I feel like i jerk off too often and when I want to have sex I can’t because I was already hard earlier
This also really connects for me! I worried it should last forever!
Porn makes me feel pretty terrible after it and has done for years so it would be smart for me not to do it
I struggle with this as well, sometimes trying to remember porn scenes to maintain an erection during sex.
I watch porn because I know I will get an erection with it as we’re with a girl I might not and make my anxiety even worse
A female friend asked me recently if the penetration part of sex only lasted a few minutes for my partner and . She was relieved to know that too
I’ve basically learned that porn isn’t real
2-8 minutes… I guess I’ve been doing it wrong ![]()
2-8 mins seems realistic. But I always feel inadequate if I last that long
What I thought porn was a problem is more about why I am watching it vs. the actual act of watching it. It could be healthy but you need to know what is taking priority in your life and is it causing you not to do other important things in your life
Porn doesn’t make me feel guilty. I know it’s an act and rather not watch those high end porn with fake squirting etc. I do find that when you’re with a real person I want to get hard and stay hard with a person. In real life you can’t skip through pages of videos looking for what’s right. So, is porn de-sensitising me?
Maybe I shouldn’t be so ashamed of watching porn. Just gotta remember the reality
I think it’s easy to slip into comparison, thinking I should be able to do this or that. But in reality I need to remind myself that porn is often chopped up, cut together. If the actors don’t like each other or are surrounded by random camera men, it’s probably easy to last longer. And if not they probably just cut out all the accidental orgasms anyway.
I feel it as a release but I might try and get off not using porn and see if that is helpful and it is easy to compare bodies and performance it becomes the thing that most men can just have sex all the time and not need to think and it’s not just porn it’s tv too
I definitely aligned with the stress relief aspect. I get an urge to watch porn when I get stressed. It’s nice to know there’s a bodily reason for that.
I think the unrealistic presentation can definitely affect me subconsciously and put expectations on me that stress me out
its definetly a stress reliever method to not worry about problems
I stopped Watching porn (vidéo) and rely on other media such as writing and photo but doesn’t know if that,s affect me in the same way
I watch porn when I’m stressed. When something goes wrong it is a way to forget about that thing.
I learned that porn is just like a fast and furious movie. I did feel identified about how porn has affected my point of view about sex having to be perfect, last long and perfect just like the bodies.. its actually hard to share it but I so much appreciate having learned this
