is porno adictive?
 
i have no proof or anything of the sort
but is it true that pornography is adictive to the human mind?(this includes hentai) alot of men are atracted to pornography(for obvious reasons)
and some women watch it also, but is it addictive like a drug or somethin?
can you start watching it and stop at any moment wihtout your mind or body asking for more?

Anything can be addictive. It all depends on the individual.

Like how you seem to be addicted to making 10 new threads every day.

Physically, no.

Mentally, yes.

stay on topic, the fact that physically your not addicted sustains the fact that mentally you are? since the body reacts accordingly to the brain then that means that if the brain was not attentinve to pornography then watching it wouldn't turn someone on correct?

There's a huge difference between a physical and mental addiction.

kyeruu 2007-02-01 11:23 AM

but mental addiction can sometimes lead to a physical one? like drugs
first your mind becomes addicted then your body becomes addicted

No.

Go learn what the difference between mental and physical addiction is.

Porno could be physically addictive tho if you HAVE to use it to masturbate
Right?

Right?

Masturbation is not a physical necessity, rather it is a psychological one. Plus the dependency on pornography in order to orgasm is also a psychological condition.

I probably made my previous statements too authoritatively. Those are mere speculations. However, introspection does lead me to those conclusions.

It can be addictive. Depends on the person. It's like how some people are addicted to marijuana. It's mental and/or psychological.

You're an idiot.

There is nothing in marijuana that can make your body physically addicted to it. Therefore, it's a psychological addiction.

What's hard to understand about this people? If you are addicted to something, it's either because of a chemical dependancy that your body has formed, or you're psychologically addicted to it.

Chemical dependancy could most likely be shown to be a different thing than physical addiction, but they are pretty much in the same boat, and physical addiction is also caused by a certain chemical.

Marijuana has no addictive chemicals in it, and people who smoke marijuana are not physically addicted to it. What's addictive about marijuana is the feeling you get when you use it, therefore it is a psychological addiction.

I think KagomJack pretty much stated it was a psychological addiction, KA.

Doh, I misread "psychological" as "physical." I thought he was saying it could be both mental or physical.

Disregard me then.

KagomJack 2007-02-03 01:35 AM

I smoke a bit and I'm quite aware that there's nothing physically addictive about it.
