Porn addicting?
 

Is it me or is porn addicting?

having the TittyBoard leave fixed me right

it's you, and about 10 million other guys :p

Id say closer to 3 billion.

I'm addicted.. sort of... maybe it's getting better now that I don't have my own computer.. and it gets better when I have a girlfriend... but damnit, I look at way too much porn! I swear to bog, I've seen 90% of all the porn that exists on the internet =(

It can be addicting, if you let it. I'm a binge porno peruser (aka, pervert). Every once in a while I'll just get this mind set that I have to see it, read it. It lasts for a day or two and then things return to normal. Kind of like being a binge drinker I guess.

I guess I let it. Just cant stay away! Maybe I have to much time on my hands.

is the porn addictive, or is it the mentality searching for porn?

i personally go in phases, like dano - i'm right now in the "take it or leave it, usually leave it" phase, but i'm sure that eventually i'll get a hankerin' for some b00bies....


mmm, b00bies......

Porn can be addicting. Just as addicting as cocaine, alcohol, etc. It's real.

I was addicted to downloading parts of a series for about an hour everyday from various freeporn sites. But then a couple of weeks ago my PC got fuct up, so I couldn't do it anymore. Now that its up (My PC, not my cockler), I haven't downloaded shit. It broke the cycle...for now. All the kleenex boxes in my house are getting a break until I have that urge again.

edit: I just remembered...I did stop downloading new ones.....I still reuse old ones....so yeah, I guess I'm still addicted.

The term 're-use' just made me laugh. As though the porn was somehow spoiled after one use, like after you've jerked to it, the women are wearing parkas the next time.

It can be addicting. With me it goes in phases. It really depends on the porn stars I'm interested in. If they don't have anything new for a while then I usually don't download more until they have some fresh videos. Also I'm really picky about my porn. It has to be quality stuff. Lately there hasn't been much quality so I haven't been downloading at all.

All I know is that I need a fix.

I don't understand the term 'quality porn' :confused:

Quality porn for me is hot women/teens having great sex on camera and look like they're enjoying it. No smut for me please.

i work at a computer store so i dont have to download any porn. i have a huge collection on my computer and have only download a little.... but as a number of others i go in stages.

I rarely, if ever, actively search for porn anymore. I grew up reading my dad's Playboys. I still have a subscription to Playboy. I actually do read it for the articles. The women are nice but are of secondary concern anymore. I used to actively look at porn on the Internet, but after a time, I got saturated and kind of bored by it. I'm much more turned on by seeing a nice woman in person than any image I see on the computer. That doesn't mean it isn't nice for a late night masturbation session if I'm turned on and the wife is asleep, but it isn't something I would say I'm addicted to anymore.

Funny, when I look at Porn, I get other things on my hands... (Sorry, I just couldn't resist:))

And how can 3 billion horny guys be wrong????

It is addicting to some people yes. I personally dont find it addicting in the sense that staring at it just to get off. Myself and my other half will look at it just to give each other visual ideas of what would be fun to try and what would physically kill us.

Well, theoreticaly, one can become addicted to anything. Addiction can be physical, psychological, or a combination of both.

I once knew a guy who was addicted to ChapStick of all things! He couldn't go 1/2 hour without applying another coat.

....and I thought I was of the precious few...glad to know its some-what normal :D

It can be. I've never personally been so addicted that I will freak if I don't get my "fix." Though I am sure it can be just as addicting for people as any other drug or anything. Really though you just have to get out...play a sport or do something to get your mind off of it if you are totally bent on porn.

porn is like crack... touch it once and yer hooked for life and will even sell personal shit to get more of it...

"I'll trade you a microwave far your new girls gone wild dvd"

lolol


but yeah.. I'll admit... I'm addicted to porn... I'm in the process making a compiliation of the "we live together" series.. :rolleyes:

It isn't that easy. Have you ever seen a recovering druggy or alcoholic? With all the withdrawal that they go through, etc? Porn is worse, IMO. Because it's free. And easier to hide.

Ok, just to bring everyone back down to earth:

Addiction: n., the fact or process of being addicted, especially the process of taking a drug habitually and being unable to give it up without incurring adverse effects.

The above is from the Canadian Oxford Dictionary.

Now, before you say "What an asshole" and dismiss this post, I actually have a point other than being a word nerd.

When we call habits (shopping, television viewing, porn consumption) or compulsions (cleaning the house 5 times in a row, or the above mentioned persons use of Chap-Stik) an addiction we do three things:

1) Surrender all of our power to make a choice to change our behaviour. We become helpless, because, after all, this is now an "addiction" and therefore a medical condition beyond individual control or responsibility.

2) Misdiagnose and hence mistreat real conditions. "Chap-Stik addict" instead of someone showing signs of an obsessive-compulsive disorder.

3) Cheapen, and ultimately render meaningless a valuable word that properly describes a real and devastating problem - addiction.

Rant done. Word nerd hereby retreats to the safety of Canada.

Intresting question, yeh, sure it is, but it is just because of where you are if you ask me. If you put yourself in a bar if your an alchoholic, your going to drink yourself silly. If your addicted to porn, you put yourself in front of your computer when your horny. TADA! you get the porn!

yeah. it's addicting.
want to read a few things on how bad porn is for you? PM me. I'll send you bucketfulls.

I rarely spend much time to search for porn, It is not even close to addicting for me

If I want to get off I'll usually read an erotic story (way better in my opinion), I also like some softcore sensual porn with just one beautiful girl showing off her stuff and/or masturbading.

I dislike all 'hardcore porn' with them saying stuff like "fuck my tight pussy with your hard cock now!", "let me swallow your cock after its been in my ass!" etc with no love to it. I can't stand it, ugh.

hrm..

yes, porn can be 'addicting', psycologically.
it can cause all sorts of problems, etc...

does it have to? No. of course not.
Is it bad because of its 'addictiveness'?
imo, No.

it's all in how/why one 'uses' it.

now, i don't think *i* would ever get 'addicted' to the porn itself..
...but i do get a bit obsessive/compulsive with my collecting of it. :crazy:


mhm...to each their own.
some don't understand the concept of a good action movie or country song or whatever else.
a simple matter of personal taste :)

I work in the industry. I am not addicted.

Perhaps it's education.

I'll tell you what's a worse addiction than porn... speeding in your car. One can arrouse you, the other can kill you.

I get highly aroused going fast in my car.

I get semi aroused looking at porn.

I rather have the real thing anyday.

Back when I was in 8th grade I had already accumlated 10 gig of porn (which is a lot now but was a fuckin SHITLOAD then)

My kinda girl. :thumbsup:

When I was younger.. 14 - 18 or so, I looked at porn all the time.. and lemme tell ya, it really was a lot of time on a 33.6 kbps connection! I'd say around 1996 I had filled up my family's computer hard drive about 30% with porn. (I made them into zip files, and then renamed the zip files to something else so nobody would know.)

Anyway, since then, (I am 21 now) I don't care about porn anymore. I feel desensitized. I now have 360 GB of storage on my desktop, and ZERO porn. Though, it's hard for me to get off on porn now. It is easier with a real girl (or remembering a time with a real girl) than imagining with a porn star.

I'd say it's more of a hobby than addiction.

I enjoy speeding AND looking at porn, wouldn't say either is an addiction though, you would have to be pretty fanatical about either one for it to be deemed an addiction I think.

The TittyBoard makes it easy to catch a daily ganders.

I have to admit that I think I am addicted to porn. I have so much it's insane. I'm talkin DVD's, VCD's, CD's full of avi's & mpg's, and a huge collection of pictures on my hard drive and cd's. I find it hard to get rid of porn after I watch it. I have this mentality of where I feel that I'll want to watch it again later so I just have to burn it or keep it on my hard drive.

I saw someone above mentioned erotic stories and yeah those are hot; I read those too. I'm a pornophile. I mean, if only you could've seen me after I met Ron Jeremy last week... *smh* lmao.

It's just as real as a cocaine addiction. But you don't really comprehend it as something real until you experience it or someone you know does.
