Where as Porn helps stimulate your mind and body and release your urges if case need be.
iLLmatic, there actually are known health benefits for men while watching porn. Regular exercise of the prostate either through masturbation or other sexual activity has been known to reduce a male's risk of BPH or prostate cancer. I will admit however that it is a bit ludicrous to claim that porn has any form of positive mental impact whatsoever.
Please: tell me if the line "porn helps.... release your urges if case need be." is tounge in cheek.
But FinalBlade, I believe they were talking about being addicted to either porn or wow. Both of which are pretty bad . . . addictions period are bad. But, imagine being addicted to porn. You can't go a day without it, then, many times a day. Then a little becomes unsatisfactory, you need more, and you need . . . harder versions of the stuff. It ruins your life more than just your time. It desensitizes. Take it from someone who counsels those who are stuck in such addictions, and from someone who's been there before.
Being addicted to porn isn't that bad, in comparison WoW addiction, also Porn stimulates body and mind, where as WoW addiction causes harm to your body and mind and its not healthy at all. There is benefits of watching porn. And lets not forget not everyone can get a GF in real life, but this a second option to it.
The benfits of Porn far far outweigh any addiction to WoW, since well there isn't any benefits for WoW at all.
What I described is not a rare occurance. 100% of the cases I know, and that isn't just those whom I counsel, but those who actually find nothing wrong with it. It happens, unfortunately. But, I'll just have to disagree with you on this, because I don't want to "derail" the article or something by my explanation.
Your thoughts, right?: "Wow -- cons: unhealthy bodily neglect.
Porn: pros: you 'stimulate body and mind'" Right?
But you're neglecting to think of the cons of porn, which FAR OUTWEIGH the pros you believe are there. Sure you move more, you burn more calories, you get "release" as you say. But, is that worth the huge list of cons? Especially when the "stimulation" of the body and mind are but minute compared to other activities, but the cons of it are FAR worse than most other activities?
But again, I don't want to derail this or anything. If you wish, I have a forum we can discuss things in? So long as discussions are civil?
What cons? Please list these major cons that is far far more than the cons of WoW which I explained earlier to make a point, as to why it makes sense people prefer porn?
Your blowing the cons of porn(no pun intended), which I do know btw, out of proportion. Fact is Porn is more beneficial than WoW. Thats my point end of story. Doesn't matter if you agree cause I was making a statement not asking whether people agree.
I was making a case or stating how I can see why they would think that considering how there is little to no benefit for being addictive to world of warcraft, where as porn there is pros or benefits which people will incline to agree and side on that.
@Chaut not really, unless of course you get a hard on or aroused at pixels within the games and your controller releases yours urges, I can't see it being the same stimulated effect porn has for you.
GG makes a valid point which I 100% agree with.
FB, my friend, no I'm not making it out to be 100% of porn watchers are addicted to it. I've been keeping with the addicted aspect of this article, and you seem to keep that part for the WOW part, but moving away from it for the porn part. If you don't believe me, re-read all your posts with this.
Again, for fear of offending more and getting more "thumbs down" for logically expressing what I find to be true, I ask if you want to debate the Porn issue, then feel free to at my forum. PM me for it or look at my neoseeker sig/profile. It's moved away from discussion of the article, to a debate on whether porn is bad or not.
And yes, GG has a great point. It is a sad truth
Society generally shrugs off porn addictions as not being serious, but the actual person with the addiction will have alot of stress to their life and their partner's life (if she/he sticks around, that is).
Ehh? What pros/benefits are there to having a porn addiction?
You look at it, jerk off, then while your cleaning the spoof from your hands you realize how sad and pathetic your life is because you're all alone and have no girlfriend/wife because she doesn't want to stick around a man who is obsessed with looking at porn and not her body.
If a guy looks at porn, nobody will question him because it's a "blokey" thing to do. And if you're obsessed with porn, then people don't really take it seriously. You might get a "hahaha. Good on ya mate!" from your friends.
If a guy plays WoW, then people will have the misconception that he is a geek or nerd who lives in his parent's basement and has a pimply face due to never getting out into the sunlight.
However just know that the Cons for WoW is far greater than the cons of porn you seem to THINK it is. When in fact is so small compared to WoW.
I think I can imagine what FB is saying by "stimulating the mind and body." I think basically he is saying it's using muscles in your body instead of sitting there staring at a screen all the time. But still doesn't seem "stimulating to mind and body" to me.
