I recently did a podcast with the host of Red Pill Philosophy titled “Porn is Poison To Your Penis”. It got over 20,000 views within the first day which made it our most viewed podcast. I guess a lot of guys are starting to realize how they’re fucking up their lives with this crap.
I have personally experienced the negative effects of it myself. It wasn’t pretty. It messed me up for a while but I’ve managed to reverse most of the negative effects.
If you are a man and you are alive today, you probably watch porn. And you probably watch it often. In that case, you NEED to read this. You are literally fucking up your life for a few minutes of instant gratification.
The negative effects of porn tend to bleed over into other areas of your life as well. An example of how porn affects other areas of your life is: Health. If you eat a lot of processed food and don’t do any type of exercise then chances are you won’t have energy and zest for your life. Porn is exactly like this. It’s negative effects permeate every aspect of your life. Porn ultimately weakens you and emasculates you.
Porn Will Condition You Into Having
Unwanted/Weird Sexual Tastes
Your brain is plastic and unlike previously thought, it changes and molds itself with your experiences. “Neurons that fire together wire together” is an expression commonly used in neuroplasticity to refer to how the brain creates change itself.
Porn has the capacity to alter your brain plasticity. When you orgasm, your neurons are firing at an extremely high rate. Which means that every time you orgasm to porn, you are literally wiring your neurons to fire at a high rate to whatever porn you’re watching. There are many ways this can go bad…
For one, you are wiring yourself to respond sexually to a screen. Which means that when you are actually in front of a real woman, you will not have an intense sexual response to her. Your desire will go down because your brain is more familiar/wired to respond to images on a screen.
Another problem that can happen with porn is the conditioning of your brain to unwanted/weird sexual tastes. Porn offers an infinite variety of categories that satisfy your brain’s constant desire for novelty. The newer and weirder it is, the higher the dopamine spike in your brain.
What ends up happening is that you start to condition yourself (through orgasm) to respond sexually to stimuli that would have previously disgusted you. This can lead to a very confusing and frustrating experience. Reboot your brain by staying away from all pornography for 90 days (and for the rest of your life eventually).
Porn Will Destroy Your Ability To Seduce Women
Before porn, a man had to go through an entire process to seduce a woman and get her to sleep with him. Many factors come into play during a seduction: Social skills, foreplay, talking, dating, fitness, social status, time, etc…
Now you can be the biggest piece of shit on the planet and expect to have high-quality women a click away. That’s not how it works buddy. To get good at seducing women, you will have to go through a learning curve that can be time-consuming.
Every time you watch porn you are sending signals to your brain that you’ve got sexual options readily available. You end up losing all desire to actually go out and face the challenge of picking up a woman in real life. You end up losing appreciation for all of the little things that go into a seduction (i.e eye contact, body language, anticipation, passion, anxiety, etc).
The more you watch porn, the more you become disconnected from the reality of actually being a guy who gets laid. Porn will definitely mess with your ability to seduce a woman from start to finish. And you will definitely lose that edge that makes you attractive to women.
Porn Will Deplete Your Desire For Sex & Life
Due to the unlimited amount of porn at your fingertips, constant ejaculation will leave you depleted of your sex drive. Napoleon Hill and other great minds often talk about the power of your sexual energy. Your sexual energy is precious and is definitely a factor when it comes to your drive.
Just think about it. It requires a large amount of energy to create sperm. It is a fluid that LITERALLY creates life and you are flushing it down the toilet for 2 minutes of stimulation! Abstain from porn for a month and you’ll feel invincible. So many men report insane amounts of changes after quitting porn. Check out some testimonials here.
Personally, there was never a time when I felt hungry for life and energized after watching porn. I always end up feeling depleted and lazy. It might not be as bad now if you are in your 20’s but the more you age, the more your sex drive goes down. So you have to be extra careful as you grow older to conserve your energy and master it.
Build the right habits now! Porn will make you addicted to a constant daily release of energy. This is a problem because then you will think that this low level of energy is normal. You’ll forget how it feels to have loads of energy and drive. You’ll be a lazy piece of shit and you’ll think it’s normal.
Furthermore, It’s too easy to watch porn. And it’s a challenge to be a real man and actually have a fulfilling sex life. Get rid of this shit now. Be a warrior. Stop being a weird curled up, depleted, screen-addict. I have never met anybody who said that they regret quitting porn.

Let’s grow stronger. Fuck this porn shit.
Sincerely,
Maximillian Giamarco
I quit jacking off and watching porn as soon as I watched that podcast, I’ve been getting laid with this awesome Chilean girl that my energy levels wouldn’t have allowed me to accommodate if I’d been in old habits, I feel confident that this is going to be the way I live from now on, thanks for the advice.
Glad to hear it my friend!
Me too. waking from all these sexual distractions actually made me double down on the great sex i have with my girl. thanks mbro!
You are very welcome!
Thank you, Maximillian. In the face of self development, and in all honesty, I too transcended a period of addiction, it can be quite tempting. After listening to the Red Pill Philosophy podcast in its entirety, apart from contemplating the sexualization of technology, it was a sort of confirmation. You guys are an inspiration, I shall continue to be a warrior for the rest of my natural life.
Jack, Im so glad to hear it man. It’s amazing to see men realizing the power to be gained from transcending addiction to instant gratification/toxic stimulus such as porn. Great stuff man!
The problem now adays is with actual real women though….because women have become so fucking ungrateful and hypergamous that they don’t deserve any attention in the first place. Even the pathetically ugly women who would be lucky to be rated a 3 or 4, think now that they’re somehow entitled to a guy who’s a 10 and will not give any other guy the time-of-day . I’m now beginning to see why some MGTOW people don’t want anything to do with women: for the simple fact that most of these bitches out there don’t deserve attention in the first place.
Yeah, I could see that Dave. It’s a sad reality but it’s also not completely lost man. What are your priorities? Do you know what you want? Is it a girlfriend, potential wife? Or is it a few one night-stands or a fuck-buddy? Once you know exactly what you want, you can move towards that direction. Combine that with going to the gym, developing your character and style, and you’ll be miles ahead of most. Women are hypergamous and getting a shit ton of attention that’s true but there’s also a lack of masculine men in the market place so go and fill that void!
believe me, I’ve tried to fill that void….now something strange is that I’ve always been the most masculine, well kept, great body guy around wherever I go, but still even I don’t any chances. That’s why I think women’s standards have become unattainable. I know I’m a catch, so if they don’t even want me, then they must feel entitled to celebrity guys like Brad Pitt/channing Tatum.
Lol, Brad Pitt & Channing Tatum? Those are very specific examples. If all the women in the world only settled down for those guys, we’d die of depopulation. Your case may be very specific so that’s why I say email me a more detailed question for a video response.
I wish I was joking….but at least in my area (New York), if a guy is not in the top 3% echelon of men, he will not be given any chances and will be brushed aside like he’s nothing. I’ve seen this dynamic play-out every single time I’ve gone out for the past couple years. Like I said, I wish it was all a joke but its no laughing matter that it’s come to this shit
I also used to live and game in some upper class areas of NYC. I know what you’re talking about. But I still managed to find a girlfriend with whom I have a great relationship with. It took a lot of dates that went nowhere to get to that point. But all I can say is this: It’s a numbers game. You need to learn patience. That or decrease your standards…
Thank you very much Maximillian for the article. I would like to read more of such articles.
You’re welcome!
Stoping porn also helped me loose my addiction to percocets by teaching myself to pony get dopamine from natural things in life like being around family and talking with friends and meeting new people , also my focus is at 1000% all the time and I can be laser focused on any task I need to be done throught the day , also I feel sexy and I’ve noticed way way way more women looking at me but that could also be because I’ve been at the gym everyday sometimes twice to keep myself busy, and I know a lot of guys are saying women are this and that nowadays but to be honest , AS MEN we need to be stronger , the government and feminist groups sometimes try to turn women against men and men also get hurt and push harmful messages again women , so YOU have to make the choice to be happy and POSITIVE and optimistic about the future, I use to think there is no good women out there but it’s just in my head bc I’ve been programmed from my past experiences, there are tons of women waiting for a man to be submissive too HOWEVER you must find the right women and be very selective, and looks aren’t everything, there’s tons of women that don’t look like supermodels that can make you feel like a superhero. ALL OF THIS IS ABOUT TAKING CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE BACK AND NOT BEING ATTACHED TO ANYTHING, that means even past experiences. You have to be open . No porn , gym , healthy food , less social media , block unhealthy messages and negative content, listen to love songs and old music is a really good one to boost your mood and gives you that little spark back , Picture yourself as a Warrior and tell yourself no one is going to make me lose.
