First of all, people should be taught that addiction in general is natural and shouldn't be shamed. In regards to porn specifically, what has done more in recent years for the liberation and equality of black and brown people than porn addiction?? It has shown everyone in the modern world, especially Gen Z and millenials, since a very young age how desirable and great black people are. People who otherwise never would have made it out of their racist bubbles have been forcefully confronted with an undeniable reality, and it makes them cum! Women and boys. My question is, are there potentially further applications of healthy porn in the modern world, i.e. education, relationship therapy, social issues, etc. Maybe not but I am curious. It seems impossible to stop people from stumbling across it in the normal course of their lives, why not make it less clandestine and shameful, and more open and progressive?
And now lets get back to real world...

up about it Yet? If they're always making things up. Do you mean the therapists are making things up? That was kind of my point. They'll charge you to talk about your cats or baseball or your porn addiction. As I said, it's probably going to be billed as Depression, maybe anxiety or OCD.
