Without porn you would have been addicted to lingerie catalogues and failing that of course real p*y in the form of endlessly chasing girls and or prostitutes bringing financial ruin upon yourself.

Porn is just how sex drive manifests itself for men (we are visual creatures) in a frictionless world where there are 5bn cameras in our pockets.

There is no shame in going down because of sex drive, it has been engrained in our brains during the past 100 million years

You may be right lol. Honestly I hate my sex drive sometimes. Sure it's useful from an evolutionary perspective, but for me personally it does no good

It's also useful from a relaxation and performance perspective.

Every time you rub one out you give your brain the illusion that you passed your genes so you go through life much more relaxed because it's an orgy (pun intended) of 'mission accomplished' banners within the brain.

At least for me that's how I explain post nut clarity and relaxation.

yea i'm not sure having 8 hour long marathon porn sessions improves my performance or relaxation

though like you said earlier, I bet if it wasn't for porn I'd have multiple unwanted children or multiple STDs
