Utopia Talk / Politics / Porn leads to brain shrinkage
Paramount
rank | Sun Feb 10 13:26:49 2019 porn is also a health-crisis. If you agree, vote Republican. http://twi...tatus/1094339889418653696?s=21 |

A construcivist outlook is central to politics, and in general shared by many people. Without it you can’t sell simple solutions to complex problems to the worried masses. |

rank | Mon Feb 11 15:30:28 2019 It should be noted that this illustrious wellspring of knowledge cited porn addiction. I could understand where an actual medical addiction (to anything, really) could cause issues like brain shrinkage. But how many people are actually addicted to porn? Also, for certain definitions of brain, extended exposure to porn and certain types of stimulation will indeed create shrinkage in the (lower) brain. |

hood
rank | Mon Feb 11 18:35:11 2019 On which part? |
Nimatzo
rank | Mon Feb 11 18:45:01 2019 ”extended exposure to porn and certain types of stimulation will indeed create shrinkage in the (lower) brain.” Specifically the use of causal language, ”will create”. The only study I have seen on this with porn is a cross sectional study. Not that I have a thing for epidemiological studies on porn (I swear!), it would be interesting to read :-) |

rank | Mon Feb 11 18:46:45 2019 Uh. You didn't pick up on the masturbation joke? After an extended period of time, you finish and it shrinks back down. |
Nimatzo
rank | Mon Feb 11 18:52:34 2019 Yea I’m gonna leave now and never come back. |
Nimatzo
rank | Mon Feb 11 18:53:50 2019 ”For certain definitions of brain.” I hate you. |

Nimatzo
rank | Mon Feb 11 18:54:49 2019 Nice on though :-) very nice (lower) brain. |
TJ
rank | Mon Feb 11 18:56:45 2019 Paramount Member Sun Feb 10 12:57:07 They will think of something. It wouldn't be necessary since everyone would be living within the only remaining crisis. Full steam ahead! The shrinkage of brain power is being compressed. |
Nimatzo
rank | Mon Feb 11 18:58:47 2019 I insisted you were being serious even after thinking: ”certain definitions of brain” what the hell does that mean? I’m tired, it’s been a long day... |

Rugian
rank | Tue Feb 12 02:04:25 2019 I'd say ROFL @ Hood & Nim, but I'm too preoccupied with the fact that my brain just now shrunk again. |
jergul
rank | Tue Feb 12 06:54:08 2019 Ruggy Aw. Do you need a pair of tweezers and a lump of sugar to coax it back out? |
hood
rank | Tue Feb 12 07:41:53 2019 "a lump of sugar" Is this some weird fetish I've never heard of? |
