I am doing a sexual transmutation (i.e. no porn or masturbating) again, and came across this great article about internet porn.
What happens when you drop a male rat into a cage with a receptive female rat? First, you see a frenzy of copulation. Then, progressively, the male tires of that particular female. Even if she wants more, he has had enough. However, replace the original female with a fresh one, and the male immediately revives and gallantly struggles to fertilize her.
You can repeat this process with fresh females until he nearly dies of exhaustion. This is called the Coolidge effect—the automatic response to novel mates. And it’s what started you down the road to getting hooked on Internet porn.
Like that lab rat, you have a primitive mechanism in your brain urging you to fertilize the two-dimensional females, males (or whatever) on your screen. (Note: Coolidge effect also occurs in females. Studies show that, when given the opportunity, human females are just as promiscuous as males.)
Primitive circuits in your brain govern emotions, drives, impulses, and subconscious decision-making. They do their jobs so efficiently that evolution hasn't seen the need to change them much since before humans were humans.
