Post showing how quitting porn can shift perception

I was out having dinner with my friends and found out that a video of a girl I knew from university a couple of years ago got posted to a major porn site (top 3, but no need for specifics). We weren’t close but I met her a few times. It was her having sex with her ex-boyfriend who insists he didn’t upload it but there’s no way for anyone to really know who did it.

Her life is ruined. Everyone knows about the video and it has more than a million views already. This is the power of these insanely destructive sites. Imagine all the people jerking it to this video of a girl who cries herself to sleep every night because of its existence.

Old, perverted, me would have probably PMO’d to it, not even going to lie. But on this 3 week streak, just the thought of it disgusts me. To think there’s nothing she can do about feeling completely violated by not just whoever uploaded it, but the whole fucking world.

NoFap is even more than self-help, superpowers, curing addiction, and determination. Society doesn’t need porn. We are helping eliminate the abuse and suffering the people in these obscene videos have to face (whether willingly or unwillingly). Next time you think about relapsing, think about how that girl you’re jerking off to might want to kill herself because of the very video you’re using for 10 minutes of joy.

Something really fucked up happened today.
