RE: Sex On The Brain! Liberated or manipulated, Is pornography really a mass lobotomy?
Hang on you are stating that masturbating damages your brain, actual brain damage? Please show me an unbiased scientific study that backs up this claim. When I say unbiased I mean a true study not one that has its roots in puritanical thinking.
In terms of neuroplasticity any learning changes the pathways of the brain, brain damage may seem like a bold statement but the "damage" that can happen as a result of continued porn use parallels the brain changes found in such addictions as gambling addiction. There has been a correlation between cognitive function regarding the prefrontal cortex and hours per week of viewing porn, although this may be a chicken or the egg situation. There are many accounts of men who explain the changes that occurred in their general quality of life as a result of quitting porn yourbrainonporn.com provided much of my current understanding on the subject and yes some of these studies can be questioned with regards to certain control variables.
Also this damage is reversible as is the damage seen in other addictions.
