Re: Reverting to Form

Just using porn makes me feel horrible about myself, far from what you describe as happy. I cannot admit that using porn feels right, especially if I am motivated to relate to other people with a measure of openness. It's embarrassing to admit to using porn, which is what made me work at stopping my use of it, and it is extremely difficult for me.

All of this technology just looks like one big gigantic trap for people to think they will get some kind of replacement for the lack of intimacy they may be feeling in their lives. Porn is empty and destructive, and technology only seems to be trying to take it to the next level.

If my boss wanks it at work, am I expected to do the same?

To me, on the individual level, I find it more difficult than it should be to live without pornography. I don't think it should be this way because it is personally shameful and embarrassing.
