- When one partner uses porn at high frequency there can be a tendency to withdraw emotionally from the relationship
- Viewing pornography makes it harder for the user to become aroused by a real person in a real relationship
- Porn portrays both men and women as little more than bodies with a single purpose, to give and receive sexual pleasure. The harder it becomes for users to see themselves and others as anything more than sexual objects, the harder it is to develop and nurture real relationships
