Bingeing porn makes men lousy — and women rule — in bed: sex study

This is dire news for guys who regularly enjoy adult entertainment.

A new study has found frequent porn viewing can have disastrous effects on men’s sex lives — leaving them with low self-esteem, erectile dysfunction and an inability to satisfy their lovers.

The study, published last month in the journal Psychological Medicine, surveyed more than 20,000 French-speaking adults over a period of two years to determine the findings.

The survey didn’t define what constituted “frequent” porn use, but Salzman says everyone is different. He told The Post that, for some men, even 15 minutes of porn per day could be enough to pose a problem between the sheets.

Meanwhile, the Psychological Medicine study also surveyed thousands of women — and found the complete opposite when it comes to the fairer sex: The more frequently a woman watched porn, the more likely she was to experience an increase in sexual self-competence, functioning and satisfaction.

Researchers were unable to conclusively explain the reasons for this unexpected find but theorized it was due to the fact that women generally prefer softcore porn.

The study states that “porn can also be a source of threatening upward sexual comparisons, particularly for men. For instance, the frequency of porn use predicts penis size dissatisfaction among men.”

It adds: “Men watch more hardcore/paraphilic porn and less softcore/mainstream porn than women . . . which may be associated with different sexual comparison processes and sexual outcomes.”

Salzman told The Post that men often feel “inadequate” after repeated exposure to porn, which frequently features stars with large penises and gym-honed bodies.

“They start thinking ‘What’s wrong with me? Why don’t I look like [that]? Who’d want to have sex with me when everyone in the video looks so different?’ ” Salzman said of his clients.

This is very unsettling.

lol....French speaking men

They're all pu$$ies to begin with.

watch porn with your partner ftw

Sloots gonna Sloot

Yeah sure.

Lol, porncels on suicide watch

TL;DR Most men cannot separate fantasy from reality.

Camera tricks + large peen on screen = lol@dinkcel's self esteem

Does this mean porn isn't damaging to those with 8"+ dinks?

in b4 proundmanlet

I've been trying to dial back my porn intake lately. Srs. 41 here with an 8+ dink. Can't tell if I'm having any real issues but better err on the side of caution. And fukkk do I love porn

Not me, I may not be Dredd or Danny D, but I am the same size or bigger than most of the mopes in porn.

tbh it boosts my self esteem

i am no proudmanlet, but i agree with this

probably a correlative factor as well...

Men watching tons of porn likely are incels and not getting any, probably the beta soyboys of the world. Would imagine more porn also correlated to less muscle, increased fat, less in shape, etc etc but not causitive

Same time women who watch porn likely are the freak staceys with healthy sex lives and libidos as it is...and are generally happier and more self confident people in general

Weird. Porn has the opposite effect for me. It reassures me that I'm banging at my peak capacity knowing I can keep up with professionals. Cock looks just as juicy. Women cum just as loud.

Porn validates my confidence.

Sucks to suck I guess ?

ITT no one read the article.

"Kinky porn viewing" has a negative effect on men. Keep your kinks in the shared act and leave the gals to research.

What are the odds that I just watched an interview that discussed this last night? lol

M'kay, FWIW this was a good interview and the woman being interviewed has a substack about reactionary feminism. Some stuff she could be too liberal for a lot of miscers, but on a lot she is traditional leaning and gives reasons.

- dating apps are poison and people need to go back to meeting IRL

- birth control pills were bad for male/female relationships because lowering the stakes put women into a position of having a weaker position to reject sex with men they are dating

- marriage should be "put on a pedestal"

So there was a bit about porn and she talked about how men watching porn chase a "higher high" as they get bored with whatever they started fapping to and move on to more degenerate kinky content which can put them into a state where they can't get aroused and orgasm with a real woman having vanilla sex.

IOW if you start out as a horny teenage boy getting your rocks off to the underwear models in the Sears catalog, then move on to maybe Playboy, then old school 70's type porn which you have limited access to then this isn't a problem.

But if you have that same horny teenage boy with internet access to virtually unlimited porn anywhere anytime...well, it's a problem for that person to engage with women sexually in a healthy way.

She is also a supporter of sexual role play between couples to keep things fresh and interesting.
