> hurr releases dopamine so it's bad
Dopamine is required and released for literally everything we do in life... like every and any motor movement (see Parkinson's).

why would someone think dopamine is bad?

You can overdose on dopamine. Maybe that's why people are concerned?

also, if porn is responsible for an ED epidemic, why is porn not a treatment for premature ejaculation?

I've been listening though and he's got some decent points. It's not based on religion or morals, just ideas.

Which points do you find decent?

his only relevant credential is a nursing degree. His co-author (his wife) has no relevant credentials--she's a trial lawyer.

It was a interesting video. Must be a market for a good screen cleaner.

I still enjoy how downplayed moot's TED talk was/is.

Of course it was downplayed. If it was overplayed then someone Kimmo does not know would have heard about it, driven past and shot moot outside of TED.

Just returned from my 10 mile run on the beach & thinking about the content of video I can point out a major flaw.

Marriage statistics over the last few years would show a significant decline and a quick look at web shows people not marring as much as in the past and they wait longer -

however Divorce rate drops to lowest since 1970 for the USA

The economy is cited at the reason fewer people marry and why they wait until they can afford it - However me thinks porn could also be an element - One would expect if Ted is right? Divorce would be on the rise.
