WHY IS PO*******HY DIFFICULT TO RESIST?
For most people p**n is difficult to stop watching. Why is that? First of all, it is because p**n is exciting to watch – it is a super stimulus. Yes, we are s*xually wired, and this means we become s*xually aroused by anything that is s*xually stimulating. The challenge, however, is p**n hijacks this natural curiosity by breaking all boundaries of what is s*xually possible to do. In other words p**n will provide all possible s*xual fantasies in a huge dose. You can't refuse to watch because it's too much for your mind to handle. Imagine someone offering you a mouthwatering dessert 🍨 or your favourite food in huge quantities. Nor easy to resist. So once you watch it, p**n seems to give the idea that there is more to watch, more exciting than what you just watched (and there's always more). So you start searching and scrolling down the p**n websites looking for the next dopamine hit, and you are gone. You feel you can't resist the urge because you really want to explore the urge. P**n gives you a reward with no effort from you. In a normal human relationship there is a process to follow before people are ready to have s*x, but with po*******hy you feel like all these thousands of women or men want to have all types of s*x activities with you NOW. It doesn't help either that p**n is accessible to anyone; people are sending leaked s*x videos to each other on social media platforms (e.g., WhatsApp). In fact, it seems as if you do not need to actively seek out po*******hy; it comes to you automatically. Our day-to-day experience is more about resisting a s*xual temptation that is being pushed to you. Most movies include a s*xual scene, and most online videos feature someone being s*xually suggestive; it is nearly impossible to be active online without encountering some form of nudity or s*xually provocative content. Our minds are constantly being primed to accept s*xual content, and over time our guard becomes lowered and we stop resisting. Lastly most people generally don't see anything wrong with indulging themselves with s*xually explicit content once in a while. It has become something we believe we can't avoid. This means we are more open to watching people have s*x than we realise or admit. We are possibly living at a time when people are more open to random s*x with strangers – the "perfect" p**nographic script (who would not want free random s*x whichapparently has no negative consequences? This is a perfect s*xual fantasy).
We must make a conscious effort to stay away from anything that is s*xually immoral.
1 Corinthians 6:18-19: "Stay away from s*xual immorality! All other sins that people commit are outside of the body, but s*xual immorality is a sin against your own body. Don't you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit that is within you, that you received from God?"FBV
