Executive Summaray

Pornography is a visual representation of sexuality that

distorts individual’s concept of the nature of conjugal relations. This
alters both sexual attitudes and behavior. It is a major threat to
marriage, family, children and to individual happiness. In
undermining marriage it is one of the factors in undermining social
stability.

Social scientists, clinical psychologists, and biologists have

begun to clarify some of the social and psychological effects, and
neurologists are beginning to delineate the biological mechanisms
through which pornography produces its powerful negative effects.

Introduction:

“We know that more than seventy to eighty percent of women

masturbate, ninety percent of men masturbate, and the rest lie”
Joycelyn Elders

Pornography or porn is simply a thing, which focuses in sex

subjects, which is designed to stimulate sexual excitement and satisfies
sexual organs for both genders.

In our today’s world, Pornography became so popular especially

on the last decade and it’s available in all media forms including TV,
DVD’s, Magazines and the Internet, Which had been addictive and easily
accessible to all boys and girls of all ages and that unfortunately includes
children.

Lets move to the next stage which pornography leads to, In spite of
sexual harassment and sexual crimes such as rape or other. My point here
is to focus on masturbation, which is also considered to be one of the
problems which pornography leads to.

Holy books, people and scientist all did talk about masturbation,
where as some agreed that it’s natural and healthy, where as on the other
hand other opposed. As far as am concerned I am not supporting either
side, am neutral and taking into consideration to respect all religious
beliefs.

offended and they where mainly girls which was expected.

This shows that’s it’s true that in our today’s world people starting
watching porn starting from the age of 12, Where as I do know a
friend of mine who actually did started watching porn from the age of
8 and that was through an easy access of a computer.
Q2 - Have you watched a pornographic movie?

a) Yes
b) No
c) N/A (Not available)

actually male students which is expected as it is available in all media
forms.

In this result we can’t say If people do really enjoy masturbating or

not, Our result shows almost close results between the three options
and that was due to the lack of people doing this survey but according to
the internet statistical results it showed that different studies have
found that masturbation is frequent in humans. Alfred Kinsey's 1950s
studies on US population have shown that 92% of men and 62% of
women have masturbated during their lifespan. Similar results have
been found in a 2007 British national probability survey. It was found
that, between individuals aged 16 to 44, 95% of men and 71% of women
masturbated at some point in their lives. 73% of men and 37% of women
reported masturbating in the four weeks before their interview, while
53% of men and 18% of women reported masturbating in the previous
seven days

I personally totally agree with “No”, Because the masturbation

process can still be done by using your imagination but we don’t
deny that porn is really helpful on this case but it’s still considered
unneeded.

agreed with no too, I personally cant really say yes or no but I do kind
of support that yes masturbation is one of the human needs but that’s
only under one condition, If you don’t have a sex partner. I believe if
you do have a sex partner you wont need masturbation.

Yes, I can say that we all can live without masturbation because
it’s not like a think which we totally cant live without like water or
food for example, Where as I believe that yes masturbation is kind of
a human need and it’s a human right to have it .

Causes
- Boredom
- Wild sexy environment
- Masturbation is considered the safest way for avoiding STD’s
(sexual transmitted diseases)
- Gives you patience to real sex

Boredom:
“You'll find boredom where there is the absence of a good idea”
Earl Nightingale

Its true that boredom could lead to many problems or

addictions such as smocking and drugs, where as one of them is
pornography and masturbation and to be frank with you, I personally
got leaded to pornography through boredom.

Wild sexy environment:

“I was the good Blond girl, but I wanted to have the dresses and the high
heels. I wanted the funky, sexy name.”
Izabella Scorupco 

In our today’s life, Wild sexy environment is present

everywhere and the closest example is our university (MSA) am not
actually criticizing my own university but that’s a fact especially to
me as a guy, I see it true.

12
Report: Porn Addiction & Masturbation
English 102
SPRING 2010

Studies had been done and that’s actually natural for a man to
get turned on or we can say erected when he’s surrounded with a
wild environment so the easiest way to satisfy him self is just
masturbating to what he saw.
Masturbation is considered the safest way for avoiding STD’s
(sexual transmitted diseases)

“Masturbation is our first and natural form of sexual activity and if that's
inhibited or damaged, then we suffer for the rest of our lives” 
Betty Dodson 

According to the latest scientific results, It had been proved

that masturbation is actually the safest way to avoid STD’s and yes its
actually true if we thought of it logically because during masturbation
we just do have a direct contact with our bare hands and the sex
organ.

Moreover, Couple of decades ago scientist used to say that

masturbation actually affects our health in a negative way such as it
may lead to infertility, blindness, backache and knee problems but
today’s scientist actually proved them wrong and had declared that
there is nothing wrong with masturbation and it’s totally healthy.

Gives you patience to real sex

"Infinite patience brings immediate results."

Wayne Dyer

It’s obvious that anything which satisfies you sexually will give
you patience to an another sex or a real sex and that what
masturbation and pornography actually do, It just keeps you patient
till you find the right sex partner. Which I personally see it an
advantage or a positive point of masturbation. Moreover,

13
Report: Porn Addiction & Masturbation
English 102
SPRING 2010

Masturbation also gives you patience to avoid sexual crimes such as

rape.

Effects:

- Porn addiction
- Porn makes men get bored with their own wives
- Reduction in semen production
- Reduces the stiffness of erection
- Acting un normal with real girls in life

Porn addiction

Porn addiction is an addiction which many believes that it is un

treatable, like what once a doctor said you wont cut your penis for
example and he’s right, If we came to think about a solution you wont
find other than just trying to utilize your energy in carrying out physical
activities and keeping yourself busy as much as possible.

Porn makes men get bored with their own wives

I personally agree with that point and that’s due to the different
types of naked girls with different colors and sizes that a man watch in a
porn movie, Where as he just got one type at home which is his wife.
Boredom of his wife results in comparing his own wife with these porn
stars that he watches daily. In spite of that he might also be willing to try
something new.

Acting un normal with real girls in life

“It's so much easier to turn to porn, it's a lot less effort. But I want a
healthy sexual relationship with my wife."
Mike C

Scientists proved that all male guys or we can say 90% of them
feel not enough for a real girl, that’s why they enjoy their imaginary life
of masturbation am talking here about the addicted cases not the
normal ones. Moreover, as I mentioned on my effects list, masturbation
do actually reduce the amount of semen and the stiffness of erection,
Which caused many young men to be afraid of real sex and continue
masturbating.
Moreover, A good point about masturbation that it actually
protects us against prostate cancer according to the latest scientific
researches

Conclusion:

In conclusion, I would like to say anything in this world have its

own advantages and disadvantages, As well as pornography and
masturbation. As I mentioned earlier some of its side effects and some
of its positive means.

I personally see that we as teens cant actually easily get rid of

porn and masturbation. Where as on the other hand I say yes we can but
we also need the environmental help which I personally believe that it
wont change.

Summing up, I just would like to advice all the teens, all around
the world that we can still fight pornography and masturbation by
utilizing our energy by carrying out physical and educational activities
and my greatest hope is that scientist will come out with the real thing
that can actually help all of us from our pornography addiction.
