@madsdanae Idk man as a researcher, I'm pretty against porn from a psychological standpoint. Most studies that try to "prove" porn isn't harmful has their control group not masterbate at all. Studies that have their control group still masterbate just without porn show that there is harm.

@anishmoonka Complete idiotic system. They're losing out on MAN HOURS. Make these people work, make something. What the hell. Why can't they be made to paint, build, repair etc. Why?

A Harvard psychiatrist studied 15 prisoners kept alone in their cells for weeks or months at a time. 14 developed the same mental breakdown: hallucinations, paranoia, panic, brain fog they couldn't shake. Stuart Grassian published this in the American Journal of Psychiatry in 1983 and called it SHU Syndrome, after the Special Housing Units prisons use for isolation. When prisoners left solitary, most of those symptoms faded. The cell was doing it to them. Brain scans show the damage too. In 2019, researchers at Charité Berlin and the University of Pennsylvania scanned the brains of nine people before and after a 14-month stay at a remote Antarctic research station. The hippocampus shrank by 7 percent on average. That part of your brain handles memory and how you find your way around. The prefrontal cortex (planning, self-control) also lost volume. And BDNF, a protein that helps brain cells grow and form new connections, dropped sharply and still hadn't recovered six weeks after the team came home. Same biology, just from being cut off from the world. The UN's torture investigator Juan Méndez ruled in 2011 that solitary confinement beyond 15 days counts as torture, because the brain damage past that point can be permanent. The UN General Assembly made it official policy in 2015 and called it the Nelson Mandela Rules. A 2020 review in The Lancet Psychiatry pulled together 77 studies covering 35,351 prison suicides across 27 countries. People serving life sentences were 2.4 times more likely to take their own life than other prisoners. Prisoners in single cells were 6.8 times more likely. In California in 2004, isolation units held less than 10 percent of the state's prison population but accounted for 73 percent of all prison suicides. On American death row, the suicide rate runs roughly nine times the general public's. And around 1 in 10 people executed in the US since 1976 asked the state to drop their appeals and kill them faster.
Too many ways to d*e@waysxmany

Insane....You see this and realise that life imprisonment is worse than the death penalty.

Porn advocates try to shame women's rational dislike of the degrading & exploitative porn industry by accusing women of being insecure & controlling. After all that we've learned about the horrors of the porn industry, why are we defending men's "desire" to use porn?
meadowtreader@mudscryer

@emilykmay Off the top of my head it has to do with women feeling out of control of their partners’ desires and feeling insecure about their bodies and insecurity in their partnership so they grasp for control of a thing that only ruins relationships in extreme cases

@faaauuux @nopeenotoday @x_ArcticFox_x @onlyyagirl_ I wouldn't use the phrase "alter your brain chemistry" but it does cause changes in your brain and it's functioning. It's called plasticity but the thing about plasticity is that it can go in the other direction too where you can heal your brain through therapy.

@NotVaporGutz @igottoosilly48 -which is the problem, not me and the millions of other women who are traumatized and pap smears only make that worse. Why can't we demand better practice from doctors instead of having to "suck it up"

@NotVaporGutz @igottoosilly48 Okay but I have attempted suicide due to my trauma and constantly being re-traumatized through a medical procedure that should be done with pain management and care but isn't will increase my risk of attempting again. Doctors refuse to provide appropriate care-

@NotVaporGutz @igottoosilly48 Trauma-concerned care IS safety. I haven't gotten a pap smear yet but I had to get a cervical examination and it was so bad that 3 nurses had to hold me down and it sent me back YEARS in therapy. My doctor said I can start at 25 but you need to have them done every 3 years-

@420queer69 @igottoosilly48 My doctor told me she's okay with me waiting until I'm 25 because thats when most countries require it but what happens then? I turn 25 and every 3 years I have to go through that again?

@420queer69 @igottoosilly48 What if you do have a family history? Every single woman in my family on my mom's side has had cervical cancer at one point. I haven't gotten a pap smear yet but I've had just a cervical examination and I had to be held down by 3 nurses and it sent me back years in therapy-

@snowdrop_drawss This is upsetting but I'm more amassed at how bad this person is at managing things. It seems like they just wanted to get rid of a bunch of people and went by an arbitrary method. Them having no deadline is bizzare and tbh she should of given you a refund under as a one off

@HanaHoops “If anyone even gets a thought that you are a millionaire, you lose it all.” This is nearly impossible. You’d have to stay inside and be lucky that no one just thinks that you might be a millionaire for no reason whatsoever.
