    Your question is so off I advise you do research and meditate on your question.

    You do realize that you’re asking something that is so far off from reality and what it means to a human being.

      What a gaslight!

      Your question is so off I advise you do research and meditate on your question.

      @SugarApplePie literally repeats your own line back to yourself asking you to expand and suddenly it’s his question that is off.

      When you respond like this it becomes apparent that you simply don’t know the answer. You reveal yourself.

      You do realize that you’re asking something that is so far off from reality and what it means to a human being.

      All you’ve accomplished here is condescension. Clearly he doesn’t realize or he wouldn’t have asked. It’s also clearly not a rare opinion judging by your initial post so why the pretense that he should already know?

      I have to assume you’re just a troll because no rational person would respond like this.

        Like, all I wanted to know was if they meant more of a “the meaning of sex is having children” angle or a more spiritual “the meaning of sex is to develop a deep connection with someone” or some third thing I hadn’t even considered. I was looking forward to a conversation about it because of all the reasons to ban porn I’ve heard, “it destroys the meaning of sex” is not one I’ve encountered before. Ah well. The friendliness of this community made me forget we’re on the internet for a second I guess lol

          Wilson’s material prominently undergirds the internet fads “NoFap” and “No Nut November”,[13] with his TED-X talk often linked in relevant fora in spite of the note posted by TED at the top of the recording: “This talk contains several assertions that are not supported by academically respected studies in medicine and psychology. While some viewers might find advice provided in this talk to be helpful, please do not look to this talk for medical advice.”[9] According to historian Brian M. Watson, Wilson “with no scientific training or background …has made a career peddling pseudoscience.”[14]

      Gotta be honest, I expected a better and more thought-provoking answer than what is basically the same shit bigoted nuts throw when someone asks why they have a problem with queer people. With such incredible logic as

      porn is as bad as hard drugs (because it is)

      I can’t believe I didn’t immediately fully understand your genius. Next time save everyone the time and don’t bother replying if you have nothing to say.
