Everything wrong about pornography, says John: "I heard it described as the most potent bioweapon ever unleased on mankind. And I think that's true because there are so much wrong with porn. It's incredibly addictive, it increases risky sexual behavior, it desensitizes sexual violence, it can lead to impotence. I know for me, it increases objectification to the point where I look at every woman as an object because I've been so desensitized to those sexual images."
Chris' experience with pornography and its devastating effects: "What porn taught me is that I'm not worth anything unless I'm in the sexual act. It taught me that it needs to be frequent and it gave me unrealistic expectations of what a man is and it destroyed my ability to have deeper relationships."
John on the emotional aspect of sex: "Sex is supposed to be an emotional connection. Most women want the emotional connection before sex, guys use the sex to boost the emotional connection, feel more emotionally connected after having sex."
