Porn and Masculinity William Jackson

Everyone is exposed to porn on the internet. Often, this starts at an early age. Young boys have access to millions of pornographic videos on their mobile phones. Generally, it is accepted that all men watch porn. Any opposition to this is usually in the form of the harm it does to women that work in porn, or that porn triggers excessive masculinity in men. This book looks at it from a different perspective; is porn harmful to the men that watch it? Porn is absolutely harmful to the men that consume it, but not because it makes them too masculine. No, porn destroys their masculinity. It destroys their manliness. And it destroys their virility. The problem the world faces today is not a problem of 'toxic' masculinity, it is a problem of a lack of masculinity. Porn is the core reason as to why men no longer possess this virility.
