On
TV, in the cinema, in music videos and on the Internet, sexual materials are
easily accessible. Is this relentless advancement of pornography, sex-stressed
imagery really as harmless as some want to make us believe?
Contrary to what their proponents claim, pornography is extremely detrimental to the attitude, sexuality and sexual behavior. The researchers of the National Foundation for Family Research and Education concluded that "consumers of pornography are increasingly at risk of developing deviant sexual tendencies". According to the report, "the rape myth is extremely widespread among men who habitually deal with pornography."
According to some researchers, the repeated employment with pornography can affect the normal sexual life in marriage and the pleasure to it. As a specialist for the treatment of sexual addiction, noted, the consumption of pornography follows an always recurring scheme. If nothing is done, occasional viewing of pornographic images can eventually lead to a harder, more anomalous material. This, as he says, can result in deviant sexual behavior. Which cannot be remedied even by the grave feelings of guilt ". In the end, the person concerned may try to turn his pornography-based dirty fantasies into action, often with catastrophic consequences.

1.
Dissatisfaction in the marriage. The fact is that the pornography is not only a
fantasy but it makes it more difficult to have true love relationships. Which sometimes
leads to infidelity. Research has shown
that men who have been exposed to pornography find it very difficult to maintain love relationship. These type of men suffer from low self-esteem which makes them
see themselves as less and not up to their partner.An
analysis was performed in which none porn and porn viewers were accessed and it came out that none porn viewers are
better at their relationship compared to porn viewers. Pornography put out the
fire of romance in marriage by portraying sex in marriage as hard work and
complicated. This causes dissatisfaction in the marriage which leads a number
of problems.
2.
Trust is broken. According to numerous studies,
a prolonged exposure to pornography leads to a decline in trust between the
couple. No wonder since pornography and secrecy go hand in hand. Most people
who watch pornography do everything they can to keep it hidden. Couples feel
betrayed when they learn that they have been hiding it for so long and wonder
what else they will not know.
3.
Obstacles emotional intimacy. Pornography leads you to treat the other person
as an object and you cannot have a meaningful interaction with them. There is a
big difference between having sex and making love. Sex is about pleasure while
making love is about connecting. Sex is about the body while making love is
about the person.
4. Low self-esteem. When men and women had been exposed to pornography they were more likely to be dissatisfied with their partner's physical appearance, affection and sexual performance. In addition, it does not only affects how you see others but also how you see yourself. Those who watch porn think of themselves that they are less attractive. Research has found that consumers of pornography compare themselves and their partners with models of the images they see. As a result, they lose interest in sex because they become more critical of their partner's appearance.
5. Selfishness. Promotes selfishness and immediate pleasure. Many think only of receiving, not giving. A relationship where one is only interested in receiving does not last long.
6. It Alters the brain. It changes the physical outlook and appearance of the brain. Scientists at the University of Cambridge have recently studied the brains of pornography addicts and have found out that they look exactly the same as drug addicts. This is very scary: the more porn a person sees, the more severe the damage to his brain and the more difficult it will be to break free from the addiction. As with other addictive substances, pornography fills the brain with the chemical dopamine which is responsible for several roles like pleasure. The more you see the more insensitive pornography you become. The addiction is not that you want more and more of pornography but want something different, new and erotic. This often makes users venture into ever more perverse content, so pornography is tied to violence and crime. As you see, pornography is not a good friend to your health and your marriage.
7.
Degrades women. Research has shown porn changes the way men see women, the more
porn a man sees, the more likely they want women to be submissive and
subordinate to them. Porn always shows women being dominated and abused just
for personal enjoyment.
These makes men see them as objects and not as unique and valuable because of the degrading way in which women and sex are portrayed.

8.
Destroy your sex life. Porn destroys your libido which leads to a decrease in sexual activity. A recent survey of
users of pornography shows that 19% suffer from premature ejaculation, 25% have
no interest in sex with their partner, 31% have difficulty reaching orgasm and
34% experience erectile dysfunction. About 60% of them felt that their sexual
functions had improved and 67% had an increase in their levels of energy and in
productivity. When they avoided masturbation and pornography all together.
10 Brings about infidelity. Infidelity in homes to day is due to porn if not
majority then the minority but the fact of the matter is porn is one of the
causative agent of infidelity in marriage Watching pornography diminishes
commitment to the relationship. It is interesting how society tells us
that if you do not allow pornography in your marital home you will be leading
it into infidelity when in fact pornography is linked to infidelity. Free
pornography has a strong destructive emotional, psychological and physical
influence. At least more than half of those who see pornography
alone or with their partner would test this negative impact
10.
Bring emotional instability. There three emotional conditions that can have a
strong negative impact not only on ourselves but on our marriage. These three
are depression, stress and anxiety. All
these are linked to pornography. Men who have cyber-sex have an alarmingly high
rate of clinical depression, stress, and anxiety.
CONCULSION
According to research this problem can arise slowly and unintentionally. It
grows and spreads like cancer. It almost never fades by itself, and it is very
difficult to treat and to heal. The behavior of the addicted men is usually
predictable: they mostly deny the problem and refuse to do so. This almost
always leads to marital problems, sometimes to divorce, or to other intimate
interpersonal relationships issues.
