#359 Is Porn (or Sex) Addiction Real? - with Gigi Engle

What are the pros and cons of watching porn? How can porn enhance someone's (sex) life, and how is it harmful? Is porn or sex addiction real? How might someone know they have an issue with viewing porn? What if I feel like porn is affecting my sexual and personal life and I want to work on it? Also, does the type of porn I watch matter? And if I once had an issue with porn does this mean I can never watch it again? The brilliant Gigi Engle answers all this and more.
