are facing today.
Wow I really didn't have a lot knowledge about this but im really glad I was able to watch this podcast get a new perspective and get more educated! Love you mind pump team💪
Mind Pump has helped get me back on the gym wagon and learned so much about nutrition especially. Such an important topic that our society seems to ignore or even view as healthy/normal behavior. Still hoping to get my first MAPS program but still budgeting equipment to build my home gym as I live in a rural area. Thanks for covering so many important topics and all the positivity.

There's an interesting connection between porn consumption and processed sugar consumption, one usually leads to the other and you end up in a vicious cycle
Absolutely man. So many of us are staring at screens from the moment we wake up, eating processed or high sugar content foods, consuming pornography…our days become cycles of keeping that dopamine hit going. And in the meantime, some really meaningful parts of our lives start to lose color and become more and more black and white. This is an issue and I’m glad our dudes are discussing it
This is one of the most in depth video you guys have ever created. Thank you for tackling this top. I've been listening to you guys for three 3 months now. Keep it up. This really hit home for me
You guys are awesome. Great reflection on various deep society topic. Love your show great for the Mind and for the Pump 💪 💪 💪. Listening everyday from Québec ! Keep up your good work. Would love to try one of your workouts plan someday !
This is great, however to some degree I'm not sure to agree or disagree. It seems that people don't want to live without drugs or addiction and that we naturally seek out higher levels of pleasure. A councilor told me "connection is the opposite of addiction" however in her class more than 80% of the people have kids and a spouse. Both men and women are continuing to seek out drugs and even connection outside their marriage.. it seems that's just what we do as people
Novelty for me would be the real experience... How does one fix this if you had social problems (especially in the romance department) since preschool?
I’m curious if the rise of violent porn is a reflection of a deeper experience, men in our culture, not feeling respected and needed by women. Therefore, they feel this by watching porn, where a man is powerful and strong and dominating. In essence, a lack a healthy model of male female relationship, where men are respected and honored, and so they find a substitute for that in pornography
This isn’t talked about enough! No other fitness podcast is talking about this stuff, which is why you guys are the best
I admire y’all for tackling this difficult subject. Respect.
Right !

Need more content like this. Social media has been one of the greatest perpetrators of sexual media in recent history. Hold the line Gents!
Great topic! This should be talked about more often. “Fast food intimacy…” great point!
You guys cover the most important topic with the best guests.
I bought the Muscle Mommy program and loving it so far 😊❤❤
Thank you so much for the tough conversations we have to have and address

Same goes with alcohol, weed, nicotine, gaming tbh

You have interviewed th most interesting people and referred me to some of the best podcasts, books and programs. Thank you
Defintely needed in this day and age. One of the worst addictions and very hard to kick.
Yeah it sure is. But not impossible either!
Jesus Christ set me free
This is an issue I've been struggling with for years and this video was extremely helpful.
I am so admired, it was so helpful ,l will come after 21 and 63 days to tell if i did succeed or not , thanks for you ,all GUYS 🙌♥️ , From INDIAN 🇮🇳
I LOVE this episode and information.. these facts explain ALOT
You guys are awesome. Great reflection on various deep society topic. Love your show great for the Mind and for the Pump 💪 💪 💪. Listening everyday from Québec ! Keep up your good work. Would love to try one of your workouts plan someday !
This is very eye-opening. Thank you so much for talking about this.
God I needed to hear this. I've always known this was an issue of mine. I'm gonna get started on this right away. Thx fellas.
Great show, guys! This is an important problem that people don't like to talk about. Thanks for discussing this.
Always great content!
This was a great episode… makes soooo much sense with some relationship challenges. Thank you!

Yes sir! Give me that program 😊
Absolutely loved this.
Great episode. I learned so many new things. You guys rock.
Novelty for me would be the real experience...
How does one fix this if you had social problems (especially in the romance department) since preschool?
Here we go
Thank you guys so much
Nothing scares the regime more that people kicking the porn habit
This episode and the last one you did with Ben greenfield are easily the best episodes
So glad you enjoyed it!
A lot of bias from the guest. Will not recommend. Next time bring a real scientist not someone who talk by none scientific data just emotion. 👎
I'd like to understand your point better. What makes you say that?
Thanks guys
I've always said 90% of people watch porn and the other 10% lie about it. 😂
Hah! Yes I've heard that one before. Well said.
That being said I congratulate you and your efforts on this difficult subject. Keep it up! I applaud you!!

Break free, why?? This shit lit

Cheers

Great episode. Thank you for discussing this!
