That's what my teachers told me.
Let me tell what they said:
"Reading/watching anything that relates to porn, sex, rape, etc.. may cause some serious damage. There is a chemical that simulates your brain, giving it an addiction that could be more threatening than drugs. Just like how we're addicted to the internet could be the same with things you look at everyday"
... yeah, I don't know anymore ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
Its a concept about the overuse of any particular thing. Without proper moderation, people willingly become addicted to forms of entertainment and it can be ruining if its the only stimulus they bother with. It can have negative social and health consequences, as does anything dealing with addiction and overuse of anything. Without the disciple of control there are tons of stories out there of kids becoming addicted to the internet that they will literally spend all day on the computer without a step of exercise and other forms of stimulus for their bodies.
I've even known a few people growing up who have just taken the "easy" route in life and have done nothing to improve themselves or gain a skill. They just sit in front of a computer watching anime/youtube/anything and waste themselves away. Completely neglecting their health or studies. Most of them have dropped out of college to continue on with their bum life and honestly it's just ruined them. No motivation what so ever, and only exist to enjoy themselves. They've lived without balance and without disciple. Failing to even socialize with others around them they've lost many basic skills of vivacity. But this concept comes from poor habits of addiction.
It's just that porn/erotica can be an easy thing to be addicted to because it releases "reward" chemicals in the brain that make people feel good. For some it's porn, for others it's food. Even things like stealing or fighting are forms of addictions.
The extremes will always have consequence.
Live like the olden Greeks, with moderation, balance, and spending equal amounts of times exercising as you are studying or relaxing.
People must maintain a sound foundation of knowledge and strength, with the capacity to live and experience their fullest potentials.
At least you're willing to realize it.
So many people just close their eyes and cover their ears when possibilities and flaws are pointed to them. Comfort is the enemy of success and that fact can be seen anywhere. Tons of people are uncomfortable about their well-beings but are damned to do anything about it.
Let's put brains in cells! Lock them up!
I'm bored all the time. Not even the almighty yaoi can conquer me.
I'm going to draw an extra pair of nipples on myself.
Ta chaps.
tbvh now that you've mentioned it, before i started reading yaoi, i've always seemed to be able to communicate with people more better and i was able to think faster. but right after that, i had a feeling that my thinking process slowed down and my grades immediately dropped. now, i find it so much harder to talk to people and usually go back to reading yaoi to make me feel better about myself :(
apparently based on some research, pornoghrapy is the same as Visual Cocain, when you read or watch explicit content, it would change the brain structure that control emotion and psychological response slowly, thats why you still smart I think. I dunno myself, since the article include reasearch from psychiatrist, neurologist, I think it might be true.
Why do they sound like me a lot?
yes, the dopamine, and there is some protein released that could damage the brain when we become addicted to pornoghrapy. I do agree though, after reading a lot of porn, it seem I become disensitized, when I make out with my Bf, after a long foreplay, I still didnt feel aroused considering it was my first time, I never come even once, dunno if his technique was lousy or my expectation about sex is too high, well some people said that real sex life is totally different from porn.
you just slapped on my face with your comment, but since I lost any kind of motivation, it would take a lot more beating to wake me up from this coma...
but it only need one Zaria graphic works to make me cum. LOL. from his way to lure me in, he is a playboy and had a lot of experience with women, I now he just wants my body, but I keep coming back to him not bcause I love him, I just want to see if the sex would feel better after the second or third time but no it doesnt, it doesnt feel that great like we just stop in the middle and he smoking right after. thats why I like reading smutty yaoi, I'm sexually frustrated, and it has what a woman wish for.
I used to be smart too, but now I keep forgetting things, I just blame it on my age though, and recently I keep forgetting how to spell some word, I even need to check it on google.
Well I prefer yaoi over any drugs :D well I am remembering from my school time that porn releases somekind of hormon like sex that is good for your body, like it helps falling a sleep easier and your all and all much happier and relaxed and more satisfied with yourself :) sorry I am not sure but there is no way its bad for you. Well maybe its little addictive :0
I just read an article about how pornography can damage your brain cell and function and is 5 times more dangerous than drugs. now, I'm getting worried since I read yaoi almost everyday not to mention I watch gay porn too.
