Andrew Huberman - How Porn Addiction Destroys Men’s Brains
The doctor discussed how not all "pornography is evil" but how it is consumed can negatively affect a person's sex life owing to its impact on arousal in an interview with YouTuber Chris Williamson. Neurosurgeon explains on Youtube podcast what porn does to a man’s brain:
There are good data to support the idea that if your brain learns to be aroused by watching other people have sex it is not necessarily going to carry over to the ability to get aroused when you're one-on-one with somebody else, right.
Especially young kids who are consuming a lot of pornography, the brain is learning sexual arousal to other people having sex. And you know, here I'm approaching this only through the lens of biology, right.
I'm not a, you know, I'm not a psychologist and I'm certainly not political in it in any way, at least not, I have ideas about politics but I just don't discuss them publicly.
But the idea here is that, you know, I'm not saying pornography, as a stimulus, is bad or good, what I'm saying is in its availability and its extreme forms it's a very potent stimulus and very potent stimuli of any kind - extremely palatable food, extreme pornography, extreme experiences, like bungee cord jumping - those set a threshold for dopamine release.
The higher the dopamine peak the bigger the drop afterwards and it's not that you drop to baseline you drop below baseline.
