For Those Of Us That Grew Up With The Internet....

Do you think the internet has made us completely (or seriously) desensitized?

Is there anything out there that will still make us cringe? I'm talking movies, TV shows and whatever happens across our screens while browsing?

I can look at a "porn" video some idiot friend of mine sends me thinking it will gross me out but I sort of just shrug my shoulders and move on.

Wondering if the rest of you feel this way about desensitization potentially caused by the internet.

We as a society, specially gay men, have become way over-sensitized with so much political correctness going on.

It's mainly porn that desensitizes, not so much the internet. It actually rewires your brain, kinda like drugs do. You can read various articles on it: https://www.google.com/#q=porn+rewires+your+brain

I don't know if porn is the only culprit though. Then again, some of the nastier things you see online are probably considered "porn" but I don't really feel that sites like consumption junction for instance is a porn site.

(If that site still exists, no one was sent me links to nasty on there for quite some time)

Since my Iboga session - which I believe kinda "resets" the brain and makes you sensitive to life/beauty of life again (as many others report, as well) - anytime I wasted seed I was feeling more and more desensitized. If you try not to watch porn or have meaningless sex for even a week, you'll very likely see a difference, for the better.

A bunch of people on No Fap have gone for some time (even years) without porn (and some without premarital sex, as well) and have been reporting amazing results.

Here's just one example: https://www.google.com/#q=nofap+reddit+30+days

The longer people go, the better the results, generally.
