makeshift said:Internet porn is an extremely easy and quick fix. Having a woman in your bedroom, however, requires significantly more energy to arrange and execute. First, you gotta find prey that's ready and willing to have sex with you, which can be difficult enough. She can't be an entire whore because you obviously don't want STDs. Then you have to make sure sex is enjoyable enough for her so that she'll want to do it again with you or so she'll mention how great in bed you are to her friends. Then you have to cuddle and deal with the social aspect of it all. It can be exhausting if you're not terribly genetically gifted.
But is it worth it?
Do any of you find it true what the author is talking about, regarding what is now required to be stimulated? I know there are some men on this board that find sex boring. Do you think porn-viewing can have this effect on you? Perhaps conditioning the brain to only be particularly aroused by 2d images on a computer monitor?

duendy said:i see it that unless its children being exploited that adults can do porn. why not? i think it shocks many peple because they have hangups about such uninhibited sesuality
it is to be known tat Christianity particularly has deep fears about sexuality. in their theological writings over the millenia, SEX has been THEmost feared, taboo, and persecuated 'sin'.....Andit is plain to see that the Church's persecution of 'hertics' involved some of the grossest forms of sadism ever to be recorded!
I should imagine, doing porn, if you can mange being watched by cameras, sound crws etd may be fun, in tat you can be prt of set fantasies, and just do what you love. sex
oh pulleeeeze. does it heck. read what i said above. please explain..?finewine said:Well, I will disagree with you Duendy about Christianity and sex. The whole book of "Song of Solomon" is about sex and the beauty and pleasure of it.
me)))many people cite Hebrewism as being open to the sensual, witout also noticing or including that this openess for te sensual was reall for the MALE rather than the emals, AND was for procreative sexuality. remember we are talking about the patriarchs. they that , in their bible, call the Rites of the Gddess, where sexual orgia was honoured, between all sexes, and non-procreative--as being 'Abomination'!
Sex is not taboo in Christianity. It is all you have said in organized religion of man which takes the truth of Christianity and twists it and makes it into something that only the heart of man made of it, NOT what GOD intended it to be.
me))haha...;isten up. 'God' is invention of your very faith. so what you claim is non-senseless
In Christianity as GOD intended it, sex between a man and woman is celebrated and embraced. It is just done within the boundries of marriage.
me)))exactly. in the 'BOUNDARIES of what your authoritarian belief tells the reat is should be...errr misionary position/ just between married popl. NOT go forbid same sex...ohhhhh noooo. see, nutin's changed. and hey. the founder of your religion, St Paul wasn't hot on sex at ALL at all
Porn is detrimental simply because it changes the brain chemistry in the same way that heroine does. It becomes a form of addiction with all the same physiological and mental cravings and ramifications on relationships and work productivity that any addiction will produce.
me))ohhh so does joggin change brain chemistry, andeating, shoppin, and fallin in love andreadin. ie., everything changes mindbody chemistry as we exprience life. s whatis it your saying?....actually in its poisitve side porn has LIBERATED many peopl. go and talk to older generations and ask them what they knew about sex when they werre young. tey usually answer--not much. efen when they got married. how sad and pathetic is THAT??....that is the effect of your religion !
Porn limits the imagination of the mind which is the most fertile playground of sexual fantasies.

I will reiterate that Christianity is not a religion. I will reiterate that religion is man's attempt to bring GOD down to man's finite level. Christianity is GOD's way of being man up to GOD's level.Sex is not taboo in Christianity. It is all you have said in organized religion of man which takes the truth of Christianity and twists it and makes it into something that only the heart of man made of it, NOT what GOD intended it to be.

Paul was not the founder of Christianity!! Heaven forbid he should be alive and hear you say that.In Christianity as GOD intended it, sex between a man and woman is celebrated and embraced. It is just done within the boundries of marriage.

Let me tell you what the older generation knew about sex when they first tried it. They knew as much about it as you did. The only difference was instead of having multiple partners they stayed with one. In staying with one there was no fear of expectations or rejection and so the focus could be towards learning how to pleasure the other person with greater adour and finesse instead of bouncing from one to the next and starting all over again.Porn is detrimental simply because it changes the brain chemistry in the same way that heroine does. It becomes a form of addiction with all the same physiological and mental cravings and ramifications on relationships and work productivity that any addiction will produce.

good fo you. but somepeople DO want it, and thus there is supply and demandfinewine said:Rome persecuted the Christians because of their inaccurate perception that Christ and his followers would be a threat to Ceasar.
Christ talked about a new kingdom, but Christianity was not begun for political reasons. Christianity is the redemptive relationship that GOD established with man at Christ's cruxification and resurrection.
me))of COURSE it was started by COnstantine for political reasons. yu are naive. you need to read up some history dude
There is no duality between GOD and the devil.
me))yes there is, itis called 'ultimate dualism' (Alan Watts)
Lucifer was a CREATED angel.
Created to protect GOD's holiness. Lucifer was the most beautiful and best of all the created angels. Lucifer said, I will be like GOD and became what we now know as the devil, the symbol of evil.. but what really is the evil???
It is the rebellion of the creation against the creator. There is no ultimate duality unless you are under the same delusion as Lucifer that you will be like GOD.
me))you are a literalist. having no seeming understanding of te way patriarchal mythology was creaed, in metaphor, wrdplay, puns, transliterations etc etc etc. hen you do you will find tat 'Lucifer' 'fallen agels', 'Original Sinn' and the like are referring to psychedelic fungi/plants. the patriarchy were ferociously against sacraments that had been used by Indigenous Hoddess poples since primeval times. for your sky-god as his inventors write down in no uncertain terms is---a 'Jealous God'! and so one 'must' obey 'orrrrELSE!!!!!!!'
There is so much misinformation online about many things, duendy.
I would check your references and sources more accurately.
me)))hah.......more so you! i'm fine finewine
You remind me of the song by John Fogerty "I Saw It on TV"
I know it's true, oh so true, 'cause I saw it on TV.
In this case 'cause I saw it on Google.'
me)))taunt yer self with ya put-down songs fellah
but back to pornography:
The original post quoted an article titled Pornography Destroyed Me.
Now the original question was how has pornography changed your life.
Some of us ignored that question and started talking about pornography in general terms and changed the question, including myself.
so how has it changed my life?
It can ruin lives because it is addictive. Like addictions you begin to look for that next high and the law of diminishing returns kicks in and you go on to more and more kinky stuff to get that buzz.
Now, you made an assumption that because I was a Christian, I am against it when in fact my argument against it was not 'religious' at all.
My argument against it is purely medical biochemistry of the process of addictions
and my experience with pornography and its limitations and expectations it placed on my mind as to what sex was and what men and women want in a sexual encounter.
My mind is much more creative. Why would I want to dumbify it and pay money to do so???
I do not find it liberating. I find it destructive. I find it boring.
I much prefer the real thing.
If I can't have the real thing, I prefer what I can visualize in my mind.
