New website "RealYourBrainOnPorn.com" launches for scientifically accurate information about pornography

ASHLAND, Ore. - April 18, 2019 - PRLog -- Have you ever read science claiming that pornography is addictive because it "burns out your dopamine", then been confused because you cannot find a diagnosis for "porn addiction" in either the World Health Organization or American Psychiatric Association? You are not alone. Pornography addiction actually has been rejected as a codified diagnosis by every major diagnostic body and rejected by scientists, but misinformation online is rampant.

In the last five years, anti-pornography groups have spent millions of dollars marketing fake science to consumers, then profit by selling untested therapies, anti-pornography apps, and books. This stops now.

Scientists and therapists who are experts in human sexuality have come together to provide accurate information to the public in www.realyourbrainonporn.com. The website introduces the basic principles of science, links to studies summarized by the professors who wrote them, then links you to dozens of scientists and therapists ready to connect (http://www.realyourbrainonporn.com/experts). These experts include the principle investigator for the first research-based porn literacy curriculum for youth, the first person to coin the expression "sex positive", the first neuroscience lab to test the addiction model of pornography, and the lab that demonstrated porn did not impact partner satisfaction in the largest pre-registered, failure-to-replicate in the field of human sexuality. Experts' background includes terminal degrees in addictions, communications and media, sociology, psychology, neuroscience, and physiology, among others.

If you have ever read news about pornography and thought it sounded a little too breathless, a bit over the top, or possibly completely fabricated, you are the majority. It is time to correct this public misinformation. Now you have a free resource to share with others!
