Internet porn nearly cost me my marriage, man tells forum

Sean Thackray's addiction to internet pornography began when he was 11 or 12.
Ten years later, he was still hooked. "The more I did it, the more I wanted to do it. I tried to stop several times but always failed," he said.
The 22-year-old will tell his story at Sexual Integrity, a forum in the main committee room of Parliament House, Canberra, today. The forum is being organised by Warwick Marsh, of the Fatherhood Foundation, to promote a national conversation on sexual exploitation.
Mr Marsh, an evangelical Christian, is an influential lobbyist for conservative family values.
The porn addict will join two former sex workers, including a former brothel madam, in recounting their first-hand experiences. A US authority on porn addiction, Dr Mary Anne Layden, will also address the forum.
"I consider myself an average guy," Mr Thackray says in his prepared speech. "I have a stable career. I am married and my wife and I are trying to pay off our unit. I like sport and cars and food and music and spending time with my mates

Really? People are getting more desensitized? How? I still cring at some things. This is a pretty weird artical.

The article also seems to imply that in real relationships women ALWAYS say no to sex, which I am inclined to believe is even further from the truth than saying women ALWAYS say yes.

And of course there was the obligitroy statement of "Religion helps." I get really sick of that.
"Mr. Smith from what you've told me you're an idiot...have you tried praying not to be an idiot?"

Hey that may not be as bad as the onion website's fake story about not beliving in gravity.

maybe this doctor has seen that people with religion that he has treated left it more easy. somehow i don't think it has to do with his way of thinking about religion.
