JWeinCom said: I'm pretty sure that every male I know, and a good portion of females, watch pornography. Pretty much all of them now engage in responsible roles in society, respect women, and have no criminal record. Considering we're gamers, we should see through this nonsense. It's the same BS you have with gaming all the time. This guy played Call of Duty for hours a day and killed someone. Same thing. There are people who are not mentally or emotionally equiped to deal with the world due to genetics, or upbringing or whatever. When these people engage in destructive behavior, we want an easy answer. It was the rap music he listened to, the porn he watched, the game he played, Marilyn Manson, etc. We blame media consumption, and in doing so, we address the symptom and not the condition. |
This isn't really about blame but about the observations that are being made.
If you watch insomniac's videos, there is actually an effect that porn addiction has on the brain, and it can even cause ED, when breaking the addiction there are reverse trends that are being witnessed.
Again, not about blaming anyone. If you read through the content again or watch the video with that optic, you'll see it very differently.
