Typically, we don't think about porn being related to lovemaking. However, many people are experiencing relationship challenges related to the use of porn.
(Please listen to the podcast episode or read the transcript to hear explanations, stories and examples.)
In this episode, Dr. Jessica Higgins discusses:
"Porn is strictly genital sex. It completely divorces sex from emotional attachment, the springboard for optimal sex, which requires mutual engagement, attunement, and responsiveness. Porn reduces sex to sensation - intercourse and orgasm - and eliminates any connection to or respect for the user's partner." by Dr. Susan Johnson
