Introduction This critique has two parts: Part 1 exposes how Nicole Prause, Marty Klein and Taylor Kohut completely misrepresent their solitary bit of “evidence” to support the article’s core falsehood – that “compulsive pornography viewing” was excluded from the new ICD-11 “Compulsive Sexual Behavior Disorder” diagnosis. Part 2 exposes the startling omissions, false claims, research […]
Below this long intro are many sub-sections containing relevant studies. Relevant Research – first we have lists of studies that provide support for the claims made by YBOP. (See Questionable & Misleading Studies for highly publicized papers that are not what they claim to be.): Porn/sex addiction? This page lists 59 neuroscience-based studies (MRI, fMRI, […]

Introduction Unfortunately YBOP must thoroughly debunk yet another Men’s Health propaganda piece denying porn-induced sexual dysfunctions. The current article mirrors another misleading article YBOP debunked just a few months ago: Debunking “Should you be worried about porn-induced erectile dysfunction?” – by The Daily Dot’s Claire Downs.

Is pornography use causing harm? COMMENTS: When confronted with hundreds of studies linking porn use to negative outcomes, a common tactic by pro-porn PhDs is to claim that “no causation has been demonstrated.” The reality is that when it comes to psychological and (many) medical studies, very little research reveals causation directly. For example, all […]

Isenberg MD, which made many of the same observations as did my critique. As is customary when a letter critical of a […]
YBOP Comments: This was written in response to David Ley’s blog post attacking nofap. It serves a bigger purpose: 1) to expose that the so-called science contradicting porn addiction is smoke and mirrors, and 2) the papers claiming to refute porn addiction come from two individuals who often team up – Nicole Prause & David […]

Introduction Here we have yet another propaganda piece, this one attempting to deny the existence of widespread porn-induced sexual problems. It’s by The Daily Dot’s Claire Downs whose expertise is described as “A third-generation worker in the Chicago futures industry, she specializes in cryptocurrencies and altcoins.” Interestingly, none of the recent hit pieces attempting to […]

UPDATE: If your healthcare provider wants continuing education credits that address porn-induced sexual dysfunctions, they may want to look into this course (not affiliated with this website). In the UK, consider this course. ~~~ “It’s hard to know exactly how many young men are suffering from porn-induced ED. But it’s clear that this is a […]
This is the extraordinary story of how Nicole Prause used every conceivable tactic to try to prevent the publication of a peer-reviewed paper, Park et al, in a prestigious journal. The paper in question: Is Internet Pornography Causing Sexual Dysfunctions? A Review with Clinical Reports (Park et al., 2016). [As of early 2020, Park et […]

“There appears to be a relationship between pornography use and sexual dysfunction in men who report a preference for masturbation to pornography rather than sexual intercourse.”
