Let's talk about pornography.
You tell me, how can you give to pixels
on a screen? So, I feel like I've spoken
about this many times in various uh
capacities about the damage of
pornography specifically on men, but uh
people are asking, so I'll elaborate a
little bit more here. The damage on men
specifically damages men and women. And
the damage for women is both women who
consume pornography as well as women who
are in relationships with men who are
the consumers of pornography. So, but I
don't want to talk about that right now.
Right now, I just want to speak about
how pornography damages men who consume
pornography.
So, a little bit of background and I've
spoken about this in a lot of my videos.
Anytime I speak about marriage, I speak
about this concept about what is
masculinity and femininity like what is
it really? Because masculinity and
femininity is not just the biological
definitions. That's the lowest level
manifestation of it. Things in the
physical world uh derive from from
spiritual archetypes. Masculinity and
femininity in in spiritual archetypes
are provider and recipient. And I've
spoken about this at length at length in
many other places. I'm not going to go
into a super uh detailed description of
it. But basically it's like this
provider recipient means a classic
example is like a teacher student the
teacher is providing you know the
student doesn't know the teacher does
know teacher teaches student listens but
what happens you know like it says uh in
the Talmud that I've learned much from
my teachers even more from my peers but
from my students I've learned most of
all that the most enrichment that a
teacher can gain is actually from a
student because a student challenges you
brings out ins sight that you would
never have had on your own. Um, and then
ultimately we'll say back to you what
you said, but in ways you're like, "Did
I say that? Really? I didn't even think
of that."
So giver and recipient, provider
recipient really is where the first
move, the provider, the initiator put
something out there, but it's really
just raw materials because what the
recipient ends up doing is giving it
back, mirroring it back, but in not just
bouncing it back like ping pong, but
upgrading it and then giving it back.
Now I said these paradigms also are are
in the biological realm. So let's talk
about it in in terms of um the most
physical uh and obvious example
uh reproduction. So the male provides
this tiny little packet of of genetic
code. So he's the provider. The woman
develops that upgrades it infinitely
because what she gives back nine months
later is infinitely greater than what
she received at the conception.
So
that's the paradigm provider recipient.
Now I've spoken about this in other
videos you know I say that when it comes
to male female relationships when it
comes to marriage like to understand
that emotional energy emotional energy
uh
has to follow these laws meaning to say
in a relationship between a man and a
woman where the woman has to initiate
the emotional energy
it's going to crash and burn. The man
has to be the one who brings it. He
comes through the door and he gives her
attention first before anything else and
he fills her up and and then when she is
filled up, she becomes literally
pregnant with that energy and then gives
birth to enough energy to fill the home.
He can't fill the home. A man cannot
fill a home with energy. Um but he can
fill his wife with energy. She can turn
around and fill the home with energy.
Okay? Like I said, I don't want to get
into a super detailed explanation of
these dynamics because I speak about it
at length in other places. But now that
you understand the basics, masculine and
feminine is provider and recipient. But
the recipient is not passive. The
recipient turns around and actually
becomes a provider.
All right? Which is why the ultimate
satisfaction that a man can have is what
he gets back from his wife after having
given it to her selflessly. He gets back
in upgraded form that which he gave to
her. Okay. Sexuality is no exception to
this.
The curse of
uh
dysfunctional
sexuality is that it is based on a
premise that a man receives sexual
pleasure from a woman. That he's getting
something from her or you know in the
worst case scenario taking something
from her whether by force or by uh you
know manipulation. God forbid in the
worst case scenario, but even in the
best case scenario, she's doing him a
favor. She's giving him something. Um,
and do you understand why that is doomed
to failure? Do you understand why it
defies the spiritual laws? It goes
against the grain of reality.
There can be no productive male female
relationship where the male is taking
something from the female that the male
didn't first implant within her.
So
here's let me just spell it out. In
healthy marriages, the sexual eb and
flow is that a man gives to his wife, he
gives to her. Um,
you know, they say I try to watch my
language on this channel because a lot
of I know I know for a fact people have
told me like children I guess sort of
intelligent children but uh watch this
channel and uh look if if your kids are
on YouTube they're seeing far worse than
Chase Tao talking about uh marital
intimacy. But at any rate let me just
try to say this in a clean way.
The definition of foreplay begins
way before the bedroom is within your
eyesight. Okay? A man comes home and he
gives attention to his wife. He's giving
to her. He's giving to her. This creates
a desire in her, a hunger. Once she has
a desire, she wants something. She wants
something from him. Now he gives her
that intimacy. He doesn't take it. It's
not a prize. It's not a it's it's it's
not he's a hunter out for his prey. It's
that he gave to her. He he aroused
within her a desire to receive and then
he gave her more. And that's the most
satisfying
for both of them. He's a total giver and
by giving he ends up receiving the most
pleasure because the greatest
satisfaction a man can have is that he's
being a selfless giver.
So here's the thing. Let's talk about
pornography.
You tell me how can you give to pixels
on a screen?
What can you do as a man that is
generous, magnanimous,
giving
with pixels on a screen?
There's nothing you can do other than
take from it. It's a totally one-sided
relationship.
So, what's happening? You're becoming a
taker.
And you're becoming a taker specifically
in the area of sexuality which sexuality
is all about male female differences
like my French friends say viva
difference
long live the difference between male
and female I know that's anathema in
today's society but yes the difference
between male and female which are
existential differences not just
biological differences but existential
differences spiritual differences. So
when a man defies that by being a taker
specifically in the area of sexuality
where his masculinity is supposed to be
most pronounced, he is going to suffer.
He's going to suffer. And there's no way
you can have a giving relationship with
pornography. You're going to say, "Oh,
you pay for the pornograph."
Okay? That's not called giving. That's
that's called a a transaction.
The the buyer gives money to get
something. It's called taking. Just like
uh
I said before, sometimes a man takes a
woman's uh physical uh intimacy. It's
not intimacy, it's the opposite of
intimacy, but he takes physical contact
with her through uh coercion, some
sometimes through manipulation. Okay?
So, sometimes through uh commerce,
through a transaction, right? But the
point is he's taking he's the taker. And
it's never going to be healthy and it's
never going to be satisfying. And the
biggest proof that it's never going to
be satisfying is
he he he he wants more right away
because it doesn't fill him. It's like
you just finished eating a meal and
you're still hungry.
So that's what makes it so destructive.
Now, we're not even done. We're not even
done because let's play this forward.
Let's say this man is married or has a
relationship with a woman. You think all
of a sudden he's going to stop being a
taker when he's with her? No. Of course
not. The pornography has trained him to
be a taker. He's going to carry that
into his intimate life with his with his
partner. And he's going to objectify
her, turn her into pixels on a screen,
meaning just a source of physical
pleasure that he can take from. And
let's set aside how demeaning that is to
her. Because I don't even want to talk
about how destructive this is to a woman
to be in that type of a dehumanizing
situation. Like that's for another we'll
make another class just about that. How
this dehumanizes and destroys women. But
let's just talk to men. As a man, do you
understand when you're in a relationship
with a woman, specifically a woman,
you're supposed to be her provider, and
you turned her into your object from
which you squeeze out, extract
satisfaction. Do you know how toxic that
is for your relationship? Do you know
there can be no intimate relationship
under such conditions? And then is it
under any wonder to you why after a
while she has nothing left to give
because you've squeezed her dry. She has
nothing left to give. Well, she lost her
passion. She lost her interest. You
squeezed her dry. Okay. And then you
say, "Well, the porn is so much more
stimulating." Yeah, I guess because you
know, you could keep squeezing it dry
and uh as soon as uh you know, I mean,
the porn never gets tired. It's just,
you know, it's it's it's recordings. It
just it never it Play it again. Play it
again, Sam. Just go back to the
beginning, right? Where whereas you're
dealing with a human being, yeah, they
get tired. They get exhausted. And if
you're treating a person like pixels,
yeah, eventually they're going to have
nothing left to give. And then you as a
man are going to go off and sulk and
say, "Why? Why? Why did she lose her
passion? Why did she why is she not into
it anymore?"
You literally squeezed her dry. That's
it. You just took the sponge and just
squeezed it out. You didn't put anything
into it. You only squeezed out of it. Of
course, it's empty. It's empty.
So
pornography in short
inverts the entire male female paradigm
by turning men into takers in the area
of sexuality where their masculinity is
supposed to be most pronounced. Get it
out of your life. Zero tolerance.
Not even one second. get it out of your
It gives you nothing productive because
like I said, the only thing productive a
man can get is something that he's given
to a woman he's devoted to and she gives
him back in upgraded fashion. Okay?
You're not gaining anything.
You're not even getting pleasure because
ultimately, like I said, it's like
eating a meal and then being hungry
right away again. So, it it it's just
destroying you as a man. It's destroying
your masculinity.
Eliminate it completely from your life
and you will be so much healthier and
and so much more of a man.
