I would rather be single forever and have sweet female friendships than EVER date a porn/sex addict again.

I made a promise to myself that if I get into a relationship and I find out my man has even the tiniest bit of a porn addiction. I am breaking up with him. I don’t care if we’re like 10 years married. Because if it’s cheating to accept nudes from a girl, you know in person, how is it not cheating to view nudes of a random woman…

I feel like this implies that some of these men were lwk indoctrinated or groomed. like I’m still not gonna be friends with them, but they’re indicative of a cultural issue

Yes! Don’t let anyone try to convince you that you should accept porn addiction, especially given that the industry profits off of trafficking and violence. It also literally changes the brain chemistry of its consumers to constantly seek novelty so that they no longer find their real partners attractive. We don’t have to accept this!

If you just start dating someone and they are addicted it is possible for recovery i wouldnt break up with someone right off the bat for that. Its if you have a conversation about how it makes you uncomfortable and set a strict boundary and then they break it that i would say break up. My current bf didnt realize he had one till we had a conversation about it and when i said i wasnt comfortable with him watching it he stopped immediately.

I gave mine so many chances and he just got better at hiding it eventually. But I got tired of finding out that he was lying to me over and over again

This is exactly why I will not tolerate it at all because it is an addiction just like anything else and I just don’t want to date an addict, call me a bad guy, but it’s not my place to fix men’s issues

It is absolutely a larger consequence of the way the porn industry preys on boys, girls, men, and women. However, I think it is possible to empathize with men who developed porn addictions as children while acknowledging that a relationship with any addict can be incredibly harmful for the other person and sometimes traumatizing.

I’m just in general sick of that nonsensical comparison because men will literally associate women who read stories such as like twilight fanfictions to them watching 30+ hours worth of degenerate and graphic sexual content. WTF
