  • Hentai is one of the most damaging aspects of the Internet in the 2020s. What makes it so destructive, and what can we do about it?
    A shootoff of the anime industry, hentai is ravaging the minds of tens of millions of people. While many of them are minors, who are especially vulnerable, hentai negatively impacts the bodies & minds of everyone. Young and old, men and women alike. Parts of the anime industry and many anitubers aren't helping the situation.
    In this video, I dive into the hentai problem, and break down all the ways it's hurting people, as well as how we can address it. This is how hentai destroys your mind.

    As someone who has been around anime their entire lives but was introduced to hentai in their teens I will make the argument that hentai should not be compared to regular porn. The anime art style isn’t a depiction of a real human being it’s a depiction of an idealized, stylized human beings that some find more attractive. Since they’re not real and often drawn to be suggestive, they’re much easier to objectively and distort to your own personal tastes. Hentai devolves into intimately nuanced kinks that preside at the psychological level beyond simple sexual gratification, it’s more stimulating and addicting than regular porn because it’s not real and can be tinted to your own desires.

I think things in life are about balance, people get addicted to a lot of things, of course some things are more addicting than others (like hentai), but the principle of balance still remains, as long as it doesn't affect your life in a negative manner it is alright, but some people really have trouble controling their own bodies I get it. The one thing I kinda despise and get disgusted by is actual porn, there's something in my soul that feels utter disgust at the sight of two humans sharing their intimacy to the public that is really gut wrenching and disgusting lol.

    It's not really accurate to say that nobody is making the argument that lolicon content is the same as child abuse, because there is a pretty vocal segment of the woke hate mobs making that very argument. That said, those same people often turn out to be hypocrites and in many cases will get so hyperbolic with it that they'll start going off over non-sexualized images.
    I disagree with the sentiment that these things need to be regulated. I am wholeheartedly against government intervention, because once the government gets their foot in the door on things like this they never stop. How many people are willing to give up their action movies and violent video games? It doesn't matter if you or I see them as the same thing, because by enabling the regulatory body to regulate hentai in the name of public decency, they then have the power to regulate anything in the name of public decency. We've already seen a lot of this these past few years with people getting banned on social media in the name of squashing "misinformation", but as it turns out this was being done corruptly. My point is: You cannot regulate morality to this extent. In order for society to function you need laws in place to punish those that bring harm to others, but when it comes to people doing harm to themselves the government needs to stay out of it. The best thing you can do is give people the ability to make informed decisions and hope they'll be responsible with it, and give support to those that have faltered and want help. To do otherwise is to eliminate the free society.

      I know this is kinda controversial, but this sorta stuff varies from person to person. I'm glad you're treating yourself better and I hope you manage to recover from it, no form of addiction is good for your body or for your motivation. With that said, I just wanted to say that, sometimes, there are people who simply draw hentai because they enjoy it lol, like, it is a source of inspiration for some people. I myself am a hentai artist, when I look at other people's work I don't usually see it in the way most people here describe it, I just like seeing good art of human bodies, and hentai is usually a really fun way to put those ideas out. Of course some authors opt for darker themes, other for lighter themes. It's just a lot of people demonize artists as if their goal is something evil or like we're trying to make people addicted. When I'm drawing stuff I'm doing it for myself, because I enjoy it, it's like making a game, if someone ends up getting addicted to it that's bad but you as the creator are not exactly to blame. In any case, I even tend to encourage people who have this sort of addiction to seek help for it (however counter-productive it may sound, since my clients are usually horny people lol), overall I just think I'm built weird, and among the other artists I've spoken to, they're also just "built weird".

    A big thing that helped me overcome my problems was to have a few set phrases that I could repeat to myself whenever I had an urge. Things like, "remember what it made you", "porn offers you nothing", "do I really want to be doing this in 20 years", "how much time have I already wasted" etc. I have found it is much easier to overcome when you can convince yourself wholly that it is bad for you every time you have an urge. And yes, the way the addiction works in my experience you WILL have to keep reminding yourself repeatedly. It pulled me down to the lowest I have ever been and I want people to know that no matter how deep into this pit you have fallen, you can come back from it. I sometimes question whether or not there is forgiveness from the kind of degeneracy I fell into in my private life, and I strive everyday to prove to myself that there is. For anyone out there that is on the fence, I offer you this encouragement: You have NOTHING to lose, if you quit and find out that you loved your porn life, then you can always go back. However, if you don't try quitting and its whats best for you, you will never know.

      I think the biggest concern is people living in there imaginations, anything is fine in moderation. But for manga/anime especially slice of life where its "similar" to reality, its important to recognise that even though its meant to be related to life, a lot of it isn't real, the classroom is always spotless, the characters usually have the time and money to do what they want even tho its often never mentioned, fate always makes it so the characters thoughts Aline within the plot and each other, often in non-realistic unlikely ways since that makes it interesting, the expressions and emotions are more emphasised and often characters due to the art style are almost always made beautiful even if there meant to be outcasts or not attractive, even the environment itself has perfect symmetry and is visually pleasing, so I can see why people retreat from reality when it hits them in the face a few to many times.

    I'm glad to say that I've stopped looking at porn and hentai. Back in 2020-2022 I did. I would sit in my room for a long time. At first it felt great, but at the end I was done watching, I felt terrible. The same feeling when you're bored, I guess? Lazy? Tired? Braindead? The feeling you get when you're in a waiting room. Can't think of anything, can't do anything. Like my mind just escaped my head. This is what made me want to change. I felt unproductive and trapped, like I wasn't my own person, someone had overtaken me and made choices for me. By the end of 2022, I felt like it was about time to do something useful. Go outside and touch grass, as they say. My new years resolution was to take care of my mind and body more. So I have. I do a little exercising, nothing too serious, but still something. I'm slowly rationing my time on the Internet and focusing more on academics. Gotta say, I feel happier, stronger, and more confident in myself. That's why I encourage you all to quit your addictions. You'll feel so much better. You can change.

      What sucks for some people is that what you can do in real life is very limited compared to the vastness of the Internet.
      I can't go outside, take a walk to a store or walk across a busy street anymore. Instead, I am stuck in a high and isolated place, where the nearest town is six hours away, and.... it has no guarantee that I'd be able to come back in the same manner by walking. Would rather not get lost.

      Is it just me or human connections feel much more pleasing than watching the porn part of said video?
      While I was training my self-control by watching porn without fapping, I encountered a porn video that showcase a vacation trip to Japan's Disneyland with an Asian porn actress enjoying their time visiting various attractions like rollercoasters, haunted houses and shines, etc. while a hopeful violins music play on repeat at the background until the trip ends. Finally found happiness in watching porn without fapping while thinking about wholesome visions of experiencing that until they did the deed, the happy and cheerful violin music stop abruptly as the actress dress in such a scandalous way, the scene felt so unsettling as if I'm the one being cuckolded, and I felt the feeling of emptiness while I reflect on my standing as a person.

I've always enjoyed anime and have aspirations of using the medium to tell my own stories in the future, and it's nice to know that there is a firm divide between the medium of delivery and the content being delivered. It's just unfortunate it's reputation nowadays, because it feels like a lot of anime shows are needlessly sexualised for little to no reason.

    Its quite scary to see how me vs my classmates developed. I got online later then them, and the earlier they got online is visible very heavily in their morality of the world. We both would've seen much of the same content to start with, the difference being they had much longer to get pulled into bad things. I think just about anybody can be dragged that low with how much many things are attempting to pull you from morality. I remember being and school and saw a friend get an ad which was by most reasonable standard would be very borderline if not explicit material outright and thinking it was a targeted ad. Then I remembered our school accounts can't get targeted ads because google allows the USD (Unified School District) accounts to be barred from this. The general advertising and mainstream attention explicit material gets is too much, and anybody can be pulled in.

I'm perfectly capable of watching hentai, and not letting it effect me or my day to day life. I watch it, that's it. doesn't leak into my life or anything. Just as I play games or watch anime, it doesn't influence me as a person or take apart my life.

      It’s because pornography is against christian moral norms, and he believe that masturbation is contributing factor to decreasing birth rates. He also takes into consideration how this chips away at your christian faith and interrupts a personal relationship with God. The message in this video is mostly towards white, Christian Americans, and people in that demographic got the message loud and clear! As for others, I’m not sure he cares, or that it really matters.

      ​​​@@user-ru3ne9br2bEven if it is true that it affects birth rate, it doesn't really matter because there's a huge overpopulation problem in the world. Eventually, if there's not like a huge natural disaster, it's not going to be enough resources because there's going to be people everywhere and no way to get rid of them.
      Also the whole message is kind of stupid that you shouldn't watch porn like the no fap movement. That you shouldn't masturbate because it stops you from doing anything and pursuing anything. Some people do get addicted to it but the majority of people it's just a thing to do. It doesn't really affect you.
      And the whole Christian thing it doesn't really affect me because I'm more agnostic. I don't technically believe in like the Christian god. Unless like they find proof of it one day. But I'm sure if there is a God I don't think it would care what you were doing because it's so far above you. It's like if ants were masturbating right now. I don't think you would care.

      Not everyone has the same experience as you. I also used to watch hentai and it affected me. I got addicted to it and it was making my life fall off the tracks. I would always think about it and I would never let go of it in my mind. It made it hard for me to concentrate on my day to day activities. I couldn't study properly, I couldn't spend time with my friends. I always watch it secretly and I just couldn't concentrate on what's going on around me and forget about my main priority. It's why it's unhealthy for a person. Now, you're not letting your day to day activities get affected by those things and that's a good thing. But you can't deny that pornography, whether it's in the form of hentai or any other style, can be very addicting and many people have gone through similar experiences like I did to the point people aren't able to properly focus on their life and waste their time and that's a bad thing. The human mind is complex and everyone will react to these things differently, there are people who were exposed to these things but they will forget about it and move on and then there are those who are going through similar experiences like me and they're the ones who need to stop watching it and focus more on their life.

    • @VexingWeeb

      ​@@abdulazeemshaikh8314 Yeah thats what I was originally saying. That personally,it hasn't affected me, but the way he makes it sound is that hentai/pornography effects almost every single one so therefore it must completely be taken out and banned completely. Which personally, I don't feel is the right thing to do. There's other things that have a much bigger and broader impact on people than hentai/pornography and they're not bad. It seems like a bit of an overstatement to determine that all of it is bad, everyone using it is being effected, and therefore it must be outright banned.
      By the logic of the video, why should smoking and drinking not be outlawed completely? both have a bad effects on people's live and smoking isn't just the smoker themselves,but the people around them being directly effected by it too. Drinking does the same, indirectly hurting the people around the drinker by their actions (not to mention the self harm doing both does to the person themself.)
      You could go as far as to say sex(without the goal of reproduction) and masturbation should be outlawed too because both can be addicting and are self destructive if you get addicted to it.
      All of these are destructive, some more than others, and yet they're not outlawed or anything. Because they're done in moderation. (Sure smoking and drinking, even in low and careful amounts is harmful) but the way he words and makes the video out to be is hentai/porn in its entirety is bad. when that's not the case, if you use it in moderation, then its helpful.
      A better title and goal to work towards would be how hentai /addiction/ is destructive and how one can better moderate their intake of it ,or how to stop (stop not because its bad, but because your /addiction/ to it is bad)
      He also uses a statistic about asian/japanese men I believe? (haven't watched the video in a few days so im not 100% sure but I think the statistic was aimed at specifically japanese men) to try to represent how hentai/porn is destructive to their life or how they regress from the real world to their imaginary world. I feel that's biased and he did not explain enough into why that statistic is. its not /only/ because of hentai. He forgets to mention why so many japanese men are single, why they aren't in a relationship/can't find one. he blames it on hentai, but that's not the reason. If anything, I'd go as far to say as hentai/their imaginary world is what's stopping them from comiting suicide, as the suicide rate is japan for men is actually fairly high because of the society and life style that's perpetuated there. Not that hentai should be praised because it stopped these people from going to a worst fate, but you can't blame hentai for the reason their life is like that.

That was it, my life was over, I stopped going out in public and eventually stopped attending school. I was overweight and I couldn't enjoy anything, because I felt like such a terrible person. Then I had enough, I considered suicide. I was thankfully talked out of it by my father and I started reconsidering my life. Things started getting better slowly but I was still a loser, I was overweight and I had to join a new school (YES, I HAD TO JOIN AN ENTIRE NEW SCHOOL, THIS IS HOW BAD THIS SITUATION HAD DAMAGED ME). Then in late 2022 I found out about NoFap, and the idea of self improvement itself. I started watching all these motivational videos and I realized how much of my life I had wasted. I promised myself that I would never go back to this lifestyle and I began to change my life for the better. Now I am doing much better, but I am still disgusted by people who defend porn of any kind after what it's done to me. I hope anyone reading this won't make the same mistakes I have made, anyone still watching porn of any kind should QUIT NOW. I'm telling you right now, It will only get worse and worse and you might stumble across something horrific online...

    I spent my entire teenage life, from when I was introduced to it around age 13, with hentai.
    It took me almost 10 years to start realizing what had happened, and by then it was way too late. I spent at least an hour every day with this stuff, often much more, and it consumed every aspect of my life; including my studies and professional ones.
    I'm very public about this, because I think it needs to be heard. I'm now, by the grace of God, porn free. I converted to Catholicism 2 years ago, and there I finally found the reason, and got the grace, to quit what I had known to be damaging for almost 2 years prior, but had been unable to do anything about.
    A large part of the struggle is the fact that most people do not address it. It's viewed as acceptable and normal to do this kind of stuff, and there's therefore very little help to get. You'll usually get the "everything in moderation" argument, which is an incredibly poor motivator to overcome an actual addiction. That's why I don't hide what I was, even if I may want to. It's not rare for me to get other guys asking me whether or not it's really true that I live without ever masturbating. Many of them simply can't believe it; they can't even imagine it.
    I still, to this day, carry the consequences of this addiction. I don't read most manga, or watch most anime, because even the slightest fan-service on the wrong day can send me down a spiral, so I just stopped. The same goes for a lot of other media. My sexual preferences are so out of wack that it will likely take yet another miracle for me to ever be able to live a normal sex life, and even my occasional wet dreams usually depict acts only possible in hentai.
    Still, quitting was the best thing I ever did, second only to my first communion. It's better to be a wounded freeman, than a healthy slave brothers and sisters. Trust me on this one. Become free to pursue the best version of yourself, the version that God envisioned when He created you.
    God Bless.

      Hey, man i do feel your pain.
      I do agree on absolute demolition of fantasy porn, and its favorable effects on your soul, and it takes a lot of strength to absolutely negate this whole problem.
      unfortunately, i have a question about this hermitage, and that is:
      will there be consequences to taking this group too seriously also ?
      I mean. you have harmed your health pretty badly and now in a state of healing, but you can't hide in your church for ever, you need to self actualize and go back to this existence.
      and that's also hard since "the slightest fan-service on the wrong day can send me down a spiral" is a bad thing, but if you don't develop mental fortitude and thicker skin, you won't be able to become an actual muscular well rounded individual, and you only find it you jump head first into hell and manage to endure it all, while not become a shell of a former self nor a socially stulted human being.
      Balance is what make your life worth while and if you achieve failure again, that's good. your only option then will be to win.
      Moderated suffering is good for mind body and soul.
      just like boiling yourself in the shower water to then in a split second turn the coldest water and keep it going until you shaking and then don't wipe it off but keep your body to adjust to the cold.

    The main difference between it being drawn versus filmed is that while there are no actresses being abused and destroyed, a lot of that is transferred to the consumer. Without the restrictions of reality, the medium of animation gives a lot more power over the mind. It not only presents socially fictional scenarios and acts, but also physically fictional scenarios and acts. This deletes the consumer's ability to see the negative affects, and bypasses a lot of legal and moral restrictions film does. Children, beasts, monsters, spirits, families....... they're all simplified and sexualized, and your mind fills in the blanks, and you get hooked towards the desire. It's definitely worse for you than film.

      porn, for me is a form of escapism. a way to distract myself from the looming self hatred and anxiety that follows me in everyday life.
      i know i have a really difficult time with social interactions and have very little faith in my own self worth. depression is something thats been following me for a long time and so instead of confronting those beasts directly i've tried time and again to hide from them using escapeism. video games, anime, many hours of youtube, fanfiction occasionally, and of course porn and hentai comics. i mean i cant really muster up the confidence to properly talk much less flirt with a girl for less then a few seconds, and all my conversations result in dead ends. so the likelyhood of me getting into a relationship is slim to none.
      i get why porn is bad for you. it changes your perception of the opposite sex. it desensitizes you to future sexual interactions (as if im ever going to have one anyway), it can cause you to have chronic masturbation addiction etc. all of these are a problem that affect you in the real world. but my low esteem and antisocialness is a problem too. i am constantly mulling over my mistakes and always being too harsh on myself.. i dont WANT to confront thoses feelings, im SCARED to. and if porn is a way to distract me from feeling like an utter piece of shit, then i guess ill take it..
      im so glad you've gotten out of your addiction by the way. im sure it was a struggle to shed that sense of need. however, im not exactly at that stage yet. i try to pick up other hobbies like reading and watching tv, but i still feel those negative self depricating thoughts rearing their ugly ass heads. if you have any advice on how to properly quit im all ears. i've been spendly too much time on the internet in general if im being honest.

      Here's my advice if you want. Take what you need.
      It seems though that you already know why you're using those forms of escapism which is a really great start and the first step. Second step is to face your mind. Stop being super harsh on yourself and beating yourself up for every little thing you do. Especially for social interactions and literally everything in general. You're a literal human being who's learning how to be social. Learn self-compassion and be with yourself on it. This means you really have to be aware of any negative self-depricating self-hating thought you have and turn it into the opposite of that thought. There must be absolutely no self-depricating/self-hating thoughts. To tackle low self-worth you really have to start valuing yourself like you'd value your best friend or your lover, or your child because eventually you will face those versions of yourself in the past and have to have compassion for every version of yourself.
      Point blank is to face your mind, develop self-compassion, value yourself, and take care of yourself.
      Also a short note on self-acceptance. Literally accept your awkward self because thats you that's the true you. You will develop confidence with time.
      I recommend looking at a site like lonerwolf.com and a youtube channel called heathygamer.gg

You can learn from your mistakes in the past but don't hold on to them like they're reminders of everything that you hate/dislike about yourself. You aren't that person anymore because you have learned/are trying to learn from your mistakes. You must let go of the past.

    The loli section is weak and feels more like a shock factor.
    1. Because porn makes women less appealing, saying children become valid targets is contradictory.
    2. Missing the forest among the trees, those most vocal against loli come out as pedophiles on a minimum of a weekly basis. I have never seen charity from such activists, only a desire for internet clout. Or in short, you’ve fallen for the “what about the priests” argument.
    3. Loli is different enough to avoid the US CP ban, someone liking one and not the other holds water.
    4. Loli is not inherently sexual and neither is shota, this is something such activists deny, and I felt the need to clarify.
    5. Your reading of the studies doesn’t seem to completely align with your points as you didn’t have a quote of their full agreement. Plus there are experts who disagree, “settled science” is a dangerous ideology on its own.
    The correct option to address lolicon is as nothing unique in the sea of hentai. A sudden total ban will fail in the west, a planned slippery slope will get results, that’s how gun grabbers have found so much success. Plus it avoids the key issue that what makes something porn must be arbitrary as no one agrees where the line truly is. However even that will fail if the culture doesn’t change.

    I think Hentai Addiction is probably a thousand times worse than Porn Addiction.
    One, you have the community. PA Coomers are usually keeping it on the down-low, while HA Coomers think they're "men of culture" and like to spread it whenever they can and its just as bad as furries can be when it comes to spreading their degeneracy. And while PA Coomers might like to throw out "step-bro what are you doing?" memes, you've probably seen more from HA Coomers and just how many CZcamsrs, artists, and memes normalize the huge boobs and ahegao faces aspects. Shit, I've seen Hentai defenders go through more mental gymnastics that would make a tankie proud. I have never seen PA Coomers defend Porn like their lives depend on it like HA Coomers do.
    Two, you have the platform itself. Hentai is a drawn platform, not a real-life one. Meaning that literally anything you can think of has probably been done, or can be easily done. Impossible proportions (like huge boobs)? Right there. Bestiality with horses, dogs, swine, and even insects? Easy to find. "Gray area" kinks like rape, BDSM, and even loli? Hentai got you covered... and yes, I put the quotation marks on purpose, because that shit is not gray. Hell, the passion alone the girls have, and the nigh-infinite stamina guys have has an effect. In Porn, actors and actresses are limited. Not like normal folks, but still limited because of their stamina and lust. In Hentai? Hoo boy. The fucking passion and action will get your brain hooked like a mf.
    Three, you have the radicalization. Not in the political sense, but close. In Hentai, you start out with vanillas, maybe some small and normal kinks here and there, but over time your preferences will go into a realm that Porn can never cover. Some may say that I'm exaggerating, but I am not. I was a Hentai Addict once. I'm still trying to recover, I've been working on myself and got a 3 month streak of nofap going strong. I'm still recovering, but holy shit, its not easy when Hentai is that addicting. Its like comparing Weed to Crystal Meth, they're all bad, but one is easily worse. And unlike drugs, Porn and especially Hentai Addictions are normalized. Its the small quirky little thing people like to do in private, unlike the bad bad drugs that will throw your life in a downward spiral, nevermind the fact that PA and HA will absolutely throw you down a flight of spiral stairs, but given the fact that its so normalized, people generally won't look into quitting because its not as stigmatized.

      Also, a very important thing to note is when you fail, try to pinpoint what made you go down that path. I have deleted so many things because they'd get me down and make me fail. A videogame I have that has certain elements that get me? Welp, its gone now. A video I really goddamn love? Not anymore. A server that has a lot of my friends? Quit it. Slowly but surely, try to get rid of anything unnecessary that can ruin your streak.
      Like any recovery from addiction, masturbation addiction requires time, commitment, and a strong will, and I KNOW that you've got what it takes. The fact that you've decided to quit on it is proof. It _is_ a hard one to get rid of since unlike cigarettes, you can't walk outside or work without a phone in your pocket, but IT IS doable. If I made it, you 200% can.
      I honestly suggest that once you get the urge to whip it out, immediately close whatever got you horny and get out of the room and have a walk inside (or outside if possible) the house with a clean mind and come back after 15m. This one tip helped me so-so much.
      Good luck friend, I sincerely hope the best for you.

      Also his advice about physical separation is critical. The moment you feel yourself getting horny(which would lead to watching porn) immediately extricate yourself from the environment. Go on a walk, go somewhere public so there is no chance you will masturbate. Exercise exercise exercise! The gym is the best outlet for that energy.

      likewise. I'm with the side of allowing all forms of hentai to exist, but what I have focused on is what hentai *doesn't* do rather than what it does, missing the most important part of it all; it's porn. I feel like the conclusions are way too drastic. But I think that we need a shift in which some safety measurements need to take place and the culture around hentai needs to change. I feel like the culture around it encourages addiction and that we don't talk about it enough.
      It's like watching someone's life rot away due to pornography and then sighing at their misery, then turning around to jack it to their favorite hentai artists work in a room of tissues.
      The first time I came across hentai was when I was a child. Well, I still am. It was a netorare and it was sent to me by someone 14-16 while I was 12-13.
      Which really, was to say the least, unnecessary to my development :/ And looking back, that was kinda fucked up given our ages. But anyways.
      I don't like the thought of being monitored, but I do think that parents should install that feature on their child's devices that monitors or blocks off certain sites, and that such features should be included in sites such as youtube, that blocks of content from certain channels with certain keywords. If anything that is to be legally enforced, maybe it's registering certain devices as "children's devices" and blocking off on a mass account various content.
      Because to me it's not just hentai, but y'know, different forms of media and plain old gore videos. I recently read from someone that spoke of their relationship with decapitation videos and how it had affected them growing up.
      But besides the kids part of things, this video makes me realise how much hentai truly reflects our society and affects it. Which, yeah, one way or another, all media does. But I don't think it should be censored. I don't doubt in my mind that there are possible ways to improve how hentai, or just porn in general is consumed.
      Edit: and Idk how much my consumption is going to affect me in adulthood, but those curse my little pony videos I watched when I was 8 didn't improve the quality of my life by 12 either so. Nor that girl that was showing me her panties either when I was hella curious.
      Dang, now that I think about it. I was exposed to quite a bit of gore and porn growing up.

      you should have stayed with vanilla, but you explored all of the other tags as well.
      a good way to compartmentalize it is to just treat everything it isnt possible to do as a fantasy, while anything you can and want to do can be treated as a fetish. it may sound like common sense but a lot of people blur the lines between them without even realizing it. also why did you marry someone you cant even relate to? your marriage wont last regardless of whether or not you watched hen tie, at this point im suspicious that you're just pushing your own bad decisions on *H* to validate your own marriage, when in reality it wont survive. it may sound cruel but contrary to popular belief being with someone totally contradictory to yourself will only end badly.
      edit: if you want to do something about it then a good way is to find interests that your partner likes, then change yourself to better fit what they like. they say love is a two way street but you put yourself in this position so the responsibility to change is yours. take my relationship for example, im a huge introvert that hates outdoor or noisy events, and loves quiet and cozy things, and yet despite that my best friend helps me to get over that and be more outgoing and extroverted (as excruciatingly painful as it is in more ways than one), while at the same time my bf is the opposite of me, but despite that he learned to enjoy the things i like and we're closer than ever as a result. love is a relationship of communication, understanding, and compromises.

    Jesus saved me from porn. I was around 12 when I discovered it, and my morals dissolved the more I watched it. I have OCD and have always loved Jesus, so the addiction was heavy fuel for my intrusive thoughts. I was caught in guilt and sadness, and struggled heavily trying for years to quit. I got therapy, and began to study and better my theology as well, learning to ignore my intrusive thoughts and hold tight to God. I am an incredibly obsessive and easily addicted person so this screwed up the way I saw women. Only through prayer, talking about my problems, and a rethinking of how I see porn, have I been able to resist for a substantial amount of time. I am just recently recovering and I am so happy to be free from it. Another thing you might want to talk about is male loneliness as it fueled my addiction and obsession, and prevented me from opening up to people for support.

    I'm still trying to quit hentai and porn in general... I've admittedly relapsed a few times, but with increasingly longer streaks of nofap, I can feel the difference. I have more mental clarity, confidence when talking to others, not afraid of going out and meeting people, and so on. Those moments when I relapsed felt horrible, and I vowed to double down on the good habits I've been doing like meditation and exercising (not to the point where I destroy myself though). I even start feeling disgust towards the more extreme contents, which used to be my pleasure. Feels like my mind is resetting. Let's not mention l0l1c0n as I always find that to be disgusting even during my coomer phase.
    As someone who draws myself, I want to reduce the lustful content I used to put out. Better yet, stop them altogether, and instead use my art skills towards my own goal, which is to make my own brand... kinda like Omocat. I know how porn, hentai in this case, destroys people and I don't want to be held accountable for that.

    Even when it doesn't turn into an addiction,

    alcoholism is used to drown out sorrows for
    some people.
    Incels would be among the groups particularly
    vulnerable to sex addiction, because many of

    finding a reliable woman, but also carries

    So a good start would be to stop ignoring,
    shaming, hating and sabotaging young
    guys. Because most of us grow up today
    without anyone to mentor, encourage, or
    even just listen to us when we need it.
    So we keep wandering through a fog.

    where the young men were made

    of it. Nothing good comes out of
    telling young boys that they're

    As an ex hentai addict i overcame it quickly. I started diving into self improvement once i realize i was a codependent. I started to meditate and go to the gym 4 times a week. And gladly i was from a family where almost everyone is islamic so i didnt get into hentai in a young age. I was 16 when i started using it. Do after all that inner work and improvement it was like snapping a twig. And i wasnt even fapping to it so i quickly quitted it after few relapses. I realized how fucked up this community is and used my ego to negatively reinforce myself against hentai. I gained a superiority complex over hentai addicts. Addiction is an escape from a reality. But contrary to the other beliefs you dont have to instantly change it. You can start doing somethimg absurdly small like staying off the computer for no reason for 30 seconds and start improving your life like this. And in the first days dont listen to the voices in your head because they will start putting you down. Literally talk back and soothe this voice. Then start going to the gym(ppl wont shame you for being fat) get out of the toxic communities like gaming(yes gaming is toxic), nofap(they say horseshit like "you will lose all benefits if you relapse" which is no you dont) and incels when you feel ready. I promise it will be like an instant decision. It doesnt jave to be right now. Know that what you live is a malaptive behaviour you learned as a child so its not your fault.

    Ngl videos like these make me more and more reluctant to be myself... Seeing videos like this makes me feel like I'm a terrible person because I enjoy something that most of society disapproves of. Yeah, I'm aware that porn and hentai have serious mental effects that affect A LOT of people, but just because it happens to a lot of people DOESN'T MEAN IT HAPPENS TO EVERYONE. Not everyone that watches porn is a disgusting degenerate. Not everyone that watches porn is a pedo. Not everyone that watches porn gets effected like everyone else.
    I know no one's gonna care about what I have to say or be on my side, but I don't fucking care anymore. I stopped caring about what society thinks a long time ago because it's driving me mentally insane. I can't be myself anymore because I'm always scared of being judged by society. I can't be myself because I always find myself changing how I am when around society because if not then I'll get judged. I'm fine standing my own ground because that's all I have...my fucking self and no one else. No one's on my side and I know that. If I'm on my own then so fucking be it. I don't care anymore...I have no reason to care...No reason to give a fuck...(4:00am 8/13/2023)

You absolutely are not a terrible person - laughable honestly for a Christian to accuse you of being a pedo for looking at drawn porn, when the church continues to contribute to the exploitation of minors and yet is widely socially acceptable around the world. You are being authentic - I know it sounds cliche, but to be TRULY yourself. People will always judge, let them be close minded. Better to be what you are and be honest about it, than act like a grandstanding cunt who demands that everyone cleave to his demands like an uppity child.
      And for the record, I'm on your side. Keep on trucking - I know that life is cruel and grey and some days it just sucks, but trust me, there's beautiful things there too if you look outward to find them.

      You don't need hentai or porn, you're wasting your own time for a dopamine rush that you won't use properly. You may not be a degenerate or a pedo but you're made for better than porn.

    Also the point of Hentai being more accessible doesn't hold up as well since it is a form of adult media at the end of the day which makes it subject to (rightfully) being away from the mainstream sites at least on the front pages.

    "Lolita" is actually just a name, or a nickname that existed before it became associated with lolicons. This all started because of Vladimir Nabokov's book by the same name which deals with pedofilia. However, please don't say that lolita is a synonym for a "prepubescent girl" because there are real people named Lolita. Also, the japanese lolita fashion isn't related to looking like a little kid, but the fashion was unfortunately named by people who didn't even wear it, so the creators of the fashion didn't even get to choose the name. Most Japanese lolita fashion wearers are rather disturbed when they hear what kind of connotations the word lolita has in the west. It sucks that when people hear the name of the fashion they jump into a conclusion that the fashion is somehow sexual, when it actually has very feminist roots and is supposed to be modest.

"10/10, would do again".

    Sam Loule sounds good. I am positively surprised that a psychotherapist is against hentai. When I struggled with addiction, my therapists told me my true problem was that I wanted to stop watching it and that I should consume more (no joke.)

      Really?! What country are you from? I’m from America, and I think some married couples have been advised to watch p9rn together. It’s so upsetting

      That's really bizarre your therapist told you to consume more of your addiction.

    I've now gone over 3 weeks without porn and I can say, Hentai is definitely the most damaging, especially lolicon. If you yourself are addicted, comment reader, please quit as soon as possible. There's so, so much greater things to life than pixels having sex. Honestly, it's tragic that such a versatile and cute genre is heavily associated with sexual stuff.

    If you think porn has no effect on your brain, try watching it for at least an hour late at night and then get a good night sleep immediately after. That is a messed up experience.

    There are a lot of claims of bad faith in this video, but this video is basically entirely that. Many of these arguments simply aren't used in the way he frames and he simply insults detractors. It's good he cites things, but he also fails to cite anything that contradicts his position.
    Cited studies below will have the name altered to avoid CZcams deletion, but all should be the first posts when searching.

    Addiction is suggested in at most 11% of users, and only 3% strongly(3% is consistent in other studies). Pretty low, and covered more below, but religiosity and moral incongruence were also notable factors for claimed addiction besides usage.
    Grubbs et al(2019)Self Reported Addiction
    ED is primarily affected by anxiety and distress.
    Relational satisfaction can similarly be influenced on the partner's view on p0rn.

    None of those things were ever an issue for me. Projected shame(which you dismiss in a few seconds) was literally the only issue when I was young. Dropped that and it stopped being an issue.
    4:25
    This isn't victim blaming. Those claiming additions and harms are substantially correlated with those morally opposed to p0rn(largely religious) than those not, even if some users watch less. This has been replicated in multiple studies. 4:34 is built on this dismissal and assumption of [p0rn] being the only factor. Even using this example, the distress between one who doesn't care about the health implications of cigarettes, and one who does yet still smokes would still be different which is the basis of this idea.
    Grubbs et al(2018)Moral Disapproval and Perceived Addiction
    Single case study, but treating the moral incongruence, led to stopping the use entirely. The usage was the symptom, not the cause for them.

    This argument has been made well before Loule, and we've yet to see this outside of clinical/criminal samples.
    Every population study has demonstrated p0rn either has no effect on crime, or correlates with decreases in SA, especially CSA.
    This was most obvious in Japan, which saw substantial decreases in all SA during the period h3ntai and p0rn became available in the 70's through 2000, with CSA rates being cut by 50%.
    CSA has been on a downward trend in the US since the 90's up through 2020(60% decrease), and that's when h3ntai/l0li first became accessible though the internet in the US. 20-30 years and still nothing. This is something consistently unanswered.

    The l0licon fandom has it's share of toxic members, and most people dislike l0li.
    Rika deserved to be called out, but to generalize him to others who defend it is nonsense. There's been no shortage of those arguing against l0licon or self proclaimed 'child protectors' who have be found to possess csem, or abused minors. There are plenty who harass CSA victims for defending it, and claim that they deserved their abuse or deserve more. Those who weaponize their own csem against them. Are these part of the 'normal' people you referenced? If you choose to cherry-pick examples, you can make any group look malicious. Should I assume all Catholics are represented by some 'select' examples?

    It is an absolute achievement that the government's ability to restrict what a person can view privately was revoked. A quote from Justice Thurgood Marshall from Stanley vs Georgia(1969), “If the First Amendment means anything, it means that a State has no business telling a man, sitting alone in his own house, what books he may read or what films he may watch. Our whole constitutional heritage rebels at the thought of giving government the power to control men’s minds.”
    The notion of obscenity itself is antithetical to the 1st Amendment, but a government nanny state is what Pax apparently champions.
    I've covered some of the bigger issues here, but I want to state I don't dismiss any potential harms with p0rn or h3ntai. The important part is that OP is dishonest and cherry picking their sources instead of attempting to look at the entire research. The entirely of the research suggests that a variety of factors influence potential effects from p0rn, and it's only bias that places everything on p0rn.
    If there's anyone who hates p0rn, h3ntai or l0li, fine. Just attempt to be more objective than Pax.

      Yeah, pron definitely isn't good, but it's really more of a symptom of our corrupt society rather than a cause which is something a lot of tradcons seem to miss, and the reason for that is because they're usually either simps or feminists who can't stand the thought of men cranking it to anime tiddies instead of marrying a washed up single mother.

    To me the problem with hentai,porn and ect is lack of education,empathy and knowledge. they are outlets for desire but that does not mean those desires are functional or stable. They should serve as indicators and help you understand yourself to fix yourself. With how much and fast knowledge is going to spread , rapid sexualization is gonna be inevitable the best way to combat in my opinion is to teach avoidance, consequences and that lust isn't love. We need to realize that love isn't the desire for a person that's just attraction , it's the desire to be compassionate towards them. I grew up watching/reading that type of content and I can say my curiosity in figuring out the risks like stds, curiosity in anatomy and what is lust and love are what kept me from having misconceptions so many others have had. only reason I'm glad I learned about it soon is that it helped me avoid rape on two separate occasions. I'm afraid that for others it won't be that way because of how Ed in schools is just making them susceptible to predators and unplanned pregnancies.
