0:00.0	Welcome to The Man Talk Show. I'm Connor Beaton. And today we're going to be talking about how to quit porn and still have it feel good. So I'm not necessarily going to talk about whether you should or should not be watching porn. I'm not going to have a moral debate or conversation about that. I mean, everyone has their own personal preference and view on that. I'm not necessarily so interested in
0:20.8	that conversation as I am supporting the men who are interested in taking a break from porn or
0:27.4	quitting porn all together. So that's what this video is going to specifically focus in on.
0:32.5	And I'm going to break it into a few simple parts. The first one is I'm going to talk about how
0:37.2	our habits, our porn watching habits, get formed. one is I'm going to talk about how our habits, our porn
0:38.8	watching habits, get formed. Secondly, I'm going to talk about what's happening in the body
0:43.0	when you're watching pornography and ejaculate. And thirdly, I'm going to talk about how you can
0:49.1	use some very simple tools to hack the same system that gets you hooked on porn to move you away from porn.
0:57.3	So let's begin by talking about how our habits and routines happen when developing with porn.
1:05.7	So after working with a lot of men, what I have noticed is that almost all men have a routine with
1:14.6	pornography. For some men, they watch it first thing in the morning. For other men, they watch it
1:19.1	at night before bed. They have a very specific routine sometimes to like set up their environment.
1:25.2	It can be quite ritualistic in nature. And for most people, for most men,
1:31.9	the origins of their porn watching started quite young. A lot of young boys and young men are
1:39.3	coming into watching pornography today. Some of the research is showing between the ages of 8 and 11. So very,
1:45.1	very, very early. So for the fathers that might be watching this, have a conversation with your son,
1:50.6	probably before you think it is necessary and start to have that conversation about pornography
1:56.1	because it is everywhere. It's very easily accessible. Something like 30% of the internet is now nude photos or
2:03.7	imagery or considered pornographic in nature. So it's out there. But a lot of young men, a lot of boys
2:11.1	come into pornography at an age where there's a lot of transition happening in their life. So they're
2:17.3	going from elementary to junior high.
2:19.5	They're starting to date women.
