Psychologists from Brigham Young University have discovered that in order to have a long-term and healthy relationship, you need to stop watching pornography. The results of the research were published at: magazine Journal of Gender Studies.
The scientists took a sample of more than 3,000 people who were in a relationship. The authors asked participants to answer a series of questions about the frequency of watching porn and relationships with a partner.
After analyzing the results of the study, the authors concluded that porn viewing by both a woman and a man negatively affects the stability and duration of the union. However, men and religious people were more susceptible to this effect.
According to the authors, it is important to emphasize the harms of pornography not only for minors but also for adults. In future research, they will continue to examine the impact of porn on relationships between people.
