Side Effects of Porn

One of the more notorious effects of tolerance to sexual stimuli happens when a male porn addict finds himself in a real-world sexual situation.

The allure of a spouse barely registers a libidinous response, leading to what has been termed PIED: porn-induced erectile dysfunction. The numbers of young men experiencing erectile dysfunction would have been unthinkable in decades past before the Internet made porn so widely available. Studies show between a 600% and 3000% increase in erectile dysfunction among young men since the emergence of Internet pornography.
