Let’s take a look at History.
- Doctors advertising cigarettes and prescribing them as a treatment for Asthma. Until, smokers started getting diagnosed for cancer.
- Children’s Soothing Syrups used to soothe those little brats which had morphine, chloroform, heroin, powdered opium etc. Until science discovered the effects of these drugs.
- Using mercury to cure pretty much anything and everything. Until people started noticing harmful effects on their nervous, digestive and immune systems, lungs and kidneys.
- Using heroin to cure your cough until we got to know about the effect of it on our bodies and minds.
- People used Lobotomy (making an incision to the frontal lobe) to treat mental illnesses, ranging from conditions as serious as schizophrenia to something as mild as depression or anxiety. Until they saw how bad an idea it was.
- And girls using radioactive cosmetics, containing Radium until they started dying from Radioactive exposure.
The list can go on and on and on, but the point I am trying to make here is that science will always lag behind the lived experience. Because it has to, its natural. You cannot reach on any conclusion unless you have enough proof and evidence. If we had not noticed the effects of Tobacco, Radium, Mercury, Heroine, Morphine etc, we would still be using them today as we used to do in the past. But people lived through those times, people went through the experience, the suffering. Only and only after that science caught up with their experience and told them that what they were doing was not a good idea.
A similar thing is happening now, history is repeating itself again. Millions of people are watching porn on regular basis, and millions are suffering from a range of symptoms. From social anxiety to Premature ejaculation.
The brave souls however, those who don’t like waiting till science tells them that porn is bad. People who listen to their minds and bodies more than the so called experts. People who don’t fear facing the truth, the people on noFap, PornFree, MuslimNofap, Semenretention subreddits, have come forward to tell the world again that – The case with every new phenomenon is that science lags behind lived experience.
So, it is better to be safe than sorry. To quit porn now and reap the benefits, rather than wait for few more decades when science will accept these people to be the pioneers in this field.
