It's like actually quite simple. If you masterbate to porn it simply means you are used to porn to masterbate. So,if you quit porn or distract yourself from porn it would be simple for you not to fap. But if you are used to masterbate even without porn, means it doesn't matter there is a porn or not,doesn't matter if you haven't watched porn for a plenty of days, you will fap even without porn simply using your fantasies. And I am the victim of it, I used to fap with my imagination. So it was hard for me not to fap. I failed plenty of times. But now, I have conquered that with fapping to porn. Now I can't fap without porn. Now, I am heading to NoPMO untill I have sex. And that day is far cause I am 16
But I am sorry to say that is actually quiet wrong. The biggest deal is porn, what creates the bad addiction is porn, what changes you tastes about sex is porn, if you masturbate thinking a woman(or man), you will be thinking to your crush probably or your favorite singer or something like this. You will create to your brain the desire to have the actual intercourse with this person. If you watch porn, you will have what you want, the type of woman/man you want, doing the thing that you want, everything you want, just clicking play. You will send the message to your brain, to have a woman performing this act you will click play. Then you will meet a real girl, and the real girl is not willing to do that act, she finds it humiliating. So your brain will just tell you "screw her, go home click play and this time we can even watch something harder". And it start the cycle and you really don't know when it ends, go in problematic sexual behaviour section, and you'll see people who prefers watch porn instead of the actual sex, people who starts from an "innocent fetish" to an addiciton for the weirdest thing. The best thing is to quit both, but if you need to fail, well masturbate with your fantasy rather watching porn brainlessy. Trust me.
For me both of them are the same because both of them are harmful... watching porn will affect your way of thinking and attitudes you will see everything and relate it to porn... your female friends, teammates, teachers. on the other hand masturbating without porn will make you most of the time horny n I think it won't be nice to feel it in front of people or in public place... Right now I'm suffering from the second case..
Depends on frequency and time-frame. Extreme masturbation (multiple times a day) is more harmful to you in the short-term than watching pornography, because there's actual physical energy being expended, and if you don't give yourself enough time to recoup that energy before expelling more you're just going to get worse and worse. But watching pornography over a long period is going to fuck your perceptions of the world up beyond recognition.
Maybe most people will not agree with me,but that is how i feel and what i think. Those two things goes hand to hand,if you watch p you will m.In past when i was edging for hour watching porn but not masturbate i would feel bad for next whole day. When i masturbate without porn i feel much worse for next 3 days. In my case my body handle worse with orgasm than porn.But watching porn without M makes no sense unless you edging.
