Bump10 Ways to Fight Pornography
A recent study asked a group of kids how often their peers look at **** online. They responded that it was often. The study also asked what parental controls were in place on their devices, and almost all said none โ because their parents trusted them. These parents have no idea what their children are seeing.
Why are controls so critical? First, the average age of a childโs first exposure to pornography is 11. So if thatโs the average, some children are seeing it much earlier. Furthermore, research is beginning to give us the full, frightening picture of what **** does to a brain and to a life. Much like substance abuse, it alters the brain, creating a need for a level of stimulation that a healthy, marital sex life doesnโt always provide. It sets our children up to have a distorted view of sex and suffer from a desire that canโt be satisfied.
Why are so many dads turning a blind eye to this problem? Is it because they donโt think itโs a problem? Is it because of their own **** use? Maybe they feel hypocritical setting up boundaries for their kids that they themselves canโt hold. If this is you, we want you to know that itโs not too late to protect your children, and there is hope for you too. Here are 10 ways to fight pornography:
1. Admit you have a problem.
We live in a world that wants us to make allowance for justifying and tolerating almost every off-color thing we could think of. One of the best things you can do for yourself, your marriage and your children is to admit you have a problem with pornography.
2. Invite trusted friends to encourage you and hold you accountable.
We would also suggest bringing your wife in on your struggle. Voicing your struggle to others and admitting you have a problem is a huge step in the right direction.
3. Online accountability.
Use software to monitor your online activity. Covenant Eyes is a great resource for men. It allows you to receive your accountability partnerโs reports weekly for the sites they visit and the searches they make. It lets you know when you need to follow up with each other on questionable activity. Finally, it allows you to celebrate with each other in putting online struggles to death.
4. Set boundaries with your mobile device.
Nowadays, our smartphones and tablets are even more of a gateway to pornography than a desktop computer. The same online accountability applies to your mobile device. Set boundaries and use software to monitor all online activity.
5. If you have offline pornography at your disposal, destroy it.
If you are wanting to fight your addiction to pornography but are hanging on to that magazine or [words=[URL]http://www.mattersofsize.com/mosdvd.htm]DVD[/words[/URL]] (in its secret hiding place) then your โfightโ is really just a masquerade. Man up, and destroy those items. Right now.
6. Take all forms of media seriously.
Donโt think to yourself that TV shows or movies that emphasize sexual situations or portray women in the wrong light are harmless. Even if they are not considered โ****,โ they are damaging. If youโre struggling with pornography, these types of entertainment will only make your struggle more difficult.
7. If you are married, take a step back and think on your marriage.
Are you satisfied and happy in your marriage? Whatโs awesome about your marriage? What is lacking? Are you content with the level of sexual intimacy within your marriage? These are great questions to ask yourself. They just might lead you to the root cause for your addiction.
8. Realize that you didnโt just become addicted to ****.
How you conduct yourself in public and where you look every day have greatly influenced where you find yourself today. That long stare at the passing woman, the double take at the lady you just walked by, the thoughts that come to mind when you see the magazines in the checkout lane at the grocery storeโฆ This is where the battle starts in the everyday scenarios and situations. Fight the good fight here too. Guard your eyes and guard your mind.
9. Take a second and think beyond the images or videos youโre looking at.
This is a person, a real woman, a human being created by God, just like you. Sheโs somebodyโs daughter, sister, or even mother. Think of what her life must be like in front of the camera day after day โ exploited and made insanely vulnerable. Chances are she is wrapped up in some kind of string of human sex trafficking and your addiction is helping to fund this multibillion-dollar business. She is not there for your enjoyment. She is being held captive and more than likely is crying out for help.
10. Your pornography addiction is a heart issue first and foremost.
You are exchanging truth for a lie. You are voluntarily placing your affections on the cheap thrills that are ultimately fleeting and leave you feeling worthless. You were created for God, by God. Ask God to help you every time you are tempted.
I daresay, It was so meaningful to me. Pornography shows us ridiculous and huge things. That's the reason why people think that their own penis is quite small or they can't give pleasure to women. But, One thing is certain, Respect and conversation are quite important to say.10 Ways to Fight Pornography

Amen my brotherQuite right, Sir! Amen!
Do you have a wife?I honestly love adult entertainment because I learned to use it as a tool. I use it to edge. What Iโve noticed is that it he visual stimuli is what is so toxic. Masturbation should be from mental imagery. I use adult entertainment for the sound of the moans but I close my eyes and imagine my own scenario to the noise. I have really bad ADHD so the sound keeps me focused. Otherwise Iโll start wondering off and Iโll be tugging on a flaccid dick thinking about what I forgot to order on Amazon. Real talk. Itโs not what you do, itโs how you do it. And what you do it for. People condemn adult entertainment so often but it is also a beautiful thing if you find a way to make it beautiful. I prefer amateur adult entertainment because thereโs more reality to it. I used to jerk off so much that now one forearm is permanently thicker than the other so I know the pain of adult entertainment addiction. But itโs not the adult entertainment. Itโs the ejaculation. Once you find the power of semen retention, no weapons formed against your wang shall prosper. Sex is just as if not more addictive if you ejaculate every time. The power is in the withholding of your seed. Once I learned of semen retention, I was able to enjoy all the sex and adult entertainment I wanted without draining my kundalini energy. Start with complete abstinence of all sexual gratification for 6-9 months. You will start having teenage spontaneous erections like crazy. Do advanced Kegel routines and reverse Kegel like a mad man. Once you reach your abstinence goal, start slow and work on edging. Gain that mental over physical power. Learn to enjoy the process of reaching orgasm over the orgasm itself. The journey will begin to feel better than the destination. Itโs the ejaculation thatโs the enemy. Thatโs for reproduction. Once you learn to edge you will find the beauty of full body non ejaculatory orgasms. I love adult entertainment. I love it because I have power over it. It no longer has power over me. I love sex because I can go without coming.
Amen!porno is evil
Excellent post! I'm so happy that you have entered a great deal of information.And hopefully other brothers will see this and get serious about this terrible sinthe best way to fight pornography:
1. find the place where you usually watch adult entertainment. adult entertainment is a habit tied to specific situations, environments, and moments of privacy. we rarely have many places where we can do it. for example, you cannot watch adult entertainment on the bus.
2. identify the device you use to watch adult entertainment. think about it, we all have a routine. some lie in bed, prepare tissues, open the laptop or phone, etc. find those cues and routines, and break them.
3. put a sticky note on that device: "i am disgusted by adult entertainment. i am disgusted by adult entertainment. i am disgusted by adult entertainment. i will never watch this. i will never watch this. i will never watch this." read it out loud when you see it.
identify every step in your ritual, and at each step put a barrier so watching adult entertainment becomes harder and harder.
also, change your identity around it. tell yourself you find it disgusting and that you cannot possibly watch it. in time, you will believe it. "tell a lie enough times and people will believe it."
i never had a problem with adult entertainment, last time i watched adult entertainment and masturbated was when i was 16 years old (now i am 26), but i broke some bad habits not by restricting myself, but by changing how i viewed the habit.
think about it, if you live in a 3rd-world country, you might see taking a shower every day as wasteful, โwe do not have easy access to water, why are you showering daily?โ
but in a 1st-world country, you would be disgusted by not showering every day, right?
identity and worldview shape our reality.
p.s. i lied, i did watch adult entertainment from time to time, but only to learn things to do in bed.![]()
As a Christian man, adult entertainment is sin to me, its Lust, i fight the addiction every day not to watch. Its hard to do! I pray to God about it dailyYour both right adult entertainment is a sick poison that will destroy the way you think about women. God tells us to have respect and love with one another, not to just over. It took me several tries to quit completely and the last time I conquered with help of the Holy Spirit. God be with all who are suffering from this sickness
Amen!As a Christian man, adult entertainment is sin to me, its Lust, i fight the addiction every day not to watch. Its hard to do! I pray to God about it daily
