The result is a feeling of emptiness — “the psychological equivalent of making your home environment filthy for awhile. … It depletes the dopamine system.” – Huberman

“The higher the dopamine peak the bigger the drop afterwards, and you drop below baseline.” – Huberman

“…that ever, ever sort of escalating wildness that you need to watch in order to get an ever decreasing stimulus that comes back.”

Non-Christian Huberman says pornography “isn’t good or bad,” but consider what Jesus says about lusting from the heart with the eyes and even the hand:

“You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell. And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell. – Mt. 5:27-30

“Females don’t use pornography to the same degree. They use literary pornography.” – Jordan Peterson
