The Neurological Hijacking of Male Sexuality
What if every click on a pornographic image was physically rewiring your brain, fundamentally altering how you perceive women? This isn't science fiction-it's the sobering reality William Struthers reveals in his groundbreaking exploration of how pornography reshapes the male mind. By integrating cutting-edge neuroscience with deep psychological insights, Struthers exposes how pornography exploits natural male neurological tendencies while corrupting our capacity for genuine intimacy. In a culture where pornography has moved from seedy corners into our pockets via smartphones, understanding its neurological impact has never been more crucial. The $57 billion global sex industry isn't just selling images-it's rewiring minds, one neural pathway at a time.
