Porn ‘completely ruined’ lives of young men experiencing erectile disfunction


Porn, Gianfranco Martinez admits, “completely ruined my life.”

“I wasn’t really motivated to actually pursue a real relationship or even talk to women because I was just getting my fix [through porn],” he told The Post. “It was impacting me socially, it was impacting me in my relationships.”

It was also keeping him from being able to get it up in real life.

Martinez, now 22, is one of a growing number of Gen Z and Millennial males who grew up consuming internet porn from a young age only to experience “porn-induced erectile dysfunction.”

Clinical sexologist and psychotherapist Dr. Rob Weiss has watched the phenomenon explode over his 25 years of experience running a Los Angeles-area treatment center for sex addicts

“Porn addiction can lead to desensitization to sexual stimuli, which can decrease arousal and lead to difficulties achieving and maintaining an erection,” Weiss explained. “If my primary source of arousal is constantly looking at 50 images a day or 1,000 images a day, I no longer become that interested on an individual basis.”

Meaning, a real partner can never live up to nonstop porn-star performances.

Said Weiss: “Nobody compares with that.”
