reader, anonymous, writes (26 November 2007): many people struggle with this. Those who are addicted find themselves inevitably drawn to stronger and stronger material. As they go down the slippery slope they find themselves more and more drawn to the more perverse and perverted side of things. That's when it really becomes dangerous. Often they will think of ways that they can actually fulfill thier lusts or fantasies, some go on to committ criminal acts as a direct result of this. It has een found that men and women equally struggle with this. But then we are bombarded by everyt kind of media containing it and the solution is complex. The answer I have found is the Grace of God and a disciplined life. Both are necesary even for the Christian or religous.

 If a guy says he's addicted to porn then he REALLY is. Not to gross you out but i used to be a porn addict 2 years ago, and i stopped because it came to a point where i felt unsatisfied if a did not watch porn that certain day. so yes there are really porn addicts, then again some people just say they r a porn addict to be funny so you will never really know the truth unless you find out for yourself

Ya know, most are saying that those guys are addicted to porn for saying they are, but they might not be. They might just be bored and in the habit of doing that when there is nothing to do.
The real test is if they prefer it to sex, or even do that instead of other activities. For example: "I have final exams tomorrow, instead of studying, I think I'll masturbate to porn!"

Read some of the informatin on the internet about porn addiction, it is very real and can be dangerous to a relationship when a person is weak and allows it to interfere with real life relationships or it escalates into more shady areas of sexual behavior.

I don't think it is unusual for guys to look at smut every now and then. But addiction means that they are looking at this stuff at least five times a day (this was my ex bf's confession). I can't really say if that is normal or not but I can certainly say that it is something I would never put up with again. For me it was a nightmare.

 If someone says they are addicted to porn then the likellhood is they probably are. Alot of single guys out there look at porn, as well as married guys too. I woulden't say its just a guy thing either as im sure truth be told alot of woman look at it too.
