The topic titled – “Watching Porn” that I am going to pen down in this article will help you to fight against this prevalent disease among societies, youngsters, and adults. I don’t know how to express these feelings to myself before taking this decision to bring self-awareness.
Finally, I took the courage and strength to overcome this fear of identifying those sexual temptations or desires and confronting them.
I don’t consider myself a perfect human being as we all commit mistakes. But, the blunder mistakes we make further is not identifying the problems and acting courageously to combat them. Right from my childhood days, my so-called good memories got severely impacted by the intimate scenes shown in Bollywood and Hollywood movies.
I got habituated to this worst habit and started to watch those things repeatedly. Now, when I am 29 years old, I must be able to stop myself from doing this kind of immoral activity.
I believe we as human beings, are more responsible towards ourselves, our families, our society, and our country. Frankly speaking, in today’s digital world, people are so used to watching obscene or B-grade movies that they usually save them on their PCs, computers, and mobile devices. Thus, they think that they would watch it in their leisure time after their job.
They hardly make any truthful or honest effort to control the sexual thoughts running through their minds. I can say it is the most destructive virus that’s killing our well-being and making us weak over days, months, and years.
We begin to lose our self-esteem to one extent that it never matters to us who the woman or girl in front of us is; whether it could be our wife, daughter, or mother. We are shamelessly watching exaggerated porn movies.
0Seeing this, again and again, we feel that our hearts and mind are calm, considering it as the stress-busters. We feel like the tiredness of the whole day is disappearing in a pinch.
We all certainly need the utmost seriousness and strong will to overcome these sexual feelings. Ever thought, about what advice will you pass on to your kids and your lineage? At one crucial stage, when I moved out of my home, went to internet shops, and got addicted to watching the naked couple, kissing scenes, and bikini girls were my routine during my teen days.
I completely got intoxicated by the porn drug that made me feel inferior, nasty, and self-destructive. With years passing, I somehow controlled those wicked feelings and strong desires that could have been destroying me through the influence of porn and other fascinating sex things.
