    Hey everyone,
    My question might seem strange since I'm on a current streak of 20 days no pmo, but I'm just curious. People have been MOing for a long time. Way longer then potn in it's current form have been around. So why didnt people back then (for the most part) develop bad sexual habits like the vast majority of men today? Dont plan on breaking my streak anytime soon. 20 days strong!!!

    Occasional masturbating is not the problem, the problem is the fact that any kind of porn to all forms of extreems is easy accessible now. Previously (last century) you only had imagination or only some limited (vanilla) magazines and movies. With emphasis on limited amount. The access to porn was only accessed by a small group also, hidden or considered perverts, and I even assume that within this group there were also people with bad sexual habits, the group was just al lot smaller.
    The internet brought porn, there was a time in the nineties that 50% of the entire internet was porn related. Internet was still young and hardly used by consumers at first it was mostly email for businesses. Most searched word on the internet by far was "sex" during the first few years. You can even say porn helped internet to grow, slowly came the chat sites and napster (downloading music, the big hype for the normal (young)consumers) and launched the internet to what it is now.

  3. We don't know that they didn't, and it wouldn't be a far stretch of the imagination to say that sexual problems have always existed.

    The best way to deal with MO is on an individual level. Luckily we are equipped with a system of releasing sperm automatically, and this usually comes in the form of nocturnal emissions. I don't know if there is a need to MO - some people say that there is - but if you are going to do it, ask yourself if it's worth it and what it could lead to.

    It's as simple as this. When you have the resources, you want to try everything. When you have money, you want to buy many thing, try many drinks. Similarly when you have access to porn, you want to try everything. Every porn genre and every kinky stuff. Which soon becomes an bad habit

    That would not kill you, but you definetly don't need it. When you are horny just message that cute girl you're too ashamed to reach normally and try to get laid.

    From my own experience, I grew up mo to playboy mags/bikini pics and the occasional video tape (damn, it was like Christmas whenever I got one from a friend, a real treat). I didn't have problem with porn escapism or dick problems until I had high speed Internet porn access much later in my life. So I don't think mo is the problem per se but high speed Internet gives super duper access = super duper dopamine shots = fucked up brain.
