So yeah… I had a problem for a while. I am a diagnosed sex addict who deals with compulsions, and porn was a little too prominent my life for a while.
*I’m just going to be upfront: I don’t watch porn anymore. I had a weird brush with the industry when I was a young attorney and it cured me for good. I am ALL about supporting sex workers, but that industry is exploitative. I digress…*
What’s worse is that I kind of watched “weird” porn. I get weird in bed so this is natural to some extent, but once when I put on porn with an ex boyfriend and he got kind of freaked out.
That’s the day I learned I watched intense porn.
So I dated a dude for a while who I got rough with and we once got on this subject. I was SHOCKED to learn he hated porn. This man was sexual AF to the point of compulsion.
*Ok… He was also HELLA hot which I think made this easier for him. He got sex pretty much whenever he wanted it… which arguably wasn’t great for his addiction.*
