Porn and video games have ruined guys?
Did you know that the rising popularity of video games and the continued lust for porn have basically ruined the male species? The sex crazed aliens of Mass Effect coupled with the skin clad heroines of Final Fantasy have resulted in the demise of guys. And did I mention the Dead or Alive girls? Really CNN? Really?
An article on CNN recently speculated that “The Demise of Guys” is well upon us. I’ve always laughed at the people who contend that gaming is somehow responsible for murderers because it’s ridiculous. This new suggestion that guys are being dumbed down by video game arousal is another thing I’ll laugh at. Video games are not leading to the demise of guys any more than Basketball Wives is leading to the demise of women.
- You so horny?
“Young men — who play video games and use porn the most — are being digitally rewired in a totally new way that demands constant stimulation. And those delicate, developing brains are being catered to by video games and porn-on-demand, with a click of the mouse, in endless variety.
Such new brains are also totally out of sync in traditional school classes, which are analog, static and interactively passive. Academics are based on applying past lessons to future problems, on planning, on delaying gratifications, on work coming before play and on long-term goal-setting.
Guys are also totally out of sync in romantic relationships, which tend to build gradually and subtly, and require interaction, sharing, developing trust and suppression of lust at least until “the time is right.”
Wow .. just wow. So my ability to pwn in Gears of War has somehow ruined my ability to get laid? I’d like to submit quite a dents in my bed to the contrary. And I can assure you that there is no arousal that a video game can provide that would substitute for being aroused by a fit woman in real life … at least in my world. Kasumi you’re hot but you ain’t real.
I’m sure there is a chance for anyone who doesn’t go outside or interact with people to lack in the interation department. But they can opt for a variety of things to blame that on instead of playing video games.
I don’t play video games 24/7 but I’m sure there are people who come really close. Those kids might have a problem with a relationship because they’re just not good with women. It has little to do with his kill/death ratio being low or high. Some guys are just better at relationships the same way they’re just better at games. CNN suggests that the arousal with video games has distorted our senses so much so that a woman like Paula Patton or Scarlet Johannson has little chance with us. Well you can kiss my hindparts CNN .. that shit cray!
Now I’m not going to argue against the porn angle because let’s be honest … guys love porn. Some of you out there even prefer it over an actual woman. However, any rumors of my personal demise have been extremely exaggerated. What about you?

Cell phones are a bigger problem if you want to look at it that way and almost everyone has one, one brand is know as “Crack Berries” so yeah… I love how when it comes to video games they act like it’s the zombie apocalypse coming but if it’s something like alcohol or non stop cell phone use they laugh about it and light heartily talk about it.
One thing everyone has to understand though is at this point when the news talks about games and how it’s making use murderers, it’s only for views and free ad space on every gaming site. If CNN said gamers are 80% more likely to eat baby’s then non gamers, you know it’ll be on every gaming related site and blow up on all the social networks. Their ratings are so bad they need buzz no matter if it’s good or bad. Same shit for some famous people coming out of no where saying “I totally game on them game box things”.
STOP STOP STOP STOP
I’m the worse at typing out my thoughts and am a TERRIBLE writer who doesn’t know how to stop typing and use such things as grammar, so sorry for the wall of text above…. O_O
