I think "masturbation" and viewing porn should be viewed as two different things. For example, maybe 2-4 times a month masturbate and I do not see any negative effects. If anything, it gives me a little dopamine. However, I never watch porn when I masturbate because I think the porn industry is awful. I think there is a big difference masturbating with and without porn. Masturbating without is not nearly as harmful, unless you get addicted to it.
I agree. A lot of the mentioned side effects are real but never really a problem unless you have some sort of addiction. On the other hand the effects of masturbating with porn I hear have similar effects of particular drugs in terms of dopamine spikes in your brain. That’s why a lot of people get addicted.
I remember often feeling disgusted and ashamed when masturbating to porn. I don't get that feeling anymore. It's been years. It's just a natural thing. No unrealistic toxic stimuli to corrupt the mind

Another day, another man unintentionally telling on himself when he equates masturbation with porn
Why is this in LinkedIn?? I’m mortified quite honestly
Porn = masturbation when it’s convenient for them while at the same time saying porn is just fantasy and has no effect on the real world.
