Serious question.

So this is the other side: porn in any capacity is still objectification. I gave myself this threshold too- I was allowed to masturbate to my partners pics or written word just nothing outside of that. It’s a good taper but that’s exactly the point, TO TAPER. These pics and vids still have the capacity to force the objectification of your partner and YOU in your brain. Fantasy for the sake of lust is the enemy here, fantasy because you want to include and connect with your partner is the best way to make this positive for both of you!

Have to agree with Brad. Maybe so long as you quit porn, you should feel free of the Shame associated. But masturbation will still have effects on you mentally/physically. Better to just try not to, but maybe keep in mind a relapse can still be progress if its not to porn

I think about this and personally i think its not as harmful because with this your not really getting false expectations engraved into your head but honestly i think for a man cranking your hog is harmful for your masculinity
