BANZA | Case Yes! They get twice as much pleasure as the ‘average’ person does! I think that is beautiful. In fact, I almost cried! Titanic did not make me cry, but that video; mind blowing! After my little pornographic expedition (Wow! that sounds wrong.), there is one thing I did not understand. How do people get addicted to porn? Seriously!? I got bored. I explored so many things but still got nothing. Two straight days and still, nothing! The first day was fun; then it got monotonous. Most of them even have the same dirty talk. How bored can someone be in life to get addicted to porn?! I just cannot fathom why someone would choose to get addicted to pornography in this world when there is cocaine or crystal meth. But, that is just my point of view. Objectively speaking, porn has always been something indecent or inappropriate in the society. When I was a little girl (well, not so little since I knew about porn), I thought all porn stars had HIV! Little did I know that there are series of medical exams that porn stars take before acting. Porn can very well be another form of entertainment for people above 18 years. Porn has saved a lot of marriages! According to Colorado psychologist David Schnarch, author of Resurrecting Sex: Solving Sexual Problems and Revolutionizing Your Relationship, porn can help foster emotional and sexual intimacy (africansindmix.com) If you are above 18, and you watch porn from time to time, it's OK. I honestly see no reason to hide or to be ashamed of it, unless you watch the nasty ones where they abuse children and senior citizens. If you do that, you are a horrible offensive (enough said) person that needs help. Other than that, I think it's no big deal. But, if you are addicted, you need Jesus in your life! I am not sure why I wrote this nor how to end it but yeah, I think porn is not that bad, (if you are not the religious type of course.) Live your life, and as my cousin Steve Jobs said, ‘Do not be trapped by dogma!’
