I believe porn addiction is a serious issue that needs to be addressed appropriately in today’s society. We must recognize it as a problem. As happens with any addiction, at the beginning, it might not seem so harmful, but over time, we see the consequences it brings. These are hopelessness, depression, lack of motivation, and families set apart. We need to act before it is too late. On the other hand, if we think we cannot recover, there is always hope and opportunity. We just need to make some radical changes in our lives. This is for our good as we are not meant to live in such a way. We are not meant to be slaves but to be free.
According to some statistics, in America alone, 200,000 adults are considered porn addicts among the country’s 40 million porn consumers. Just imagine how many there are worldwide.
37 videos are made every day in the United States alone.
28,000 people are watching it every given moment.
Recent statistics show that today, roughly 2.5 million people visit the world’s most popular porn sites every 60 seconds.
About $3,000 is spent every second on pornographic material.
Just the hardcore pornography titles released in the US in 1988 were around 1,300, while in 2005, they were increased to 13,588. Just imagine how many there are today.
These are some common statistics you can find anywhere, and they might not be so accurate as they keep increasing. Still, we are not here to talk about statistics but rather about what this topic means and how it can affect our lives. How can we protect ourselves from it?
The author of this book explores these questions and more, all while presenting real-life experiences and situations drawn from personal experiences.
