sad and dumb as shit

**Shiroikage** · 2012-09-04 20:02

lol

**Howie Roary** · 2012-09-04 20:04

shiro I was hoping you would weigh in on this, in your esteem, does this science hold up?

**Shiroikage** · 2012-09-04 20:30

no, it sounds completely made up and probably is, or at the very least, extrapolated to something it doesn't actually apply to

**Howie Roary** · 2012-09-04 20:36

I considered the possibility that this whole thing is fallible, but I decided at that point that I am fine with willful ignorance, should that be the case. I've always felt uncomfortable at how much I engage in fapping and the way I look at women. I feel that the end results (scientifically accurate or not) contain enough benefits that I am comfortable moving forward with it

personally I wonder if these scientists are closet roman catholics, yikes

**Day** · 2012-09-04 20:39

i am uncomfortable with how much you talk about jerking your shit to complete strangers

this whole thing is so fucking lol

**Howie Roary** · 2012-09-04 20:40

well I am comfortable with it, so that's ok

notes from OPs Ted vid

"In response to Philip Zimbardo's "The Demise of Guys?" TED talk, Gary Wilson asks whether our brains evolved to handle the hyperstimulation of today's Internet enticements. He also discusses the disturbing symptoms showing up in some heavy Internet users, the surprising reversal of those symptoms, and the science behind these 21st century phenomena.

More About Gary Wilson

Gary is host of www.yourbrainonporn.com. The site arose in response to a growing demand for solid scientific information by heavy Internet erotica users experiencing perplexing, unexpected effects: escalation to more extreme material, concentration difficulties, sexual performance problems, radical changes in sexual tastes, social anxiety, irritability, inability to stop, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms.

As a physiology teacher with a particular interest in the latest neuroscience discoveries, Gary was aware that their symptoms might be the result of addiction-related brain changes. Applying the website's concepts of brain plasticity, many former users have braved withdrawal, reversed their symptoms and restored normal sexual responsiveness.

The site has been linked to from hundreds of threads in forums from over thirty countries, with posts numbering in the thousands. Gary blogs for "Psychology Today" and "The Good Men Project" on the extreme plasticity of adolescent brains, the evolutionary context for today's flood of novel cyber "mates," and the neurochemical reasons why superstimulating Internet delivery has unexpected effects on the brain."

if he blogs for psychology today then i have completely lost any respect that i may have theoretically had for him

**MF Perm tha Fineass** · 2012-09-04 20:41

shiroi is a child in comparison to the neuroscientists and professors who have done studies and given talks regarding dopamine addiction. not sure what he's saying is being extrapolated from what when there are studies being done on this by people far more accomplished than a guy who posts on BG.

I mean, 30 years ago, can you imagine your dad and his friends having a conversation about prostate cancer? having a warm bath to check your nuts for lumps?

men's health is squeamish but I think there's worthwhile benefits in here. Plus, other people go through similar struggles and attachments, so I don't mind providing some insight

I'd have to double check but I believe all the studies listed from 2009 - present were not published via blog

it's different in person, although I did tell my brother about the possible benefits of not fapping

I've had roommates as well as tact.

**Rhyis.** · 2012-09-04 20:45

**MF Perm tha Fineass** · 2012-09-04 20:46

I'd rather talk about my touching dick on BG than sound like a faggot and talk about my emotions

**MF Perm tha Fineass** · 2012-09-04 20:46
