    I've wasted a bunch of money on cam sites, not a crazy amount like some but probably not far off a grand in total.

    Porn can't be Ethic, because porn bring to degenartion, make women objects and many of them are happy to sell their body, Ethic mean to have a moral, Porn is degeneration, so is unethic.

  5. No, I never paid for porn. It's probably one of the dumbest things anyone can do.

    I have bought mags and DVDs, from the days before high quality streaming porn on the internet (when porn searches were more likely to leave you with a computer full of viruses than a high quality video), although not a huge amount.

    I calculated that I spent $8,150 on a certain camsite over the course of about five years. Before that I would call sex chatlines, frequently getting phone bills of several hundred pounds a month. Before that I also went to strip clubs and could easily spend a couple of hundred in a night.

    I bought custom videos, I bought 'items' through the mail. I joined a subscription site once, although that didn't last long.

    I am a long way from being free of pmo addiction. However, I have not paid for anything since January 2019, which I am extremely proud of.

  9. I had a bad addiction to cam sites, but can you blame me, I mean the girls there really liked me and wanted to be with me (sorry just making a joke). I would use a separate credit card for the cam site so I know any payment to that card is for a cam site. I think the one year that it was the worst I spent close to $5000, so figure about $400 per month. And every month I would say to myself, "what are you doing there's so much free stuff out there." Just shows how the addiction can overpower your rationale brain. Thankfully the amount I spent was something I could afford so I never went into serious debt from it. But I sure do wish I had all that money still in my bank account. And so glad that it has been several months since I have been on a cam site and about 23 days without porn.

    I paid for porn sites after I added filters and I could get around filters by using pay sites. Probably only $400 total over 15 years.

  13. Like in your brain when you spend money on camgirls, you feel like you have a kind of "control", "power" on her, and you can let do her what do you wish..maybe this is the reason addicted brain rather camsites instead pf free porn, right?

  14. I think for me is was just a matter of porn escalation, needing that fix and having to find it from new sources. For me, it was not necessarily the control or power over her. I won't go into all I did on the cam sites but let's just say she was normally in control.

  15. I know many girls just give you the illusion of being in control, i was just trying to understand if there was people that really do that -and i am sure of it - for feel control. Is more easy on internet, because you can be anyone ane you don't need to show who you are, so you can act as you wish.

  16. It's funny how there's people calling others "idiots" when we're all part of the same addiction.

    Spoiler Alert: there's no such thing as "free".

    no offence but don't call them idiots please,they might be facing something terrible that they must be looking an escape from.we can't really say much about a person's perspective on his/her problems issues from our standpoint.

    exactly.everything has a price.pay the price get the thing.the price may not be monetary,it can be something worse.like hell lots of time that gets wasted on PMO or just porn in this case.
    it can be a loved one,loosing him/her coz of our own indecisiveness or should i say compulsion to watch/enact/duplicate pornographic practices.
    it can even be the instability of the mind.remember when you were in the situation of being caught red handed watching porn?or when you were carrying it to a washroom despite being afraid of being caught due to the unusual amount of time you spend in the wash.or maybe the social disconnectedness you felt even after being surrounded by people.? those are the prices you paid.believe it or not,these prices are way more harmful than any others.reason being,money can be earned through hard work and determination,but once something such as neural reward circuitry is screwed up,it takes months to readjust to the original thing,even then you still have a very big chance of a relapse due to the oversensitive and hyper-stimulated brain pathways.
