I rarely mention Prause unless I encounter obvious pro-porn industry shills like you and the other commenter.
Btw, you really went down my history and went to a comment I wrote 9 months ago? That's very sad
If you look into your account that has no history in it, it's YOU the one has an agenda, since you only comment and post about one very specific topic: defending porn and well known industry shills.
You said "how violent that website is" in your other comment. Everyone should go to yourbrainonporn (.com) to see how violent it is. To anyone reading this comment, go see it!
Dr. Prause has produced some very solid research; the qualitative analysis is first-rate.
But even if you dismiss the work of her and her colleagues entirely, there is overwhelming evidence from other research studies that porn is not addictive, and does not cause ED.
No major medical or psychological organization recognizes porn addiction or PIED.
So on the one hand you have the scientific community: doctors, psychologists, scientists and researchers.
And on the other side, you have a band of little Internet trolls.

Wow Skippy... a website called "yourbrainonporn" that attacks Dr. Prause's work! How very surprising.
My own background is in data analysis. I teach graduate courses in applied data science and data analytics at a well-known university. I also review medical papers prior to publication for two major publishers.
In other words, I am capable of actually reading and understanding the science and the math. I don't need to depend on some biased hack site to tell me what to think.
To be honest, more than half of the papers I screen for medical journals need to be rejected or sent back for revision because of poor methodology or flawed math. Admittedly, I have not seen or reviewed any of Dr. Prause's papers prior to publication, but the published papers I have read are very solid; I've yet to see anything I would reject.
So my opinions are based on actually reading and understanding the studies. Yours seem to be based on a cult site telling you what to think.
Again - if the "porn causes ED" argument actually had any factual basis, it would be recognized by major medical associations. It's not. That should tell you all you need to know.
But it won't, because you're just an Internet troll, who will continue posting misleading information.

Not at all. The porn industry has A LOT to win by funding shitty studies that prove that "porn is good for you". Yet, there is no incentive or gain for anyone to fund studies that prove the damaging effects of porn. Since internet porn started in 2006/07 (fairly new phenomenon) and considering what I previously mentioned, it's not surprising at all that PIED nor the damaging effects of porn are not recognized. Doctors said that smoking was good for you in the 50's-- same exact story is repeating itself.
You can throw at me all the crappy studies you want, but the fact is this: anyone who has a porn problem and removes porn from their lives are going to see a massive improvement. If they have ED from watching too much porn, they will see big improvements if they just test removing porn for a while. That's what people are reporting on the internet, and you can't stop that. That's what will happen if anyone reading this comment who has a problem and tests removing porn form their lives will experience. You can't cover that up, no matter how many "studies" you throw at me and how many "institutions don't recognize this".
Not interested in changing your opinion since you have an open agenda (and you were pretending to be another person with a second account? wtf). My intention was to share some of the links posted above so anyone reading this thread can check them and make up their own minds, and if they feel unsure, they can make the test and see for themselves; the results will speak for themselves. They can go nofap, or they can just go pornfree and vualá. Have a nice day.
PD. if anyone is new to all of this, read this page where it summarizes all the key concepts of porn addiction:

If anyone here suspects they might have a problem, don't believe me or the other commenter, just do the test for yourself of going nofap or pornfree for a few months and see for yourself.
Ah yes - the old "doctors once thought smoking was good for you" argument. I was wondering how long it would be before you trotted out that favorite argument of the ignorant.
First, it was known for decades that smoking was not good for you. The tobacco industy simply buried the truth with advertising.
But you have no concept of how different the world is today. Our computer models alone are tens of thousands of times more powerful than the tools we had then. The results are overwhelmingly more accurate, and they are widely disseminated.
And that's why "cover ups" just can't happen today. There is too much data, and the tools are too powerful.
The sad thing is that, just as our scientific knowledge has advanced, the community of of people who choose not to believe science has grown.
And yes, you reject "studies" - because you can't understand them. You reject the knowledge and expertise of every major medical organization - because they are "in on the conspiracy."
Instead you choose to believe a cult - and spread those beliefs to others.
Did you every wonder who is behind the anti-porn movement? Hmmm... what powerful group of people HATE porn enough to try to discredit it?
Shut up shill, I already highlighted issues with Dr Prause's research and you were unable to respond.
You're a broken record, "I'm a data analyst, I reviewed the work, it's very solid." Omg shut up you fraud.
