Gay porn Addition

Porn is porn, i believe it triggers same reaction in brain....

 

That's the problem I'm trying to solve. Check this out:

As Angriff says, porn is porn. As I became jaded with straight porn, I started to look at gay and transgendered (transwoman) porn. For a time I worried that I might be gay or bi (not that I have anything against gays or bis). But eventually the newness wore off the gay porn to an extent too. I found I was using a mix of gay and straight porn to get my libido up there to where I'd have a stimulating time jacking off.

I think, and from what I've read, this is pretty normal. Porn addicts, unlike drug addicts, need new porn, not more porn. Some of us probably run the gamut of pornography, while others are too repulsed by some to go there.

On the other hand, maybe you do have an attraction to gayness. Who knows? And who cares? Porn is porn; addiction is addiction. It's all the same, a hollow substitute for the real thing.

 

I'm a female struggling with l*****n porn. Does that count? Either way its destructive and damaging. This sucks because it contributes to hocd/sexual confusion.

 

it seems like most "advanced" abusers of porn has crossed that line of their own sexuality and started to consume pretty much anything that could spur a reaction.

I attribute it to the mentioned "numbing" and the base drive for diversity in sex to be horribly overexaggerated and broken when introduced to limitless options in imaginary "mates".

 

This seems true to me, Im a straight guy, and usually i wouldn't like gay porn, but on my worst days I would watch it just for the novely and dirtyness because I was so "numbed" to anything straight.

 

I also got myself into gay porn. I believe that we start out looking at things that we expect to see. But once it becomes too ordinary and want a higher high, we start to go into things that once disgusted us at first. I would have never thought of looking at gay porn, but there's something about it that gets me hook. You are not alone.

 

I totally agree with this. I think to a point it's warped my entire sexuality. I started off with exclusively straight porn when i was about 13. 2-3 years later i started getting into bi porn and up until i was 20 I jumped between gay, straight, bi. I can't really say I'm bisexual entirely cause it's been exclusively sexual attraction to male. I'm kind of messed up in that sense, I really hope it doesn't affect me/my future spouse

 

I've always watched lesbian porn since the first time I layed eyes on it. What can I say , as a dude I love women , and constantly seeing dicks isn't my idea of a good time.

 

I think this is something we could discuss in our 'gay group'. Please join us at: http://www.nofap.org/forum/group.php?groupid=5

 

I've been watching gayporn for the last six years very intensive. I don't need the stuff harder and more harder, I have a certain level and I don't need more. But I had the problem that I was so bored about the stuff, that I needed a new porn after some days. I don't masturbate since 7 days, but I can't avoid to look what's new on my favorite pornsites. I don't watch pornmovies since 3 days, but I am already curious what is there new stuff. I am affraid that porn and porn-induced fantasies have partly replaced lust in real sex.

 

I too ventured into gay (and transgendered) porn after my usage really accelerated about 3 years ago. I had already been viewing porn for about 10 years before that but I started looking a lot more and that's when I started to seek out new types of porn. I'm straight by the way. It's nice to know I'm not the only one who's been through this.

 

I also ended up consuming gay porn. However, I don't want to do it anymore. I think that the reason why I watched gay porn was the novelty that it provides.

 

Loo no further! Im in the same situation

 

I went there too and beyond. It did cause a lot of sexual confusion early on and now that I'm in the process of quitting I'm starting to discover that the gay and bisexual tendencies I developed were a side effect of my addiction, not something that I truly was. I'm open minded and don't have a problem with bisexual or gay people whatsoever; but I wonder how many people in the world are truly lbgt or simply suffer from our addiction and are driven in that direction because of it.

 

I can identify with the progression of the porn. I have always been straight and the thoght of anything else was abhorrent to me. Then I found myself drawn to gay and bi stuff. I quickly realised this was the progression of the sickness but that didn't stop me. Now that I have abstained for a while, this desire is starting to lose its power over me. Of all the sex stuff I have indulged in, this has been the source of the most shame to me. It has caused me to withdraw even more because of my shame, and fear of being discovered. It also seems to be the last fantasy to leave me.
It is helpful to realise that others are having a similar experience because I thought I was all alone in this and I felt very ashamed.

 

I am in the same place dude!

Started with straight porn which I have very vivid memories of and at some point I found myself increasingly spending time with gay porn. Lately I lost interest in regular gay porn and sought vintage straight and gay videos, plus was getting into Male Male Female threesome pornos. I like being with girls but am also attracted to guys. Don;t know if I have a gay side or porn has reconfigured my brain. Part of me thinks this is because I feel comfortable being with a guy, no performance anxiety as I am there just for fun, plus not interested in having intercourse with a guy. I have wondered if I am gay but I don't look forward to a relationship or get romantically attached to guys. Whenever I've been with one it's been a one off fling to get something off my system and I don't feel like seeing the person again. I get really excited with girls cant keep my hands off them but in my head I am always anxious about ED.

I recently heard of HOCD, the OCD anxiety about being gay, much of which can be induced by porn OCD. I am not sure of there's an essential about who we really are and our sexuality and if it can be shaped by habits and experimentation. What I am sure of now is that porn is a harmful bad idea that can lead to all the uncertanities I've mentioned above.

For myslef I have figured that the only way forward is a porn free healthy lifestyle, involving exercising, eating better, reading, spending time away from electronic devices and such.

Hope everyone here makes progress on whatever goals they've set out for themselves!

 

I just read an assuring article on yourbrainonporn talking about this. Apparently reports of guys developing gay fetishes because of p addiction is becoming increasingly frequent.

 

Most of my porn orgasms took place when I was watching the so-called "money shot". I remember being very worried about this but - as YBOP shows - the more "shameful" we consider the porn, the more we are driven towards it. Now that I've been away from PMO for most of seven weeks, the attraction has totally gone.
