My bro is addicted to porn! is that bad?!


Question: ?


Answers: ?

to tell you the truth i think that aint really really a problem, i just think he needs to get laid.lol...

Depends how old is he?

no it's not bad
it's totally normal
i think every guy is addicted to porn.
some more than others.

duh! Hope you don't go after your bro...

yes thats bad.. =S

as long as he's not addicted to cheetos to he'll be fine

it can warp his understanding of real life and get him in trouble.

but without loser guys, the goods ones would not have anyone to be better than.

if he's a teenager or early 20's then... yeah it's pretty normal but if he dosent get out of it then that's when the problems start happening

leave him alone! Porn is better then drugs & porn is keeping his focus for now. Nothings wrong with wan
king!

how old and always knock before visiting his room.

Its natural for guys to look at women. Let him go. But he shouldnt restrict himself from meeting real girls.

no! let him take care of himself. at least he aint addicted to crack

Bad for your Bro...

Good for the porn industry...

Any addiction is bad....

Could be if he is obsessed. Sometimes, people addicted to porn use it as an excuse to commit crimes of a sexual nature. Once the crime has been committed, their addiction is their excuse. If he watches it every waking minute, yeah, it's a problem.

Yes, any addiction is bad news.

Being addicted to anything is bad, but how do you know he's addicted?

Yes, it is bad. Like you have said, it can be an addiction, just like being addicted to drugs or alcohol. It can drag a person down, cause them to lose their job, break apart relationships, and generally ruin his life. Encourage your bro to get treatment from a psychologist right away.

yes, no matter how old.. thats really bad

no way doin' it rules. and if you cant get any then there is only one way to get what is needed.

Depends on how much time he spends on it. Addicted to anything is not good.

I think that depends on how addicted. Every normal guy watches port but it's those guys that confuse how a real women is and a porn star that have the problem. My bro in law hasn't had a girlfriend in years and I seriously think that his standards have been set way too high because of the way porn stars look.

Only if it involves animals or children.

Well if he is married it could be bad. But if it takes control of his life then I would say yeah. However you also have to look at what he may be going through, say he lost a girlfriend or he is stresed out. those are some of alot of resons why he could be doing it .Give it time and if it becomes a major problem tell someone.

MEN RELY ON VISUAL STIMULATION

Any addiction is bad as it deprives us of choice.

What difference will it make to your brother if you find an answer to your question?

Is he aware of a problem?

Oh no! That's really bad. If he's a catholic christian, it's against the seven capital sins which is lust. He should realize this that even with the sexual urges he should control it.

how old is he ??

If he looks at it like every now and then its okay, but if he is addicted by like looking it everyday then that is bad. Its worst if he is looking at porn every time he turns on the computer. So yeah its bad if its to serious, but if its like once in a while because he is bored then its normal. But if its an addiction then its bad. So i suggest you try and get him to lighten up on the porn, though you can't really blame him if he is a teenager, though most girls don't like if there bfs watch porn, so it could cause problems in the long run.

there seems to be a TREMENDOUS amount of ignorance on this subject out there.

in my professional and personal opinion ( i am a psychotherapist and specialize in treating sex addicts) this is one of THE most devastating addictions.

too many people think that looking at porn EVEN a little is ok. hmmm shall we do a little cocaine today? SAME THING!!! youre saying: no it isnt... sorry, studies have been done. CONCLUDING: a man looking at even attractive women (if he is hetero) produces the SAME chemicals (vis a vis: DRUGS) in the brain as snorting a line of cocaine.

the evidence is present. so, is it bad: EMPIRICALLY, YES!!!

can you do a thing about it: probably not... however you CAN go to a 12 step program called COSA it is for friends and family of sex addicts.

Yes. Just by saying "addicted" and you labeled it already. It is a sickness and your brother needs help. Porn is gross, unhealthy and it ruins many relationships, divides families ans make you its slave. It is not easy to quit but it is not impossible. It takes a lot of will power but it is all worth it. Help your brother become a free person .
