    Isn't it crazy how rampant porn is among our society, yet nobody ever acknowledges it?

    It's just unbelievable how when you walk around a public area, and just ask yourself how many guys are slaves to porn. A lot of them don't even know what they're doing to their brains, their relationships, and their lives in general, so they're completely okay with it. Yet with all these guys suffering from the same problem, few to none openly talk about it with the exception of groups like these.

    Y'all feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but about porn research.... If they get their data from self reported sources, I feel like their results would be skewed by people who either lie about using porn, or just not getting a substantial sample size, as people who use porn may be less likely to fill out a survey about using porn. What would happen if we got some of the major search engines to shed some light on how many of their users regularly visit porn sites? Or would that be a breach of security?

    Idk, just brainstorming here. Curious if anyone else here has similar thoughts.

    Correction* We do, don't we? :p People on NoFap have realised that it's time for a change, so I'd just change that word 'nobody' to a 'very small group.'

    True that.
    That is an interesting question. I'd say yay and nay. Perhaps, if users were kept confidential and these search engines were to just record every time someone searches something p-related, then not only is it not a *major* breach of security, it would also be unbiased, beneficial data that could potentially be used to prove how infatuated the world is with cheap, easy entertainment.

    I see you're on 6 days! Congats, mate! Keep working hard.

    Some porn sites, such as one well-famous one that I will still not mention, do reports such as these. They find interesting correlations such as the dramatic drop in porn viewage during the Women’s March, as well as other events.
