    is there a gray area when it comes to sex work and specifically when it comes to porn? I think the reason porn is so addictive and blurred is because we haven't found a way to regulate it yet. Someone mentioned porn directors making billions off of our "addiction" but I can count on two hands the number of times I've paid for porn. Streaming sites put almost every porn video at our fingertips for free. I've acknowledged my addiction, and therefor have chosen to live without it, but for those capable of thougtfulness and responsibility when it comes to viewing porn in a way that promotes open mindedness and dialogue about rusted taboos, I don't get the problem.

    Off topic, but does anyone else here masturbate to non porn? I split my time between pornogrpahy and sexually implicit videos on YouTube such as wrestling and massage. Thoughts or ways to avoid watching these vids? Do you guys think acting out massage or wrestling fantasies in real life can help to avoid getting me stuck in a black hole of vid watching????
    Thanks for reading

    Hello Lucysnotamexican,

    I've been addicted for the most time of my life and haven't paid a single penny for it.
    About your fantasies for massage and wrestling, I'm pretty sure acting them out won't solve your issue.
    It would even make it worse in my opinion. My girlfriend and I did all my imaginable fantasies, I did everything I fantasized about, but when we did that I didn't feel as horny as I thought it would make me.. I even had to close my eyes and imagine those fantasies I saw before I could get off. And it felt pretty horrible afterwards too, so no reason to try it out if you ask me.

    Best of luck,
    Davy

    Look around the web enough and you'll find an ample number of stories that describe the damage done by porn, even through legit means. It doesn't matter if the site you go to is paid or free, it makes money because of your interest in the material. When you view porn, you partake in the stories of the people who made it possible, from pornstar.. producer.. cameraman.. to sites.. etc..

    For your reflection: http://www.fightthenewdrug.org/mindys-story/

    It would be excellent if someone had a more vivid example of how the average porn viewer contributes to stories like these. There is a connection, but it is obscured.

    The more view a site gets the more advertisements want to display on said site. The advertisements will pay the site to display their product, and they will pay big to stay up on that site. It is one way some of the porn people get paid.
     
  5. No porn is free. You have in fact paid over and over. Every click is money via ads and affiliates.

    Likely, you've been shoveling money into Manwin's pockets if you are/were a tuber. http://www.independent.ie/business/...-dublins-silicon-docks-district-29297081.html How big is Manwin? In the top five of bandwidth consumers in the world. And bandwidth is super cheap. "But I didn't click on any ads" you say? You didn't have to. They are pay on load and pay by click. Each and every time you loaded a page, it contained ads or affiliate traffic that generated cash.
