Now where’s the “I don’t believe you” gif?
a better listener
Man, I hate jerking off so much that I literally can’t hear women. Abstinence has really improved my checkout time at Albertsons.
Why are people posting this shit on LinkedIn? That place was such a good idea for business contacts and networking, when did it turn into Facebook?
When Microsoft bought it.
When business majors found it
No fun! Only work!
Or just don’t feel shame about it
Only Linked In could turn “not wanking” into a hobby/business.
#pornsober, no delf-censorship. I’m against porn and all censorship!
Needs more screenshot. At least show the downvotes on one of them so I can know what to think.
People can get addicted to anything. People literally get addicted to water and drink so much it dilutes the sodium in their body.
If you are going to ban porn because one freak spanks his monkey nonstop then you need to ban water as well because people can actually die from those reduced sodium levels … but won’t die from a monkey spanking porn marathon.I hear oxygen is toxic and dissolves you from the insides. We should ban that too.
Reminder, that porn addiction was made up by evangelists to push the narrative, that porn is always bad and must be banned.
This narrative, alongside with the rampant sexism and transphobia, caused a tremendous harm to my psyche, a lot more than what porn actually caused to me in my whole life (sore frenulum, and maybe that time could have been “spent better”). Humans are naturally hard wired to need it, unless they’re aces, and similarly to those who are not as much into it, there are those who need sexual things much more.
Porn addiction is as real as any other addiction, however it is not like you are getting hooked on porn after seeing one titty for a single frame.
Anything that provides pleasure and triggers the reward center of the brain can be addictive. There’s no need to single out porn in that discussion.
Bingo. Just like video games, television/movies, work, collectibles, exercise, and house pets, any activity can become problematic, but it’s not the activity itself that’s the problem. The issue is the underlying pathology that drives someone to unhealthy levels of engagement.
It just occurred to me how willing society is to overlook problematic behavior if it’s “productive”. 80 hours a week working or making art? Likely to be accepted. 80 hours a week spent collecting figurines or working on your train set? Whoa there, crazy conductor!
Even if we assume that porn/sex can be addictive, maybe it could create some habitual type situation, there are still these issues:
- Other non-chemical addictions such as gambling are not being near as close stigmatized, only video gaming comes kind of close, and only because the very same people can blame mass shootings on it.
- A lot of non-chemical addictions can be overcome with the smallest of willpower. A week later I deleted Xitter from my phone I barely checked the desktop version too, and I only have Facebook because family and friends. My country Hungary made tens of thousands of gamblers quit after they banned slot machines from pubs (rare Fidesz W, even if done to drive people into casinos).
- Even actual chemical addictions like tobacco and alcohol is sidelined, if not outright encouraged, because “muh nashunal treshurs” like in Hungary.
- Porn addiction is often described as just as bad if not worse than cocaine, as a scare tactic. I’m a habitual consumer of porn, but there were times I could not get access to it and were fine, and the times I wasn’t fine was due to I couldn’t masturbate at all (which nowadays includes anal masturbation too), and it just seems like I have a higher drive than what other guys should have.
Translation: I jerk off in the bathroom at work because that’s the only place my wife can’t catch me.
I legit feel bad for people who can’t enjoy porn with their significant other. The sex must be awful.
Idk man, my SO needs porn to have a plot to enjoy it and I’m just not prepared to consider the motivation of the actors and actresses on the screen and get lost in the story. That doesn’t mean we don’t still know how to enter each other’s cheat codes, we don’t need visual aids for that.
Good for him, but… Why on earth would anyone post that on LinkedIn?
Because that guy is scamming other people to sell a course “how to quit porn” for thousands of dollars
and also pay for it to be Promoted
Either he’s selling something, or his wife made him do it
He’s selling his “services” for treating “sexual addiction”
Nothing solves a sexual addiction like an encounter with this man.
Just another grifter

Scamming guilty Christians out of money. Name a better grift.
Plenary Indulgence. Oh wait lol
Makes more sense now
Bro gooned out so hard it became a business opportunity 😂
So you’re saying there’s hope?
I mean, does that face scream hope to you?
It screams something that’s for sure.
I think that face is usually the one getting screamed at. To stay away.
Founder of Valor Recovery
Not “good for him”. Religious nuttery in full display.
He’s trying to scam ppl out of money. Why else does anyone post shit on LinkedIn?
Is this not a mocking meme with that adulterous couple (a ceo and HR manager) that got discovered at a Coldplay concert? It looks just like them to me but I’m faceblind so I might be wrong…?
It’s an ad and the guy runs some kind of porn recovery program.
Wouldn’t you rather hire a guy who you know
paid to tell people heisn’t cranking his hog to pictures of fat tiddies?Depends on his reasoning. If it’s to sexually repress himself for religious or pseudo science reasons then no I wouldn’t.
Isn’t that religious discrimination
Maybe. I don’t care. I’m just giving my opinion not actually making a hiring decision. I don’t want to work with religious nutjobs. If your god doesn’t want you to partake in your natural bodily functions they designed maybe you should consider if they’re actually worth your worship and stop feeling guilty for physical sensations you can’t control.
Sex is okay within marriage. Just like how cutting is okay if it’s a vegetable and not a human being.
Sex is okay within marriage.
It’s okay out of marriage too. It’s a natural act that brings a lot of happiness to people. Unless you buy into a religion that makes you feel shame for something your body is made to do.
Just like how cutting is okay if it’s a vegetable and not a human being.
I don’t even understand how this is supposed to relate to having sex out of wedlock.
Having sex is a natural act. Just like chopping meat. But there’s a moral way to do things.
Finally we have reached the reddit reposting stage of Lemmy
this isn’t reddit? where am i
Which means soon we will have “Newsweek Writes a Headline Article Based on a Random Fucking Drama Post” stage and we can all monetize and walk away.
Not me, I watch porn when I feel like it. My wife knows about it and its totally fine because we’re adults and know what all those sex parts look like and what they do.
They’ve gentrified r/nofap
Always has been. It always felt like a Christian beachhead into internet culture, very reminiscent of church run queer aa groups, but like, the kind where they wind up trying to get you to join because you enjoy socializing at gay bars.
It always felt like a Christian beachhead into internet culture
That is because it was. So much internet bro culture is deeply rooted in US religious nuttery.
Holy shit they did lol
