1
There's an initial issue with pornography, which is not often discussed, which is that remember, guys in particular.
2
The brain is a learning prediction machine and if I'm not trying to say that all pornography is bad, but there are good data to support the idea that
3
If your brain learns to be aroused by watching other people have sex,
4
it is not necessarily going to carry over to the ability to get aroused when you're one on one with somebody else.
5
Right.
6
Especially young kids who are consuming a lot of pornography.
7
The brain is learning sexual arousal to.
8
other people having sex.
9
- So you're going to program yourself into being a voyeur?
10
- Yeah, or just create challenges in sexual interactions with a real partner.
11
- Mary Harrington has the three laws of porno dynamics, and the second law of porno dynamics is the law of fap entropy.
12
And it says that whatever you start out wanking to will get progressively more intense over time.
13
And I think that this is sort of speaking to that ever, ever sort of escalating amount of
14
the wildness that you need to watch in order to get an ever decreasing stimulus that comes back.
15
Yeah.
16
And, you know, here I'm approaching this only through the lens of biology, right?
17
I'm not a, you know, I'm not a psychologist and I'm certainly not political in any way.
18
At least I have ideas about politics, but I just don't discuss them publicly.
19
But the But the idea here is that, you know, I'm not saying pornography as a stimulus is bad or good.
20
What I'm saying is It...
21
in its availability and its extreme forms, it's a very potent stimulus and very potent stimuli of any kind,
22
extremely palatable food, extreme pornography, extreme experiences like bungee cord jumping, those set a threshold for dopamine release.
23
And Ana will tell you that, and I'm sure she did, that the higher the dopamine peak, the bigger the drop afterwards.
24
And it's not that you drop to baseline, you drop below baseline.
25
these things aren't good or bad.
26
They just have to be controlled in a way because
27
When people are pursuing dopamine peaks over and over and over and they,
28
aren't getting them, typically it's because they've been pursuing that activity far too often.
29
And you're saying perhaps take a break from that and there may be an ability for yourself, your system to reset.
30
Right.
31
Yeah.
32
Yeah.
33
I mean, in theory, all the things
34
that we're talking about with pornography could be superimposed onto food or could be superposed onto real sex, right?
35
that one also has to be cautious there, right?
36
But the cycling back and forth between dopamine and low dopamine states, dopamine fasting as it were, but maybe just low dopamine states.
37
These are natural rhythms that existed in the nervous system.
38
We have to remember what the dopaminergic system is there for.
39
I'll say it again, I wasn't consulted the design phase, but we know as a generic form of motivation and pursuit,
40
you can imagine the human or the animal that's hungry or thirsty.
41
It needs energy to go pursue the thing.
42
So the idea that you have to eat in order to get energy, that's true, but you need energy in order to get the thing to eat.
43
So our nervous system has energy also, that's dopamine and epinephrine.
44
Yes, we use glucose and glycogen, et cetera, when we're pursuing things.
45
But the idea here is you're pursuing something and then either by smell or by sight, you think you're on the right track.
46
So you go down that track and then, ah, there it is.
47
You know, you get some berries or you get, you know, let's get prehistoric and eat it and then it gives you energy to continue this pursuit or to reproduce.
48
I mean, there's a reason why humans and other animals seek out reproduction is that every species, but certainly humans, have two innate desires built into them.
49
Whether or not they decide to actualize this
50
or not is the desire to protect young and make more of its own species.
51
Successful species does that even if people don't have children in general people care about children that
52
because they of what they represent very few people dislike children I mean there are a few mutants out there
53
that dislike children, but you always worry about those kinds of people what's happening people

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
