The Impact of Pornography on Today’s Youth

The Problem of Erectile Dysfunction in Young People

According to an analysis coming from a renowned university (or so it is said), a considerable number of young people, as well as middle-aged people, experience erectile dysfunction problems due to excessive consumption of violent pornography. Some might think they refer to current political debates, but in reality it is a more complex phenomenon. Attributing the problem to pornography is a simplistic way to avoid delving into the root of emotional difficulties. Instead of carrying out an internal examination, we choose to look outward.

The Nature of Addictions

But have you ever asked yourself the question of why these men, whether young or not, develop this dependency? Every addiction is usually closely linked to an immediate and extraordinary pleasure, which can lead people to even forget their own identity. The incessant search for that admirable sensation can build an illusory perception of happiness. However, these types of addictions, whether to pornography, social networks, or food, become mirages that deceive us into believing that happiness lies in the constant consumption of these external stimuli.

Reality vs. The fantasy

When it comes to erectile dysfunction, it is almost laughable to think that extreme pornography is solely to blame for a lack of morning sex drive. If a mental health specialist were to propose such an idea, he or she would need to reorient his or her career to a different field. The compulsion to consume pornography should not be seen simply as a symptom, but as a manifestation of deeper emotional imbalances. While the popular narrative holds that watching an idealized type of sex, where women are belittled and men glorified, results in a disconnection from the physical reality of living with other people, there is an absence of discussion about the need to discern between fiction and what human intimacy actually entails.

Challenges in Modern Society

Contemporary youth face an environment that can be demotivating; they are presented with a gloomy and apocalyptic panorama in which they are led to believe that happiness is found in consumption, while they are blamed for the conditions in which they live. The truth is that we have bequeathed them a world full of challenges and difficulties.

The Search for Extreme Experiences

Today, many young people are forced to seek experiences that are intense in order to feel satisfaction. This desire may originate in a family environment where they have been encouraged to always receive immediate gratification and find it difficult to accept refusal. Many of them seem to lack a solid self-evaluation and suffer when facing the reality of their lives, prone to disappointment in a context where appearance often outweighs essence.

The Roots of Dissatisfaction

An unfortunate result of this situation is that many of these young people fail to enjoy the simple, small pleasures that life can offer. They face an existential void that is often indescribable. In addition, they point to parental role models who have not strived to achieve their true happiness, thus perpetuating cycles of dissatisfaction. There are so many ‘buts’ and unresolved issues that the list could be endless.

Diversity in Experiences

It is crucial to understand that each individual is a different world, and therefore, erectile dysfunction occurs for varied and particular reasons. Reducing these factors to a mere after-dinner discussion of the consumption of extreme pornography would be disrespectful to our capacity for analysis. There are many pornography consumers who have no problems maintaining healthy intimate relationships; There are even those who manage to balance both practices without setbacks.

The Pressure of Ideals

Perhaps they have set such unattainable standards for themselves or have them set for themselves that it is difficult for them to enjoy the simple pleasures of life. As dissatisfaction increases, many feel the need to consume more than what provides momentary satisfaction. Furthermore, the reality they face is permeated by alarming job insecurity; They lack the opportunity for independence due to salaries that do not correspond to the cost of living and rent prices that are beyond their means.

Evasion of Reality

It should not be surprising that they look to extreme pornography as a refuge of escape in their lives. In the midst of such a bleak panorama, the need to disconnect from such an unfavorable environment becomes a matter of emotional survival. Therefore, your choices can be seen more as a way of dealing with reality than simply a personal preference.
