Relationships between human beings are increasingly mediatized, i. e. the other is no longer accessible through a direct encounter experience, but through a means that serves as a link, that is, the mediation of one device is increasingly common between one human being and another. The Internet age has oversized a phenomenon that has reached dramatic proportions and shaped other types of phenomena, such as pornsexuality.
Pornography consumption has been around for a long time, but new technologies have become easier to access this content. This is what led to what is called pornosexuality, or a commitment to pornography as the main axis of individual sexuality.
- There are no entirely reliable statistics on this.
- Because it is an issue that not everyone recognizes; however.
- According to a study entitled Brain Structure and Functional Connectivity Associated with Pornography Consumption.
- Published in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
- 66% of men and 41% of women watch pornography at least once a month; however.
- It is not known how many of these people fall into the heterosexuality category.
Pornography is for sex what McDonald’s is for food, a plastic, generic version of reality?. – Gail Dines-
One of the most important features of postmodernity is the explosion of diversity in the field of sexuality. Protests in this area have become very varied. For the whole world, it is becoming increasingly clear that there are multiple ways to experience sexuality and that they are all perfectly respectable.
What is not very clear is whether pornsexuality is an option, a trend or a problem, it is only a pornsexual that only gets sexual satisfaction when he watches pornography, there is no other way to get real pleasure, they are not casual users of such videos. Pornography, in fact, is the indispensable reference to live your sexuality.
In postmodern and open terms, this would be just one more expression of the great diversity that exists today, from a psychological point of view arises the question of whether this behavior is not a way of avoiding real relationships, if so, it is not a free expression, but a mechanism that masks a problem.
Everything points to the upstream spiral in the use of pornography, the person begins as an occasional viewer and, little by little, the behavior becomes repetitive, for many there comes a time when they can only enjoy sexuality through pornography. , pornography dulls the desire and pleasure of a royal couple.
Pornography creates sexual situations artificially, this artificiality is not baladi, because it conditions elements as important as expectations, in addition, eliminates the contradictions that a real relationship of sexuality entails, therefore, for those struggling to cope with the ups and downs of intimacy. , pornography may end up becoming a substitute for sex.
Pornsexuality stagnates psychosexual development. To have a partner and achieve satisfactory intimacy it is necessary to cultivate and develop social skills and psychoafective dimensions, in many cases the obsessive relationship with pornography prevents this from happening.
Some studies suggest that pornography has enough potential to alter the structure and functioning of the brain, this is because when you watch such a video, there are strong dopamine discharges, when there is a stimulus that causes this type of response, the risk of developing dependence increases considerably.
Similarly, frequent exposure to pornography alters the brain’s reward center, which means that the more pornography you see, the less fun it produces, the effect is exactly the same as an addiction, that is, every time you have to consume more to achieve a level of pleasure similar to that obtained before.
The most disturbing thing is that pornsexuality deprives people of direct intimate contact with other human beings, the other being replaced by a screen. This can mask the fear of authentic relationships, while fueling that fear; like any addictive behavior, in the long run, ends up creating a well that won’t be easy to get out of.
