Shrunken brains love porn

-

The brains of men who watch lots of porn are different from those of men who rarely watch porn. A study from 2014 showed that the brain centres that have to do with reward and motivation were generally smaller and had fewer internal connection­s in porn watchers. However, the scientists were unable to determine whether the shrunken brain was the cause or a result of the high porn consumptio­n.

In this place, brain cells are poorly linked in porn watchers.

Porn watchers' brains have shrunk in this region.

High porn consumptio­n is linked with low blood supply here.
