New 20-year-olds are having more and more problems in the bedroom (when having sex): they are literally addicted to sex on the web, at least according to a study published in Psychology Today.
The problem, especially in the future, is much more serious than it seems: it is a mass psychological problem capable of causing the next generation to lose libido up to 30 years earlier than expected.
How is it possible?
According to the report, overexposure to explicit sexual images and videos has resulted in a decline in interest in 'normal' sexual encounters, including those with real women. Psychology Today focuses on the characteristics of the compulsive porn user: he can end up watching multiple videos in as many windows, searching for scenes repeatedly, jumping from one topic to another between one video and another. All free, all accessible, all available in seconds 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
After an initial period of 'balance', compulsive porn users overstimulate a chemical agent, dopamine (which is usually the driving force of desire): when the libido mode is constantly on 'fire', the body gets used to it and for experience the same reactions, you will have to look for ever greater stimuli: a mechanism similar to that of drug addicts.
If you think that viagra can remedy, you are wrong
Sexual aid drugs (such as Viagra or Cialis) work by stopping a vasodilator called cGMPS: as a result of this action, they produce an erection: if the libido is zero, the 'mechanical' erection will still be there, but you will not experience any pleasure in the sexual act.
The future? It's made of abstinence (from the web)
The only possible cure is to avoid porn on the web at all costs: to recover normal levels of dopamine, a stop of 6 to 12 weeks is necessary, complete with "abstinence crises that cause insomnia, irritability, panic , concentration problems and even cold-like symptoms."
