YouTube: Why I stopped watching porn: Ran Gavrieli at TEDxJaffa 2013
He explains this so much better than I can. This invades our life in every way whether we realise it or not.
It reminds me of a book I purchased on a whim many years ago called Centerfold Syndrome - How men can overcome objectification and achieve intimacy with women by Gary R Brooks. Very very interesting. I reckon his work has been undervalued...probably because it doesn't suit the commercial world. Distortion of the beautiful act of lovemaking is a money making industry.
But...we have all been complicit in allowing this. We sure have hit the bottom of the barrel when it comes to degradation of both sexes. Ah well, onwards and upwards, eh?
Extract:
"...In the latter half of this century (20th), however, this component of men's sexuality has been so exploited, distorted, and outrageously exaggerated that the emotional and sexual health of most contemporary men has been seriously compromised."
It is up to us as individuals to decide whether to support this industry in its many forms or not. I leave you to draw your own conclusions.
