I have to tip my hat to my guest, Matt Sinkovitz. Not only has he taken on the topic of how porn affects our lives, he’s made it his primary gig.
Right out of the gate, we address the concept of porn addiction. You’ll appreciate Matt’s candid take on this loaded topic.
And with the global percentage of Internet traffic that’s porn-related, could it be true that virtually everyone is watching it? In that context, how does a guy reconcile his deep feelings of shame and guilt over doing so? What are some of the particularly jarring and at times unexpected sources and consequences of that shame?
Do most men really have schlongers as big as male porn stars? Are all porn actresses being exploited and/or trafficked? Isn’t porn sex nothing like real-world sex anyway?
What’s the real-world difference between watching porn and satisfying oneself using pure imagination? Should getting a hot girlfriend or wife be a reasonable cure for the desire to watch porn?
Is there a correlation between porn usage and other negative patterns in our lives…even at an unconscious level?
So let’s say we’re successful in quitting porn…what real-world advantages can we expect to gain from that?
Should we go full-on ‘no fap’?
How can we as men overcome hiding in the darkness to find the community and support necessary to succeed?
And hold on a second…is porn really all bad? Is there a counterpoint that outlines some of the benefits of watching it? Listen and be both challenged and amazed.
