Is porn without masturbation really all that bad?

Agree with all the reasons given above. One more thing, the p industry exploits and damages people - google it yourself. I think there is a documentary style film/series on Netflix about this with testimonials and interviews with p actors. Personally, I'm not ok with other people suffering for my pleasure - what goes around...

 

I don’t believe that is true but I’m sure you will and I hope you’ll pursue righteousness on the straight and narrow path. By the way to stop M I suggest my new method I call urge fasting. To do it, all I do is avoid eating when I feeling an urge. The hunger takes over. Once the urge is gone, I eat all I need. Haven’t lost weight, near as I can tell.

 

I think there is some misunderstanding. This place is porn addiction recovery forum, why we 'like' porn? Because it releases dopamine. It is completely artificial stimuli. And with abusing it a lot of years, it becomes addiction. Forget about the category, amateur or not whatever. If you are here and get rid of this, you should avoid artificial sexual stimuli.

 

"And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out,
and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for
thee that one of thy members should perish, and
not that thy whole body should be cast into hell." - Matthew 5:29

I'm not even Christian but come on. It is clear that The Bible doesn't condone pornography.

 

but why do you watch it after all? If you want to watch something, go watch a movie

 

Because he enjoys the plot
