goldenballs Member 343 Posts 7/04	Posted - Nov 23 2004 : 12:27PM Okay, I'm going to have to swallow my pride a little here (heh heh, not in that way though lol). Like a lot of guys here I watch and jack off to porn on a nightly basis and have done for several years. I have a pretty large collection of porn which is continuously growing. I'm in my late 20's and for the most part have no problems getting 'aroused' while watching porn. From time to time though, possibly 2,3 or 4 times a year, the 'old chap' seems to just take a vacation if you know what I mean, often for as long as 2 or 3 weeks. Now I'm sure this is not uncommon, afterall if I could get wood 100% of the time I'd be in the industry myself. Well, maybe not. But I'm sure other guys have problems from time to time. Sometimes when I'm watching porn I still feel as though it is turning by brain on in a 'wow she's so beautiful, look at that ass etc...' kind of way, but the message just doesn't seem to get passed on 'downstairs'. While other times I do actually feel like I'm just going through the motions and watching porn just because I always do every night. So either way, I feel I might at times be either mentally tired of porn or physically tired of porn, if you see what I mean. It just makes me wonder what do other's think about this. What's the best way to go about it, do others have similar experiences and what do they do? I've been feeling lately that the best course of action would be to simply have a short break of a few days. No porn, no jacking off. The last time I went through this 'slump', it coincided with a six day vacation, no porn for six days. When I got back home it was the first thing I wanted to do, I was really looking forward to watching some porn, and that's how you should feel about watcing porn and that's why it gets you turned on. And no surprises, I was back to normal, in fact it was almost as if I was on Viagra for the next week. So I'm thinking about not watching porn for a couple of days, although it will difficult when you've actually got the porn sitting there in my room! [Link]
croy Platinum Member Discovry 4574 Posts 3/04	Posted - Nov 23 2004 : 11:10PM I get bored with porn periodically - though for me it is my brain that gets bored, while the body works. So I do other stuff for a while. Lack of rest or too much stress might be the problem. Don't know your life situation, so I can't judge. [Link]

-lunacy- Senior Member 1081 Posts 4/00	Posted - Nov 24 2004 : 9:07PM Really sounds like you're just burned out. Desesitized in a way. Take a break, come back to it in a week or two, or a month, just when you're feeling ready again instead of just doing it because it's what you're used to. [Link]
tmd5 Member seika izumi 502 Posts 6/04	Posted - Nov 25 2004 : 10:05PM Yeah, sounds like your getting desenitized by it. It's time to check out SCAT and watersports. Ok, i'm kidding. Seriously, i get this way from time to time. Sometimes I go an entire 4 days without watching porn. I find that I usually like to watch different types of porn for a little variety. I do remember when I got sick of american porn I started watching Japanese Bukkake and was hooked. [Link]

Click to expand Houston, we have a problem. If you're acknowledeging that the images that you see arouse you, but are getting no response in the form of a hard on, it may be time to see your internist. [Link]
BigBobxxx Senior Member 2681 Posts 5/04	Posted - Nov 29 2004 : 10:15AM Over many years of stroking I have found that giving it a rest once in a while is a good thing. Take 1-2 weeks off and you'll be rewarded with a couple great cumshots when you resume if nothing else Sometimes our favorite porn we watch over and over loses its power after the 27th viewing of the same favorite scene. So, BigBob prescribes the following treatment: • Take two weeks off from spanking it • If, during the two weeks, you get aroused, you may play with your nipples... but no jerking off • Retire your favorites for at least three months • Go back through your library of porn that you didn't get excited by the first time around (I guarantee you will find a few scenes that will now give you incredible wood) • Start pouring through the studio websites that offer good product support in the way of large front & back box covers, cast lists, stills and, sometimes, previews. Look here on ADT under "Resources" for links. • Do a star search here on ADT or on the IAFD and check into some of the films you see listed. Often, favorite performers come across differently working with different studios and directors. Sometimes a studio change brings about an entire career change (like when Jenna Haze went to JKP and went veggie on us). Lastly, don't worry. You sound like a "lifer." You will go through these phases many times, but you will always return to porn. And, every time you come back, it will be better than ever (just like make-up sex :) [Link]

goldenballs Member 343 Posts 7/04	Posted - Nov 29 2004 : 12:33PM Well thanks everyone for your thoughts. I've taken on board what you've all said, sounds like some good advice there. Fortunately, it seems it was only a minor blip. Normal service seems to have been resumed. The solution: Tera Patrick! [Link]

malkira Member 323 Posts 6/02	Posted - Nov 30 2004 : 4:31PM You need to get rid of all your porn before you're ruined for life. Send it all to me and I'll see that it's properly disposed of. [Link]

Click to expand Of course I was trying to be humorous. Tera v1 is pretty "stiff" medicine in my book (i.e. a guaranteed stiffie). [Link]
whoremonger Member 248 Posts 2/04	Posted - Nov 30 2004 : 10:34PM Take a break and try a hooker instead. It's a lot more fun. [Link]
Clos Member 16 Posts 11/04	Posted - Dec 17 2004 : 9:39AM I found for me that I lose excitement with jacking off like anything else when it becomes too routine. What I'll do is take a couple days off, then go shopping at the mall or to a club where the gorgeous girls I encounter will put my gland into a frenzy. Go home and crank one off with the image of some lucky lady still etched into my dirty mind. [Link]
