Did their women get diagnosed with hysteria too?
First of all, "porn addiction" is not a thing. Clickbait news organizations use it to drive traffic. Religious zealous use the term to demonize those who differ from their own worldview. Licensed medical professionals do not use it.
The quotes in the article are from a 73 year old man complaining that the youth these days are weird, immoral, and lazy. Old people have been documented saying that for hundreds, thousands of years.
Porn addiction is "a thing." And correlates with increasing rates of sexual violence towards women.
And your source is... Some religious leader? An "alpha male" podcaster peddling supplements? Some conservative politician who is trying to keep women barefoot and pregnant?
The current results showed an overall significant positive association between pornography use and attitudes supporting violence against women in nonexperimental studies. In addition, such attitudes were found to correlate significantly higher with the use of sexually violent pornography than with the use of nonviolent pornography, although the latter relationship was also found to be significant.
Turns out people want to reenact what they see.
Anecdotally, it's true. Many guys I've known have talked about what they've done in the bedroom. Everything from "surprise anal" to ignoring obvious struggling during blowjobs.
This is coming from guys who would otherwise never hurt a fly, but become absolute shitheads when their caveman brain takes over.
That study is pretty outdated. Here's a more recent meta-analysis finding the opposite.
